Hi, I’m GG. For years, I’ve had the privilege of guiding incredible people toward a deeper understanding of their energy, creativity, and potential.

There’s so much more to the story, but to keep it short:

My journey as an entrepreneur and trainer started at the Institute of Mindfulness. I was initially brought on as a business developer and program coordinator, but it wasn’t long before I was trained to lead mindfulness and compassion trainings myself.
Later, in 2015, I founded A Lotus Seed, where I worked with over 5,500 people facilitating journeys into the human psyche, emotions, and the subconscious mechanisms that shape it all.
With a background in economics and innovation, I’ve also supported entrepreneurs, blending creativity and brainstorming with strategy to unlock new ideas and possibilities.

As I observed transformation—my own included—I noticed that something was holding people back from creating what they truly wanted:

We’re never taught to truly transform and navigate change. Let alone shape it from a place that’s genuine and real.

The New Reality School emerged as a response to the patterns I’ve observed in my own transformation and in the journeys of those I’ve worked with. It’s a structured approach to the skills, insights and tools needed to navigate change and create lives and businesses that truly align with who we are.

Testimonials new reality processes

I’ve done so many courses over the years, but Geraldine’s stands out remarkably. I faced stuff I’ve been carrying for years, things I didn’t even realize were holding me back, and somehow, I let them go. It’s like I found a whole new space inside myself I didn’t know was there. The exercises totally changed how I am going through my days. Honestly, if you’re ready to figure out your next step, I’d tell you to just do it. This was life-changing for me.

Disclaimer: Geraldine is my life partner so you might think I'm a bit biased when I say that I never met a woman more passionate about living her truth and seeing possibilities where you least expect it :). But our relationship holds the proof of what is possible when we each on our own commit to being truthful to ourselves and the other. Also, in just a few months we created O Ninho - The Sea Nest - in Portugal together. To me this is the perfect example of how easy it is to imagine and create new chapters in life if you stay true to who you are.

I was test driving the experiments as a dedicated client of Geraldine. It has been truly a magnificent journey. I got chrystal-clear clarity on who I am, how I function and how I can live and create from that place of authenticity. I am embracing a new all around vision for my life instead of chasing temporary goals that don't suit me. I’m moving forward every single day, and I know exactly where I’m going. And I’m having so fun building this new life.

What's exciting about this program is that you learn to understand how transformation works. In just a few weeks, I have already noticed a remarkable difference in the consistency of my new habits, energy, and attention. The system Geraldine provides isn’t just about inner growth; it gives you all the tools and support you need to build the next phase of your life. It dives into things like focus, creation, creativity, flow, and even planning. I feel like I’m finally on track, and I’m so excited for what’s next. Thank you!

I sensed something was holding me back, but didn't quite see how I was unintentionally creating my own obstacles. I just tried moving forward and started the business I was dreaming of. Eventually pushing myself too much and burning out. What was really special is that I've learned to transform old energy into new energies and combine it with a certain practicality. Combining motherhood with my business now feels more easy going. There is a sense of relief and deep trust in the future and the present moment. Bonus is that I have more energy and clients almost doubled since starting the journey... Highly recommended.

The past few months I have been coached by GG. This has been one of the most powerful experiences of my life. I learn to connect with a part of me that is no longer wanting to please or impress others. I am now making a huge u-turn, transitioning to a new phase in life while starting another business that is better fitting with who I am. It feels like a weight lifted off me. I'm excited to continue this process.

The beauty of the exercises and process (that is still unfolding for us) lies in its ability to inspire us to think differently, to challenge our assumptions, to be more honest and to push the boundaries of what is possible. We are taking bold decisions now, we have also reconnected with ourselves and each other on a whole new level. This has been one of the most precious gifts for our family and we are beyond grateful for the experience.

Geraldine's coaching has been instrumental in both the expansion of my business and the development of my personal creativity. Her method resonates with me as it's tailored for those who are forward-thinking and value emotional intelligence and independent thought. Her approach goes beyond surface-level techniques. It delves into a deeper authenticity that unlocks a powerful energy. I think she is on to something very powerful 🙂

I wake up every day excited to keep building my dreams, and for the first time, it doesn’t feel overwhelming. It’s like everything has finally clicked into place. The systems provided have made it so much clearer—I can see exactly what I need to do and how to do it. And the guidance keeps bringing me back to what really matters, to the essence of it all. It’s such a game-changer.

Some beautiful words from previous clients of A Lotus Seed.

Testimonials retreats & trainings

"The retreat was a truly profound, beautiful and powerful experience. I have been meditating and attending retreats for many years but found this one particularly helpful. What did I love? Staying in a quiet, wild, peaceful haven of nature; eating the most delicious and healthy food prepared with love; doing daily yoga with wonderful teacher Anna; being with like minded souls. But above all, the teachings and meditations with Geraldine who has such wisdom beyond her years, so much insight, clarity, groundedness and humanity. After following the path and meditating for many years, something finally truly clicked about how we create own suffering and can free ourselves. I can’t thank Geraldine enough."

As Pema Chadron says: "Nothing ever leaves you untill it teaches you what you need to know". This week with you and the group have helped me immensely to tune my "bodies" and my heart, and to open up to learning more. You contributed a great deal to my path towards liberation and breaking chains. Thank you Geraldine"

"I was curious and a bit resistant in the beginning as being a down-to-earth engineer. In a day or two I began opening up and as days went by the retreat center became my home. After a while I understood why people come back to this retreat. That atmosphere is so magical I feel the urge to recreate it around me - I never ever in my life felt so safe and beautiful and openhearted as there, surrounded by the wonderful souls of the group. The place itself is an ancient paradise with so pure energy! The food was amazing. I have kept continuing yoga and meditation practice ever since I came home. I am very grateful! Namaste"

"More than expecting.... I was not expecting the deep insights and transformations which came as a result of this Open Mind Retreat. A balance of deep meditations, yoga, and inspirational open heart mindfulness teachings made the opportunity for personal growth and life enrichment. Fabulous guidance and support from Geraldine, the course provider. It is a truly experiential process. I’m over 60. The group was all ages, all of us on a similar path. This particular course focused on open heart open mindfulness. Quite frankly, the best retreat ever, and all taking place in a glorious setting of Portugal. Can’t praise the course highly enough."

"I learned that these processes are not dreamy, but hands-on, intense and impactful. I learned to embrace both my focus and my distractions, to accept what the moment brings without judgment. I found new directions in life but more importantly I rediscovered myself in so many ways. I see myself with much more focus now than I have ever done before. That is the biggest gift I received”

During the Open heart retreat I really experienced the sense of freedom and joy that arises from being unafraid of being truly me. The space that Geraldine creates is a safe space free of judgement and immensely welcoming. During the retreat I have the time and space and depth to explore deeper in all the places where I get stuck. And I was incredibly blessed to have intuitions during the retreat on how to get a bit more “unstuck”. I have only words of awe and gratitude and after 10 days I am still on a high ☺️

"I have just returned home after a beautiful week in Alentejo Portugal. I could not have drawn a better picture or written a more perfect story of how that week could have been. The content was so clear and delivered by Geraldine in such a deep compassionate way that my heart grew softer and bigger with each new day. I discovered so much about myself and learnt to open my heart and share. I would like to truly and sincerely encourage anyone searching or needing self love, alone time for inner self, nourishing of the mind, body and spirit, to offer this wonderful gift to yourself. I am so grateful that I did.

This experience left a deep impression on me. By taking time to become truly present with myself, I was able to touch layers within myself that I did not know before. Streams of inspiration and perspectives came that changed my view of the world and myself forever. Not only did I meet wonderful people, but I met myself again. I even wrote part of my book there that I will be releasing soon :). If you are hesitating, it's a good sign. Because your life won't be the same afterwards.

The retreat was excellent in every way from beginning till end. I came with the idea to take a week off for some relaxation, slowing down and disconnecting from my daily life, including the Internet. I returned more connected to myself and with the realization that I can create my own “safe haven”. I had hoped to find answers to questions I never really dared to ask and left with insights about myself that go beyond these questions.

"Geraldine has the gift of teaching which feels very authentic. I feel she is expressing a lifestyle not just teaching from a text book. I feel blessed to have had this amazing experience. I highly recommend her retreats!
