How many of us can really say, we have lived life to its fullest? We often reduce life to bullet points neatly placed on our list of "things to do." But where does it go? Somehow as the years pass, and technology creeps in from every angle, we slip easily into automaton mode. And in this way--the change happens so gradual--that we don't even notice. Until one day, we look back and wonder; What ever happened to my bullet point? To my goals? To my will? To my REAL needs? The answer to this question, is often sought after "outside" of ourselves, somewhere divine, unreachable--far, far away. Religion, ethnicity, ancient customs, or traditional beliefs, have nothing to do with this. That is what makes this message so different from any other. This book is about the Inner Journey that one must take in order to re-discover that perception within: that once allowed us to live free and experience things to their maximum potential. We seek this knowledge as if we know we "lost" it, and therefore we constantly search for it. Within ourselves we hold the key to passage into the bliss we have sought all our lives. Therein lay the answers to the "Perception" we have of life. We have the power to co-create our environment by adjusting our subtle reality, via our perception, and to view life in a whole new way, and discover that although lost... it is now time to Return to Life Return to Life Takes the reader on a journey in search for this inner truth, to find and remember who we are, and who we are meant to be. Feel inspired by the beautiful Full Color Illustrations included as each chapter cover, by world renowned artist Jonathon Earl Bowser.

As you read each chapter, you will begin to "see" the difference in your life.

ABOUT THE ART IN THIS BOOK Jonathon Earl Bowser, a Canadian artist of English, French, Scottish, and Chippewa descent describes his unique figurative-landscape paintings as "Mythic Naturalism": an exploration of the Divinity of Beauty, and the Archetypes' of Mythology. His work is a quest for the ancient, unchanging, and eternal knowledge found in the poetic revelation of the sacred and sublime. He believes that Mythology (both spiritual belief, and psychological preparation for life) must be recognized as the essential, timelessly enduring soul of our modern, hyper-dynamic, technology-driven world.
