Founder Story

Ramiro - Founder of Pradisi
Ramiro, Founder

I created Pradisi to share these tools and create a space where others can find their own answers.

The Calling

The first time I visited the land, it was like entering a magical forest. I heard my spirit clearly: "Set up a retreat center." I ignored it at first. Then it happened a second time: "Get involved with this place." I ignored it again. When the opportunity came, the message was clear: "Yes, do it." I had many doubts, as it is so different from the finance business world I come from.

The Questions

My journey to this place began long before. As a child, I asked questions that most kids don't ask:

Why am I here? What's my purpose? Where do I belong?

Growing up, I often felt out of place. At times, I wondered if I even mattered. I didn't fit into the usual boxes and often felt like an outsider. These questions led me to search for answers in every way I could—through God, religion, personal development, teachers, and mentors. Over the past two decades, I found clarity in spiritual practices, breathwork, and most profoundly, clairvoyant meditation.

The Challenges

I've faced my share of pain and loss:

  • The passing of my father—How do I forgive?
  • The heartbreak of losing a partner I thought I'd build a family with—How do I move on?
  • Being taken to court by my own siblings—Do I fight, or do I let go?

Spiritual practices, breathwork, and clairvoyant meditations helped me find my answers.

The Purpose

That's why I created Pradisi: to share these tools and create a space where others can find their own answers. Here, in this magical forest, I invite you to pause, to breathe, to listen deeply, and to discover the answers within. You don't have to have everything figured out. You just have to be willing to show up and take the next step. I'm here to help you do that.

I am here to hold space for your healing, your questions, and your transformation—so you can find clarity, purpose, and belonging, just as I have.

Our Approach

At Pradisi, we honor the wisdom of ancient practices while embracing the needs of modern seekers. We believe that true transformation happens when we create the space to listen deeply to ourselves.

Our approach is rooted in these core principles:

  • Authenticity: We honor the lineage and integrity of the practices we share.

Welcome to Pradisi Retreat Center

Pradisi Retreat Center, is a retreat center nestled in the lush hills of Guatapé, near Medellin, Colombia.

The terrain is characterized by gentle slopes and pathways that wind through the landscape. You'll find charming uneven stone steps throughout the property, adding to its rustic charm.

At the heart of our retreat sits a peaceful meditation hall where guests can center themselves and meditate. A tranquil creek flows through the property, creating a soothing soundtrack to your stay. In the evenings, a mystical mist often settles over the grounds, creating a magical atmosphere.

We offer private accommodations for your comfort and privacy. Our retreat center can host intimate groups of up to 9 participants, and we're happy to run retreats even for a single guest.

Our two friendly golden retrievers, who serve as the property's loving guardians, may greet you during your stay - they are gentle companions who add to the welcoming feel of our retreat.

Please note that our retreat center is not suitable for guests with limited mobility or disabilities, as access requires walking up an uphill path. We appreciate your understanding and are happy to answer any questions regarding accessibility.
