Honestly, the days of telling people with hEDS or HSD to just ‘push through’ or ‘try harder’ have got to stop. Newsflash - that doesn’t work!

We take a very different stance on our evidence-based platform. “Do what you feel, do what you can.” That’s the vibe at The Zebra Club, and our members feel the difference to those outdated, harmful narratives.

For people with hypermobility and EDS, movement often comes loaded with guilt, fear of flares, and pressure to keep up. The Zebra Club platform is built differently.
Guided. Gentle. At your pace. Always.

And this can be achieved in just five minutes. Whether you do five minutes or fifty, you’re doing it right. We’re all about meeting you where you are.

If everything you try makes you worse, you might have a sensitized nervous system, and that changes everything about how to approach movement and pain.

With symptomatic hypermobility and Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS), the nervous system can become sensitized, meaning the nerves have changed to become more responsive to pain signals.
This is not “all in your head”, the pain is real. But before you try to strengthen or stabilize, you may need to calm the system down first.

Swipe for five things that can help, with guidance from our Scientific Advisor Dr. Leslie Russek.

Try all of these inside The Zebra Club. Link in bio. And tell us: what helps you most when your nervous system needs calming? 👇

People with hEDS and HSD may be twice as likely to develop long COVID as the general population.

Dr. Alan Hakim joined us at our members meet up to share new research on the link between hypermobility, inflammation, and COVID-19, and what it means for how we understand these conditions.

Dr. Jessica Eccles, Clinical Senior Lecturer in Neuroscience at Brighton and Sussex Medical School, has spent years researching the connection between neurodivergence and hypermobility. In our 2023 Zebra Club meetup, she addressed six common myths about neurodivergence head on.

If you live with hEDS, hypermobility spectrum disorder, autism, or ADHD, these myths may have affected the care you received or the way you understand yourself.

Which of these have you heard or been told yourself? Share in the comments.

Zebra Club members can watch the full meetup in the Expert Insights section of the platform. Sharing this for Neurodiversity Celebration Week with love for our neurodiverse Zebra community.

Neurodivergence isn’t just something to overcome.
It’s part of how someone experiences, processes, and moves through the world.

Yes, that can come with real challenges. But it can also bring strengths that deserve to be recognized, not erased.

Different ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving are part of human diversity and shape creativity, problem-solving, empathy, and innovation in ways we often overlook.

If you’re neurodivergent, your experience is valid in all of its complexity, not just the parts that look like strengths.

51% of neurodivergent people have hypermobility.

Research into the connection between hEDS, HSD, autism, and ADHD is growing and it’s changing how we understand both conditions.

If you live with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome or hypermobility spectrum disorder, there’s a good chance your nervous system, brain, and body are more connected than you’ve been told.

How long did it take you to connect the dots between your hypermobility and neurodivergence? Let’s share in the comments & raise awareness about these journeys.

Swipe through for the research & send this to someone who needs to see it.

Sleep doesn’t always come easy when you’re hypermobile. But we’ve found our ways. 🦓

It’s World Sleep Day and we’re celebrating the very specific, very valid, very us bedtime routines that help zebras actually rest. Because for us, a good night’s sleep doesn’t just happen. It takes preparation, the right tools, and a whole lot of figuring out what works for your body.

Pregnancy pillow? Compression gloves AND an eye mask? A Squishmallow for joint support? Honestly, we love to see it.

Progress not perfection. 🌿

In a world that glorifies pushing harder and bouncing back faster, we do things differently here.

Progress at The Zebra Club looks like honouring a rest day. Noticing a little more ease in your body. Choosing the modification without guilt.

Small, consistent, compassionate movement is how we build strength that lasts. That’s the Integral Movement Method. That’s what we’re here for. 💚

What does progress look like for you this week? Share below.

Women with EDS and hypermobility are diagnosed at nearly 2.5x the rate of men. And so many more go unrecognised for years.

This International Women’s Day, we want to celebrate every woman in this community. Whether you have a diagnosis, are still searching for one, or are somewhere in between, your experience is valid. You belong here.
We see you. And you are not alone.

Drop a comment below so we can celebrate you today.

If you have EDS or hypermobility, you may notice your calf muscles carry a lot of tension. A hypermobile body learns to grip, and it is not always easy to let go. Poor gait patterns, ankle instability, POTS and many other aspects of life with hypermobility can contribute to this.

We’ve added a brand new guided meditation to the Targeted Release collection inside Calm Your
Mind, our dedicated audio meditation section in the app.
It takes you through a gentle release of the lower legs and calves, and explores the role of the feet in letting that tension go.

Find it in your audio meditations inside The Zebra Club app. Our audio meditations are quite unique as they are designed for the Hypermobile body.

A simple nervous system regulation tip that takes seconds to practice!

If you live with hypermobility, EDS, or a chronic condition, your nervous system is often working overtime.

Glimmers are micro-moments of regulation that can help bring it back to calm, and you can train yourself to notice them.

Polyvagal Theory clinician Deb Dana, LCSW describes them as small moments of safety and wellbeing that appear in everyday life. The more you practise noticing them, the more you find.

Swipe through for the full glimmer practice and save this post for when you need it 😌.

Tell us one glimmer from this week in the comments 👇
Nervous system regulation is at the heart of everything we do at The Zebra Club 🦓. Our founder always says if your nervous system isn’t on board, it’s going to be very difficult to make a lasting change.
