Plant Therapy Organic Thyme Essential Oil

The herb thyme is a tasty, time-honored herb that most of us add to just about everything — meats, vegetables, soups, stews, and more. But when it comes to health and healing, thyme has a history of use that’s as long as it’s use in our kitchens.

Thyme has long been associated with the idea of courage and strength. In fact, thyme comes from the Greek word ‘thumos’, which loosely translates to a desire to fight against the injustices of the world. Roman soldiers would bathe in thyme before going to battle to increase courage and strength. In middle-ages of England, knights went to battle with sprigs of thyme embroidered on their scarves. Scotsmen preparing for battle would drink a tea of wild thyme.

So, if you, like our wild warriors before us, need a little more courage, strength, and vitality in your life, Plant Therapy Organic Thyme Essential Oil may be just the thing for you.
