The first title of the series, Awake, Arise! or be forever fallen, is now available on Kobo and Amazon

With this book, the author seeks to inspire readers to be themselves, take control of their lives, and live a purposeful existence, instead of living at the mercy of other people’s wishes. However, none of that can ever be achieved until we learn to see our real self, and ultimately accept ourselves as we really are, and not as others expect us to be. Page after page, readers will witness the fall, the awakening, and the rise of the author, and join him in his inspiring journey from self-destruction to self-actualization.

This book carries a message of hope for all: that a better life is possible, regardless of your situation, and that you already have everything you need to live it. It’s all there in your mind.

Spanish artist and designer Alicia Varela has designed the cover and beautifully illustrated this book. Her artwork – soft and nuanced, but compelling – conveys perfectly the deep meaning of the book.

Awake, Arise, or Be Forever Fallen! – book cover

“After twenty long years of keeping it a secret, I decided to share my personal experience as a young anorexic male in the hope that this will help readers avoid falling into a trap created by their own mind, and find their inner light without having to endure a long and painful rite of passage like the one I went through.”

That light within is called life, and it’s the only light that can guide you to happiness. But it’s a light that can only shine in the present. Have no regrets about the past, and don’t get lost in the maze of your fears and doubts about the future. There’s no better time than now to break the spell that binds us to a life of zombie-like aimless roaming and start living fully every single moment of your life.

The decision is in your hands. Follow the illuminated path laid out in this book, and start living the life you desire and deserve.

The magic is in you: just open your heart and you’ll see it.
