Stela Hristova – Sachi is the creator and facilitator of a series of creative workshops dedicated to India, focused on beauty and femininity, henna painting, and Vedic cuisine. She teaches Indian culture at New Bulgarian University.
For centuries, henna has colored the path of the feminine heart. Painted for beauty and health, the Indian woman has passed down her love for mehendi from ancient times to the present.
The brighter and longer-lasting the henna on the hands, the stronger and more lasting the bond with the beloved. This is why a special henna-painting ritual precedes every wedding and every celebration.
Henna has proven therapeutic and healing properties, which makes it an essential part of the ancient medicines of Eastern and Southern cultures.
