Let Tina be your guide to life in the countryside!
You might be sensing that the city lifestyle is no longer for you, since you:
Know deep down that you want a creative and fun lifestyle in nature, that nourishes people and the earth and you don’t know where to start.
Find yourself fantasizing about a life where you’re utilising your gifts, ideas and passions to earn a meaningful livelihood — yet you are trapped in routines that leave you uninspired and you think it’s impossible or too late
I see you! That’s why I’m here: to remind you that your regenerative, creative lifestyle in the countryside is possible, and to help you design your transition step by step.

'Moving to the Countryside'
Tina’s passion, enthusiasm and genuine care are three of her qualities that stand out. She is ever-evolving, her energy is lifting and magnetic. The way she makes connections between people and concepts then weaves them into something greater has been inspiring to witness!
Kathryn, best friends for 30 years
Tina found me in her father’s village and I chose her because she loves the countryside! She takes me on adventures to spectacular nature spots. Even though she is super busy with her courses, caring for divorced aged parents and establishing a land-based eco-project, we still go for walks together at least two times a day!

Personal Awareness
Personal Awareness
Moving to the Countryside is more than a logistical move. It requires preparation on a mental, emotional, spiritual and practical level. Our outer transition is inextricably linked to our inner transition. You need to observe what limiting beliefs and repeating patterns could be holding you back, tune into your needs and deeper “why” and align with practices that activate you. Using each principle as inspiration, we understand what inner work is necessary for our transition and we put it into practice!

Take the leap into your countryside story — with clarity, creativity, and support.
10% of all proceeds go to our Non-Profit Organisation ‘Kompostopia’ with the purpose of creating regenerative experiences which support people’s transition to the countryside in Greece.
Hi! I’m Tina Lymberis.
I grew up thinking city life and a daily job were the only way. But 5 years in corporations — with people I didn’t like, selling things I’d never consume— made me sick.
In 2008, I broke free and moved from Australia to Greece. Two years later, I discovered permaculture and began my countryside journey. Since then, I’ve moved over 15 times in the countryside, becoming a permaculture pioneer and learning what it really takes to transition well.
I’ve also been exploring and sharing what I wish school had taught me: Communication, Collaboration, Earth Regeneration, and Artistic Co-Creation.
In 2024, I started living in a mobile home, on a piece of land on the edge of a small village, among the oak trees with my dog Zen. I am experimenting with different ways to integrate into the local community. I joined the local theatre group, started dance classes and in December 2025, I hosted my first in a series of ‘Community Connection Events’, which combine group activities, education, sharing, food, and facilitated activities to get to know each other’s needs and offers, to connect and work together to develop our region.
In my course ‘Moving to the Countryside’, I plan to share my learnings and many more ideas about how to integrate into countryside communities!

Add personalised healing sessions with Aspasia
Every journey needs supported healing. Here is a chance to work with my personal pranic psychotherapist, Aspasia Provou, through 3x60min healing sessions. With a unique blend of energy work and life coaching, these sessions are specifically tailored to your journey and will clear the energetic patterns of fear, trauma, and limiting beliefs that keep you from moving forward.
I’m glad you made it so far!
This means you’re already seeding the condition for your transition.
Just like any idea, your transition begins the moment you dare to dream it. Once the seed is sowed, it’s only a matter of cultivating the right conditions for it to sprout.
If you see the possibility, it’s your response-ability to bring your vision into reality!
FAQS
1. What are the course dates and requirements?
The launch date will be announced once the course is ready. Please sign up to receive email updates!
Even though the course is self-paced, we suggest you complete one lesson every week for 12 weeks, so that you maintain your momentum and have more chances of transitioning successfully AND attend the monthly connection calls to ask your questions, learn from each other and support each other during this process.
2. Is this course right for me if I’m just dreaming of moving to the countryside but want to stay in the city and live regeneratively?
Yes and yes! Whether you’re fantasizing about countryside living or already preparing, this journey helps you gain clarity, confidence, and direction. Although there are things you can do to regenerate your lifestyle in the city, for me full regeneration and liberation is possible when we are living in more natural environments. Having said that, if you’re still set on the city, you will learn what it takes to live more regeneratively there, since the permaculture design principles can be applied anywhere!
It might be a good idea to attend the webinar and ask your questions.
3. What if I’m at the Silver Stage, planning my retirement?
This experience is also perfect for those of you entering the Silver Stage of life and are planning your ‘inspirement’ (as opposed to ‘retirement’!). You will gain a broader perspective and many ideas on how you can plan your Silver Stage! Keep in mind that I am designing an experience specifically for us, called Transition to a regenerative ‘inspirement’ – which I will deliver if at least 10 people ask for it. Contact me if you are interested.
4. What will I learn in this course and what is included?
First of all, this is no simple course. It’s an adventure! It’s an exploration! We explore how permaculture can guide you to take personal response-ability for designing your regenerative lifestyle in the countryside. I fuse artistic expression (such as rhyming, storytelling, singing and more!) with personal awareness and permaculture design principles and get you co-creating with your fellow students.
You will have access to 12 pre-recorded lessons (10-20 minutes duration per lesson), each one going into detail about how you can apply one permaculture design principle to your transition.
AND
I will be hosting one group call every month (Connection Calls), dedicated to answering your questions and supporting you well beyond the end of the course. They are also a great opportunity to connect with other students. These calls are included in the course program. As long as I am running these calls, you are welcome to take part at no additional cost. I know, no brainer!
In other words: my support continues indefintely!
5. Do I need land or a house in the countryside to join?
Not at all. This experience supports you at any stage of your transition, even if you:
> are still in the city and only beginning to plan your countryside move,
> you plan to stay in the city and are exploring options
> plan to plant yourself in a village with no land
> are eyeing out a piece of land to buy or rent to create a permaculture paradise
> just want to plonk yourself in the middle of nowhere for some peace and quiet…
6. Will this experience help me plan my transition to the countryside?
Yes, of course! Alongside inspiration, you’ll get practical tools for livelihood design and regenerative lifestyle planning so your move feels doable and you are setting yourself up for success.
7. What is the difference between a normal lifestyle and a regenerative lifestyle?
My view: there is no such thing as normal! We consider a ‘normal lifestyle’ one where we are living out our deep programming of a conventional lifestyle which trains us to serve a system which extracts nature’s (and ours) resources to produce stuff that is mostly useless.
This life goes completely against our natural rhythm, and drains us (and our earth) of our energy. Our mainstream education system and culture is misaligned with our true nature! This is why I believe that our world is suffering on all levels right now: personally, collectively, spiritually, economically and environmentally.
I’m advocating for a natural lifestyle – a regenerative lifestyle. One which gives us energy, which can be measured in abundance of joy, finances, relationships, resources, fresh organic food, clean water, comfortable housing and everything we need to thrive.
One where we are doing what we love, while caring for ourselves, each other and the earth. One where we are having fun…because guess what: our lifestyle can only be regenerative IF we are having fun!
8. Is there a refund policy?
Yes, you have a 14 day money-back guarantee. If you decide that the course isn’t the right fit for you, just let us know by emailing us within the first 14 days of joining and we’ll happily refund your payment.
We want everyone in our community to feel confident and satisfied with their purchase. Please note that after the first 14 days, we don’t give refunds.
9. What’s included in the Personalized Coaching with Tina?
This package is intentionally limited to 5 spots, so I can devote my full attention to you and walk beside you as we design your transition plan.
As one person balancing my business, my clients, and my own personal life, I keep this offering small on purpose — to ensure that every client feels genuinely supported, seen, and cared for.
Alongside the Q&A after each live lesson (already included in the course), you’ll receive three private 90-minute coaching sessions. In these sessions, I will dive into your specific transition plan and guide you in applying the course teachings directly to your work.
Together, we can:
– Work through the reality of your transition plan
– Refine your livelihood options so they truly resonate
– Build or re-structure your lifestyle to be regenerative
– And much more, tailored to your exact needs
This is your chance to receive hands-on guidance, personalized strategies, and deep support — helping you ground your countryside desire.
10. What’s included in the Personalized Healing with Aspasia?
🚀 Three 1:1 Healing Sessions (60mins each)
You already know the life you long for — more natural, more free, more aligned with who you truly are. But sometimes invisible barriers stand in the way: fear, self-doubt, procrastination, or unresolved wounds that quietly drain your energy and confidence.
These healing sessions are designed to dissolve those blocks at their root. Using Pranic Healing Psychotherapy and E-Healing, we’ll gently clear the energetic patterns of fear, trauma, and limiting beliefs that keep you from moving forward.
✨ Release stuck emotions and old traumas stored in your energy field
✨ Heal the roots of procrastination, low self-esteem, and self-sabotage
✨ Strengthen your inner power, clarity, and courage
✨ Reconnect with your authentic self and align with your vision
You’ll be deeply supported in a safe, compassionate container, with guidance that blends energetic healing, intuitive insight, and practical integration.
🌿 Most importantly: You’ll feel lighter, freer, and truly empowered to take those life-changing steps — with clarity, courage, and self-trust.

12. I am not sure if I am ready for this? I still have more questions!
That’s completely okay. Big transitions take courage. Life takes courage! If you’re unsure, I invite you to a free webinar (scroll up this page for more info) where your questions will be answered and/or to book a free 20 minute clarity call (link coming soon). Together we’ll explore where you are, what you’re longing for, and whether this journey feels aligned for you — no pressure, just space to listen and discover. At the very least, you will go away with some inspiration that you can apply right away.
Your input has been so nourishing for my young mind. You have really opened my eyes to paths I hadn’t seen before and shown me that if I trust myself and the universe, when I surrender and accept things, things will start flowing naturally. And they did! I am already channelling this energy into many creative projects. From my heart to yours: THANK YOU!
Miriam, Student
Tina is a spirited and gifted teacher. She knows her permaculture and teaches thoroughly and with care for large and small details. Having translated my book ‘earth user’s guide to permaculture’ into Greek, she knows the material better than I do. She is passionate about its relevance for Greece and her future. Having taught with her I am in full admiration of her light touch and local experience.
