what is Henna?
Healing Henna Blessings
Henna
Henna comes from a plant that is then dried up into powder and blended with essential oils, lemon, sugar and spring water and then applied to the skin. It lasts anywhere from a week to 10 days.
Henna is a safe, natural and TEMPORARY body art.
All henna paste is organic, 100% plant-based.
What is the origin of henna?
Option for Retreat Leaders
The art of henna has been practiced for over 5000 years in Pakistan, India, Africa and the Middle East. Some documentation dates it to over 9000 years old. Because henna has natural cooling properties, people of the desert, for centuries, have been using henna to help control their body temperature. They would make a paste from the crushed dried leaves of the henna plant and soak their palms and soles of the feet in it to get a cooling affect. The cooling sensation was felt throughout the body for as long as the henna stain remained on their skin. Initially, as the stain faded away, it left patterns on the skin's surface which led to ideas of making designs for decorative purposes. In the ancient Egyptian times even mummies wore henna designs and it is documented that Cleopatra herself used henna for decorative purposes.

1. Henna As An Add-On Service At The Retreat
This option allows your guests to book and pre pay their henna session directly with me. I’ll provide you a booking link to share on your website and social media for those that registered for your retreat. I’d need 8-10 pre bookings to be made before the time of the retreat and I’ll also take “walk-ins” .
2. Henna As Your Gift To Your Guests:
You’ll be gifting a henna blessing to all of your guests. This option is a 2 hour minimum at $350. (Each additional hour of service is $150) This includes henna blessings as many as 30 of your guests during this time . If less than 30 guests, henna designs will be more intricate in detail and slightly larger.
