A person�s emotional state determines their wellbeing and all their actions. Wouldn't it be great if we had an effective tool on hand to overcome painful emotions such as worries, loneliness, and anger? With his inventive, simple model of the Ego House and its 10 rooms, mindfulness teacher Georg Lolos offers exactly this. Each room represents a difficult emotional state, such as the Room of Inferiority or the Room of Denial. Depending on which room we enter, we inhale the atmosphere of this dreadful space and are bombarded by its negative emotions. It's high time to exit our inner prison. Georg Lolos guides us through this house of pain and helps us with mindfulness exercises that are easy to implement so that we can leave the Ego House for good.

Georg Lolos is a meditation teacher of Greek origin. Before he came to mindfulness he was employed as a political TV journalist for WDR/ARD - the German equivalent of the BBC. In his early 30s, Georg began suffering from severe depression and burnout. Eventually he felt that he needed to make a significant change and moved to the Buddhist monastery Plum Village in the south of France. Since his return, he has taught mindfulness and meditation to thousands of students in courses and workshops. He lives in Koeln, Germany.
