Upcoming Courses
Transforming Negative Emotions
December 16th, 2025 - Victoria
Anxiety, anger, resentment, sadness, grief, guilt, overwhelm...and the list goes on. We all experience them to some degree and feel how they drain our energy, steal our peace of mind, and drag us away from feeling content, calm, and joyful. Why does this happen? Where do negative emotions come from? What can we do when they arise? This class, "Transforming Negative Emotions" will explore the timeless wisdom contained in the psycho-spiritual traditions of the world, through the lens of Pneuma Transpersonal Psychology.
Death & Rebirth with Maite Pardo Sol
*Vancouver, Dates TBA Soon!
An intensive weekend to review the concepts related to death and the process of dying from a three-fold perspective: physical, psychological and spiritual or mystical. The aim is for you to obtain the keys that allow access to a more harmonious, full and happy life.
Inner Knowledge & Pneuma Breathwork
January 28th - April 8th, 2025 - Vancouver
Rooted in both ancient wisdom and modern understanding, Inner Knowledge focuses on the analysis and investigation of human nature, the study of the values of consciousness, and the transcendence of the ego. It draws from the universal map of self-realization offered by the world’s traditions - pointing toward an objective that goes beyond the healing of physical or psychological symptoms: awakening to who you truly are.

Pneuma Institute has been established for over 40 years globally. We are a school of transpersonal psychology internationally recognized through the European Transpersonal Association. We have local institute chapters all over the world with facilitators that share the essential teachings with local students who seek to develop themselves psychospiritually and advance in the development of consciousness.
The Pneuma team includes professionals in the fields of psychology, psychiatry, medicine, philosophy, education and other fields.
The founder of the Institute, Juan Ruiz Naupari has developed an effective breathing practice called Pneuma Breathwork after years of research in ancient traditions. This practice leads to expanded states of consciousness.
In Vancouver, over the last 15 years, hundreds of Pneuma Breathwork sessions have been held, impacting thousands of students.
Locations
Our headquarters are in Mount Shasta, Calfornia and we have over 20 other locations in Mexico, Europe, South America, Russia, India, and Australia.
“Modern psychology studies only the most trivial aspects of human nature. It focused on pathologies and forgot about the ethical and moral values, inner strength, and spiritual dimension that reside in the human soul. The real goal of ancient deep psychology is to awaken consciousness.”
-Juan Ruiz Naupari
