LADIES' HENNA-FEST! NOV 27th!!!!


Hi friends!


Inspired by my time lately doing henna tattoos on women of all ages, I have opened registration for a Henna Workshop on Saturday, Nov. 27th at 4 p.m. I will tattoo everyone in attendance, but I will also have extra bottles of henna on hand so participants can learn to make their own designs and have plenty of opportunity to practice them!!!


And if you simply MUST keep on practicing, bottles of henna will be available for purchase (and I will be accepting pre-orders for Christmas!)


This workshop is ideal for moms, teens, tweens and artistic henna lovers of all ages :-) Come unwind and recharge after a busy holiday with family.


Cost will be $12 per person or $20 for mother/daughter duos. Attendees will receive a design booklet and at least one tattoo!


Please email me for a registration form :-) and I hope to see you there! *


*Where?! you ask? Depends on the number of registrants. The most likely location will be my Orchard Street home but if space becomes an issue, I will hold the workshop upstairs at Roots Natural Foods in Leominster.

FROM THE BAY STATE TO THE OCEAN STATE


I never truly know who is reading this blog/website, so it can't hurt to plug a friend in Rhode Island, can it? Maybe someone is out there googling "Rhode Island Doula" or "Henna Tattoos in RI" or any of the very specific things that I am writing about at this moment.


My nearest and dearest friend in the universe has begun to spread her mama-wings and enter the gentle world of working-with-children.


Not quite Stay-at-Home-Motherhood and not entirely Work-Outside-the-Home-Motherhood, I am noticing a rising trend among women to find unique and enlightened ways to both work and be a present, mindful parent. For some, myself included, this is the only way to do it -- financially and emotionally.


For my friend Kim McNiece, a fellow mamas-of-3-girls, Blessed Beginnings (located in Wakefield, RI) is her beautiful way of emerging from the cocoon of early motherhood and finding a way to spread her love and passion with her children by her side. As a gifted Doula and Massage Therapist (how lucky am I to have such a friend? If only she could fix old VWs I would be even more in love with her than I already am), she has teamed up with a small group of women who support and enhance her vision.


I hope you'll join me and Kim this weekend on :


Saturday, October 16th from 4 p.m.

at her storefront
135 Main St., Wakefield, RI

for Henna, Massage, and all kinds of fun things


going on in the downtown Wakefield area. If anyone with a beautiful pregnant belly would like private belly henna, please contact me at 978-660-2394 and we can set something up before the main event.


If nothing else, stop by and say hello and laugh with us...I look forward to many years of connection and kinship with Blessed Beginnings :-)

What people are saying...

Molly B. says..."My 2 1/2 year old just finished up a 6 week session of fun, yoga, art and play! He had such a great time, and actually learned some poses: dog, butterfly, tree, and cat! We can't wait for the next session, thank you Mandy!"



Brenda D. says..."The kids enjoyed your class!! They really liked the music and J said he was very relaxed after Yoga. For him to be relaxed is a feat in itself. Kudos to you!!! We noticed that the next morning J seemed very relaxed. You might have to move in with us if Yoga calms him down!!!! :-)"



Lisa says..."[The yoga class] was GREAT! The kids had so much fun and there wasn’t a time when little girl laughter didn’t fill the air. "



Susan M. says..."Mandy’s engaging personality makes EVERY child feel special and welcome. She has an incredible talent for interacting with young children and finds interesting ways to make learning fun. Her ability to let children explore alternative ways of doing things makes creativity flow beyond normal boundaries. Her prices are more than reasonable and you can tell she does it for the LOVE of it as well.”



Beverly L. says...“[Mandy] brings a smile to every face as she walks in the door with her mats, games and positive energy. The children love her and they love their time spent turning and twisting into pretzels, animals and inanimate objects as Mandy teaches them that yoga is healthy and fun.”
