Modern society teaches us to become somebody.

This book asks what happens when we stop trying.

Seeking refuge among the redwoods beyond Sherwood Road, Gnostic Nick turns away from the noise of contemporary life and towards the silent source from which all life springs.

Through reflections on nature, spirituality, love, philosophy, mental health, creativity, suffering, and the search for truth, he explores a question older than civilization itself:

What are we beneath the identities we've been taught to wear?

Inspired by the spirit of Thoreau's Walden, the wisdom of Siddhartha, the wonder of Alice in Wonderland, and the inward journey of Letters to a Young Poet, Becoming Oneself is a meditation on the recovery of the authentic self through solitude, contemplation, and communion with the living world.

Part memoir, part philosophical journal, and part spiritual manifesto, this is an invitation to step beyond the pale of convention and rediscover the wild, undefinable truth of what you are.
