I Died Today: How Surrender Became My Awakening

A raw and unflinching memoir of collapse, surrender, and unexpected rebirth, I Died Today: How Surrender Became My Awakening chronicles the moment when everything fell away-and what emerged in the void.On a day that began like any other, Oren K. Wilder found his chest tightening until breath became optional. The relentless push of ambition, the mounting shame, and the ceaseless mental loops all culminated in a single, transformative surrender: "I cannot do this anymore." What followed was neither tragedy nor defeat but a radical opening-an embodied inquiry into what it means to surrender body, mind, and soul.Through eleven meticulously guided chapters-from "Ashes of Exhaustion" and "Conversations with Nothing" to "The Gift of Unknowing" and "Purpose as Emergence"-Wilder offers concrete, somatic practices that ground you in the here and now. Each page invites simple yet profound rituals: tracing the grain of a worn desk, syncing breath to a bird's song, feeling the pulse beneath your fingertips. No platitudes, no forced optimism-only honest presence and the fertile space where new purpose can arise.Whether you're weary of pushing harder, stuck in loops of self-judgment, or simply longing for a deeper sense of aliveness, I Died Today shows how true awakening often begins at the end of everything you thought you were. Embrace the power of embodied surrender-and discover the life waiting on the other side of "death."
