Lana Lanaia (Daniela Lanaia)

Lana lives in the Scottish Highlands and has spent much of her life exploring the landscapes and sacred places of these Islands. She is a facilitator, musician & sound healer known for her ‘crystalline voice’ and ‘music that infuses the heart’. She tends the earth, and creates healing spaces through her music, and offerings. 

Lana is the female singer/songwriter within the duo Anima, and the creator of Aluna Healing, where she shares Sound Healing, Retreats, Women’s journeys, and One to One sessions. She has been teaching classes and working as a holistic practitioner for over 20 years, and leading retreats for over 15 years. She is also a creative collaborator with other courses and events, that inspire remembrance and connection with each other and the Earth.

Lana’s inspiration flows from her deep love for the Earth; of wild landscapes, forests, mountains, rivers, oceans, sacred sites, and the stars. She lives close to the land, and has over many years, been learning  from indigenous & healing traditions, ways that we may rekindle our relationship with self, Nature and our starlight origins. She is passionate about re-awakening the ancient~living~wisdom within our hearts and lands; weaving remembrance that we are all children of the Earth.

 

"Dear Lana, I believe you don’t have to say a word, your presence and true watchfulness, your natural energy is beauty full and alive with grace. Such wisdom in one young in the earth. I honour your steps. Gratefully..." ~ Phyllida Anam-Aire

 

A personal share:

Aluna Healing is an Offering of Love from my Heart for Mother Earth & Her Children

Since childhood, I have been drawn towards the healing arts, and the magic of the Earth.

I am blessed with parents who encouraged me as a child and young woman to follow my creativity and dreams - to follow the call and path of my heart; as I journeyed, stumbled, fell, healed and opened my wings to fly & travel through this sacred journey of life.

I have been immersed in creative arts and explored intuitive healing from a young age. Studying Fine Art at university in the beautiful city of Bath, gave me the freedom to explore and delve into connection with Nature and the Goddess, and express that intimate connection through painting and photography. The three years of my degree was spent between the art studio and with the woodlands, springs and stone circles, listening to the land, and experiencing her living presence manifest in form within the trees, rocks and rivers. 

The stone circles, sacred sites and wild places of these lands have continued to fascinate and call to my heart, and are a source of inspiration and remembrance that ever continues to deepen. 

I have sung and played guitar since I was twelve, though was very shy and rarely shared my music. When I was 22, I was living with a Najavo elder and his family on Turtle Island, and one day he told me to go and sing on a stage in a bar we were in. That was the first time I had ever sang in public, and in that moment, overcame my fear.

I have travelled internationally sharing music and retreats, have lived for many years in the quietness of Nature, gardening and tending the earth, while being gardened and shaped by Her, and am blessed to have and continue to learn from elders and wisdom keepers of the Americas and the Isles of Albion (Britain). I am deeply grateful for their teachings and presence, and for the living wisdom held within the rocks, stones, waters, winds, trees, mountains and spirit of these lands.

 

I have been learning and working with healing practices for over 25 years, and continue to deepen and grow. My study and training includes: sound healing & holistic voicework; shamanic healing (with mentors & teachers from the Americas & British Isles);  energy healing, (including Touching The Light Level II practitioner); yoga (as a student & teacher for 18 years); holistic health & bodywork (including Altai Massage Therapy advanced practitioner)ministry training (Minister of Walking Prayer, Center for Sacred Studies); inter-faith studies, megalithic & celtic/druid lore & ways; Nature connection; earth stewardship (with indigenous elders & healers); permaculture & biodynamic gardening (10 years working as a horticultural gardener and 9 years living off grid in the Scottish Highlands, planting and growing a biodynamic garden, medicinal plants & perennial food forest garden).

All of this, intertwined with my own journey of life, is woven into my work, and offerings.

 

I live in the Scottish Highlands, with the land & gardens, and the rivers of sound & music
