Passadhi: More Than A Wellness Center

Edmundo Moure, co-founder and husband of Gisèle Dupuis, played an essential role in bringing the vision of Passadhi to life. He contributed to the center’s unique architectural design, seamlessly blending traditional elements with modern design. Nestled in the beautiful countryside, Passadhi’s thoughtfully designed spaces create an inviting atmosphere where guests can fully immerse themselves in their healing journey.

Passadhi is truly a path to Nirvana. Thanks a million for the pleasure you have given us. We were able to enjoy every moment, every enriching conversation, every smile, the peace, the harmony, the vibration, the aroma of the natural, the excellent food and of course, Gisèle's mastery of Ayurveda. Carpe Diem.
