about
I’m Lana Power, I am a neuroscientist, educator, researcher, facilitator, and breathworker, based in London, England.
My mission is the sacred marriage work of the scientist and the mystic; the building of the bridge between modern neuroscience research and ancient practices for the integration of the physiological impulse towards survival and the conscious impulse towards aliveness.
My passion is research and public education on the human nervous system to facilitate the embodiment and integration of physiology and consciousness. My current research focuses on the physiology of trauma, resiliency, breath, altered states of consciousness and the human stress response.
I am a lifelong student of systems, historian of the body, and ethnographer of emotion. I have studied History (BA), Neuroscience (MSc), specializing in developmental and evolutionary neurobiology.
I trained as a breathwork facilitator with Alchemy of Breath, and Systemic Constellation facilitator with the Centre for Systemic Constellations in London. I am also in my first years of training with Somatic Experiencing International.
