At Lana, we acknowledge that the practice is often considered taboo and surrounded by significant shame. Yet, despite this, there is a growing interest among consenting adults who are curious and eager to explore. Lana is rarely discussed by parents or included in school sex education, even though it is, for millions of people worldwide, a core way of experiencing intimacy. Sadly, many will live their lives without ever having the opportunity to explore it.

The experience can be intoxicatingly pleasurable, not only for the physical sensations but also for the emotional release it provides, especially for those who typically embrace more dominant roles. However, it is important to understand that the practice is not limited to submission—there are many ways to experience pleasure through it. The adult industry has sparked both curiosity and misconceptions, with some forming unrealistic expectations about the process.

When we created our guide, we wanted to emphasize that preparation is universal—it all boils down to colon and gut health. Our aim is to empower you with the knowledge to better understand your body. It is you who will ultimately know when you are ready to explore Lana, and we hope that your journey begins through self-experimentation.

We’ve condensed our approach into four simple steps to guide you.

Ultimately, through learning about your body and embracing experimentation, you will uncover a new and unique form of pleasure.
