Welcome

An intro to Beloved & Becoming

Beloved & Becoming is a space to remember who you truly are: deeply loved, radically free, and always unfolding.

I’m Tyler Hill: a Benedictine oblate of Benet Hill Monastery, writer, speaker, and spiritual guide drawn to the edges where mysticism meets real life. Shaped by ancient wisdom, punk ethos, contemplative silence, and cultural noise, I believe everything—yes, everything—is drenched in the sacred.

Through breathwork, spiritual direction, and transformative retreats, I help others return to their beloved self guiding them into embodied healing, divine connection, and the sacred path of becoming.

I find God in the Rule of St. Benedict and in A24 films, in poetry and podcasts, in the forest and in the feedback loop of the internet. I’m in love with beauty, honest expression, and the lifelong journey of becoming fully and freely ourselves.

At the center of it all is belovedness. Not as an abstract idea, but as the deepest truth of who we are. My writing and work are rooted in this knowing: that before we strive, improve, perform, or become...we are already fully known, fully loved, and can live from that place.

This Substack is a reflection of that journey.

Here you’ll find:

🔥 Essays — Explorations of the sacred hidden in pop culture, daily life, and the unlikely places Divinity likes to show up. Plus, personal essays on healing, creativity, mysticism, breathwork, and the sacred path of becoming.

🕯️ The Rule — Essays unlocking St. Benedict’s ancient wisdom for modern contemplatives, guiding us into rhythm, presence, and the holy hidden in everyday life.

📡Transmissions — A monthly drop of what’s moving me: music, books, films, beauty, and little altars of The Divine in unexpected places.

Beloved & Becoming is where:

Mystic meets modern. Punk meets prayer.
This is where the ordinary catches fire with the divine.
And where you're invited, just as you are, to belong, become, and burn a little brighter.

I’m so glad you are here.
