Dyami Nason-Regan

Dyami Nason-Regan is a nature-based mentor, naturalist, permaculture designer and cultural creative. Before attending Gaia University, Dyami spent four years building her capacity as a mentor in nature connection. She has run programs through Wild Earth, Vermont Wilderness School and Earth Arts.

As a Gaia University MSc associate, Dyami deepened and specialized her work as a mentor. Her project work has been focused on “Restoring the Earth-Based Feminine and the Culture of Moontime Connection.” Her present work in this field is centered around the transition of teenage girls into young womanhood. She envisions a culture that supports girls to build authentic connection to themselves, their sisters and the Earth – a culture that honors menarche as a beautiful and powerful gift of womanhood. Dyami is currently collaborating on a new program for girls: Crescent Moon Girls: A Journey of Coming into Fullness, which will be hosted by Wild Earth.

Dyami is also a designer and project manager for AppleSeed Permaculture, a design and install business,which she co-owns with her partner, Gaia University graduate and advisor, Ethan Roland. Whether it is her work as permaculture designer or nature-based mentor, Dyami is passionate about fostering deep Earth connection. She believes that from this place of connection all of our relations will be healed. She received her master's degree in 2011 and will be working with Gaia U associates as an advisor.

Gaia University has been an incredible support in my actualization as a world-changer. What a gift to be validated by an educational institution in my passions and vision for the changes that I want to see happen in my community and in myself.
