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.

Wonderful course
I am enjoying this course so much more than I expected. Not only is it very thorough in preparing me to lead forest experiences, the information is very valuable to me in my own journey with the plant kingdom.

Sylvotheraphy Forest bathing course A Healing Journey
The Sylvotheraphy Forest bathing course is very comprehensive and I learnt a great deal and look forward to starting my forest bathing journey. The only downside was it is US based so didn't get to learn about all the Australian forest related plants and trees and some of the quiz questions could of been worded alot better but for the value it was wonderful and great to have the audio to listen to along side the downloads of the modules.

Superb
Although I don't believe one can become a full fledged Wilderness Survival Instructor, it most definitely provides a basic level of knowledge. That if practiced and memorized, can lead to a solid intermediate level of knowledge.
