Let's get ready for Diwali

It's that time of year again and henna is appropriate for just about every celebration. I created this video per viewer request. I created the design myself and it will be featured in an upcoming ebook. I love the double mandala connected by dainty jewelry like chains.

Hope you enjoy and Happy Holidays!

Mandalas sacred symbols in henna


Mandala is Sanskrit for circle, and has a sacred and deeply spiritual meaning for many. This henna season one can find mandalas just about anywhere from palms, tops of the feet, even on shoulder blades.
It is said that mandalas have a calming property, allowing the mind to focus and filter out the stress of the day. Even if this isn't a part of your belief system, you can't help but get lost in the intricate patterns that complete a mandala. 


After being sick all week and on the road to recovery I decided to henna myself. The mandala was a natural choice and allowed me to filter out the icky that was making its way out, and focusing on an upcoming exciting weekend. 



Thank you for stopping by. Health and wellness in your future.  Peace and blessings be upon you.

Mehndi Mandala Festival or Party Henna Design

This month I was invited to apply henna for wedding guests at the Nritya Mandala Mahavihara temple. Inspired by the artwork and name of the temple, a lot of mandalas were applied. I decided to recreate one of my favorite manadalas applied that day. This manadala is really easy to apply and is perfect for henna parties or festivals.

Thank you to bride Alicia and groom Triratna for having me be a part of your special day.
