Hi, I am Nandhitha, the heart behind Happy Hearts Community and Happy Terra—spaces born from my deep love for nature, art, and human connection:)​
In the past, I worked as a software developer and then I quit my job to pursue a career that connects me with nature. As I returned to my childhood love for painting, I began questioning the ingredients in my art supplies. This curiosity led me to experiment with non-toxic pigments made from plants and soil, opening a new way of creating that felt aligned and meaningful. Through my workshops and retreats, I hope to remind people of the beauty of slowing down, reconnecting with the earth, and creating from the heart.
Currently, I live on our farmland in Tamil Nadu, India, where we are learning to live a conscious life close to nature. Here, I spend my days breathing with the trees, painting with the earth, and cooking with plants from our garden:)
One of my dreams is to invite people to our farm—to share the quiet joy of living close to nature. To nourish them with simple, homegrown food, to guide their hands as they turn plants and earth into paints, and to offer a gentle space where they can reconnect with themselves and the natural world.
