about

who I am...

My name is Karen Hsu.  I am a mother of two young children, wife to a wonderful man for nine years, + I am continually trying to keep my family healthy.


why I started oil + bubble...

my journey with Young Living Essential Oils began in July 2013, when a good friend of mine invited me to attend a class about essential oils + learn their natural health benefits.  I was quite skeptical about their healing powers + signed up with the Basic Kit (the cheapest...shhh!).  

two days after the kit arrived (with lavender + peppermint oils), my 2-year-old daughter came down with a UTI after dinner.  she was screaming + it was painful knowing that I couldn't do anything until the morning (to call the doctor's office).  I remembered my oils + contacted my good friend who recommended I apply the lavender essential oil to her lower abdomen + back.  I did so before she went to bed.

in the morning, I reapplied again.

at noon, she wasn't crying anymore during urination. she wasn't complaining at all.

miracle!

thus began my journey with essential oils + I want to share my experiences with you.


what oil + bubble means...

oil + bubble is a play off of a quote in Shakespeare's MacBeth ("double, double, toil + trouble").  I am a writer of YA fantasy + am currently working on a novel about three sisters who have Gifts, much like the three witches in MacBeth tell fortunes.  the sisters encounter a father-figure who uses essential oils for healing. if you want to check out my author site, come on over!

oil + bubble also refers to the process in which Young Living Essential Oils are created (via steam distillation).
