Get back to the basics
Regular hand washing makes spreading germs hard. It’s just as important to keep hard surfaces clean. Make sure you’re putting wellness first at home and on the go by simply washing up!
“Keeping hands clean is one of the most important steps we can take to avoid getting sick and spreading germs to others. Many diseases and conditions are spread by not washing hands with soap and clean running water.” Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

1. Wash hands with soap for at least 20 seconds.
If you’re keeping track, that’s the “Happy Birthday” song from beginning to end twice. Be sure to lather and scrub the back of your hands, between fingers, and under your nails. Also, dry your hands thoroughly.
If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer such as Thieves® Waterless Hand Sanitizer.

2. Cough or sneeze into your elbows and avoid touching your face, mouth, eyes, or nose.
If you must touch your face, make certain your hands are clean.
3. Spray down hard surfaces and frequently touched objects like shopping cart handles,
doorknobs, remotes, tables, and counters.
Remember: Preventive measures are your first line of defense to staying well!
Take it easy
Sometimes, despite your best efforts, you may still get sick. When you catch a bug, be intentional about taking care of yourself.
1. Diffuse Thieves® and R.C.™ throughout the day. These oils help provide comfort when
you’re not feeling your best. You can also dilute and apply them to the bottoms of your feet
before bed or in the morning.
2. Keep hydrated! Make sure to drink plenty of water and fluids to help replace fluids, loosen
mucous, and aid in clearing congestion.
3. Rest and recover. Proper rest can help support your immune system’s ability to fight
infection so you can get feeling better sooner. When possible, stay home. Unless seeking
medical care, avoid contact with others and going to work, school, or other public areas.
