Alosha Lynov is a Bio-Architect who combines the principles of Earthships, the vision of Antoni Gaudí, and the elegance of Sacred Geometry to create autonomous Living BioShelter Organisms—self-heating, self-cooling, and self-sustaining structures.
He founded Bio-Veda Academy of Bio-Architecture for the purpose of educating and empowering people to design and build their own eco-homes. To date, the academy has provided hands-on video courses in ecological construction and water self-sufficiency to more than 3,500 students worldwide.
With over 25 years of experience, Alosha has dedicated his career to integrating biomimicry, permaculture, and sustainable technologies into architecture. His unique approach emphasizes biomimetic forms and systems that are structurally stronger, more cost-effective, and more harmonious with natural landscapes than conventional building methods.
Alosha’s path began in the late 1990s, initially working with spandex sculptures for event design. In 2007, he trained in Mexico at a flying concrete workshop, where he mastered the creation of Gaudí-inspired ferrocement shells. He later applied this knowledge to his own land, building a 700 sq. ft. seashell-inspired structure and developing a fully self-sufficient ecosystem.
His work has taken him across five continents, where he has studied with global experts and taught workshops in BioTecture, permaculture, and water self-sufficiency. Today, his focus remains on developing and teaching innovative building techniques that enable individuals and communities to live sustainably and resiliently.
This course expanded my range of therapeutic offerings by demanding a much deeper level of understanding of the approach than I had anticipated, increasing my comfort in offering this type of therapy to clients in the near future. Thank you for making this accessible!
This course was full of information in an easy to understand format and if you take the time to fully understand the modules, the quizes and test is not that difficult.
I wasn't sure of what to expect in taking this course, but after reading and studying Forest Therapy I feel like I have the knowledge and skills to go forward and lead sessions. I was impressed with the amount of course detail and hours spent on the curriculum. I feel like I have the knowledge and details to talk about Forest Therapy with confidence. I am so happy I took this online course.
I really like that the course was comprehensive in encompassing sociological, geopolitical, economic, and ethical discussions. Permaculture is not just a set of techniques that is not committed to any socio-political worldview. Instead, it does not shy away from the essential transformative nature of permaculture principles and how that can and should help shape the way we live.
This was awesome! I feel like it was beautifully designed and easy to follow. I also feel like it did a great job of breaking it down into equal parts history and plant usage.
I enjoyed the course immensely, I appreciated that you can print out the course as well as follow along online with audio. also, it took me over a year to complete because of my busy schedule, so i appreciated that i could come back anytime.
This course was a delight to take. It was very user friendly and I enjoyed the coursework a lot, it gave me much to think about, learn and new avenues to explore. It really has helped my self-development nature connection and confidence in running a slyvotherapy session.
I am a beginner Herbalist, interested in the health and well-being of my family and loved ones. I felt this was a great course to start with. It was very informative while also feeling beginner level friendly. I have learned so much during this course and have been able to start applying herbal remedies into my own life and offer suggestions to ones close to me. Taking this course has amplified my interest in herbalism and created a great foundation, for which I will be able to bloom.
