my fortnightly newsletter, speed of trust, is a space for coming together in the messiness of existing as the fullest version of the self, where raw expression, cringe, nuance and pleasure, are uplifted as spells for living in a state of expansion.
here, I share personal essays, poetry, somatic and pleasure-based practices, and my upcoming offerings/events
My Body Is An Orchard
by Taylor Neal, edited by Em Keeler
My Body Is An Orchard takes the form of a collection of original poetry written during my time as a steward of the land in northern California during the summer of 2022, in reflection of the ways my body gives and receives, serves and is served, heals and is healed, by the land, by love, by violence, and by the souls with whom I move through contact.

I have always had a wild passion for writing, and one of my favourite practices is supporting others in bringing their ideas out of their minds and into words to share and spread.
