VALUES
We respect all religions and spiritual traditions. We value inner wisdom and superior emotion which enables us to walk towards a future of coexistence, decency, freedom, compassion and brotherhood with others and with nature.

PNEUMA BREATHWORK
Pneuma Breathwork is a revolutionary, deep and easy practice that gives natural access to extraordinary or transpersonal states of consciousness. These states allow for the exploration of the more subtle and refined inner dimensions of the psyche.
The objective of Pneuma Breathwork is to open our perception to the deeper unknown contents of our psyche in order to make contact with our spiritual essence, with inner peace, and to gradually heal our lives.
