Journey Back to Eden and Learn How to Design your Life in Harmony with the Earth.
How is Nature designed? What can Earth herself teach us when we have eyes to see, ears to listen, and hearts to feel?
The patterns that we find in the natural world are secret whispers of Earth’s hidden intelligence. The intricate veins in leaves, the winding course of rivers, the migration path of birds, the spots on a leopard’s back… all can teach us surprising things about how we can design our human systems and habitats in ways that are symbiotic and regenerative for our planet.

MEET YOUR TEACHER, MEHTA MAYAH
A woman of the wild, I grew up on sixty acres of Canadian woodland and spent her early years running through fields, building forts in the forest, tending to her father’s gardens, and saving tadpoles from shrinking puddles in late spring. Her deep sensitivity to the energy of the natural world allowed her to develop telepathic communication with the plants and creatures around her. After completing a Permaculture Design Certification program in 2016, she understood what her experiences as a child were trying to show her- that there is a way of allowing Earth Herself to speak to us, guide us, inhabit our minds and lead us towards a higher evolution as symbiotic stewards of the planet. She now teaches Permaculture with a spiritual twist, to help awaken others to the magick of being a human synchronized in Mind, Body, Heart and Soul with Earth.
What my students are saying…
Kate Isabelle Davis
Mayah is a fierce and humble galactic goddess – an intuitive channel – a spiritual encyclopedia. If you are looking to take the next step in your healing journey (or just to have some mind-blowing conversations) I would recommend her as a supportive, loving, experienced healer and guide. Thank you for your wisdom, guidance, vulnerability, strength, and friendship.
