A sanctuary for hypermobility deep healing, ritual & reconnection
Join The Connective Coven
You're Not Broken. You're Becoming.
You've spent years navigating chronic illness, misdiagnosis, grief, trauma, and systems that dismissed you. Your body was never built for the "normal" path.
But deep down, you know—you've always known—there's a rhythm in you that medicine can't measure. A truth your body remembers, even if your mind forgets.
An ancient thread is waiting to be pulled back through your hands. Welcome home.
What The Connective Coven Is
Seasonal Ritual Space
We gather 8 times a year, aligned with the Wheel of the Year, to practice somatic rituals that strengthen your nervous system without pushing or forcing.
Plant Medicine Integration
Explore plant and flower medicine for spiritual and physical integration, drawing on nature's wisdom to support your healing journey.
Gentle Movement Practice
Experience compression work, grounding breath, and seasonal pacing designed specifically for hypermobile bodies and complex conditions.
Intuitive Exploration
Engage with tarot, journaling, dreamwork, and ancestral remembrance to reclaim your inner knowing and body-based wisdom.
This Sacred Space Is For You If...
Your Body Is Speaking
You feel like your body is trying to tell you something—and you're finally ready to listen to its whispers, sensations, and deep knowing.
You Crave Both Science and Spirit
You want community that blends trauma-awareness and magic, nervous system education and ritual, grounding and mysticism.
You're Ready for Real Strength
You want to build strength—actual, sustainable strength—from the inside out, honoring your body's unique needs and rhythm.
Healing Shouldn't Feel Like Punishment
You're tired of approaches that push, force, or shame. You're ready for healing that feels nourishing, gentle, and deeply affirming.
Intuition Is Power
You're ready to trust your intuition as a form of wisdom and power, not something to be questioned or dismissed by others.
The Earth Is Alive
You believe the Earth is alive, your body is sacred, and the spiral is not a setback—it's a signal pointing you toward truth.

The Threshold Invitation
Samhain marks the end of harvest and the beginning of winter. It's a time to honor ancestors, buried wisdom, and the unseen. This ritual invites you inward—to pause, reflect, and remember who you are beneath the surface.

Sacred Timing: This gathering lands right at the energetic threshold of Samhain—the thinning of the veil between worlds. Sunset in Burlington, VT is 4:40pm.
We'll tend the shadows, trust your body's knowing, and call home parts of yourself that were exiled, silenced, or forgotten. The spiral is opening. Your body already knows the way home.

The Medicine That Found Me
Finding the Hooded Lady's Tresses
I didn't set out to find healing that day. I was walking my dog, furious about a car, stuck in someone else's story. My nervous system was buzzing. I wasn't sleeping. I was spiraling.
And then—I saw them. Two tiny white spires rising from a field I'd walked through a hundred times. They stopped me in my tracks. Something in me whispered: "Pay attention. This is for you."
Spiranthes romanzoffiana—Hooded Lady's Tresses Orchid. A rare, wild orchid that spirals as it grows. Resilient, camouflaged, subtle… and incredibly strong.
It happened the day of the Corn Moon eclipse in Pisces—a potent portal of emotional release, endings, intuition, and water-born wisdom. I gathered the blossoms with intention, made flower essence under moonlight, and felt something shift. Like my body exhaled.
What the Lady's Tresses Taught Me
Not Everything Needs Saving
These orchids had survived dozens of mowings before me—and they'll keep surviving after. They didn't need me to rescue them. They needed me to trust them. Just like I'm learning to trust me.
You Can Be Both Soft and Strong
You can grow in the margins and still be magnificent. You can leave a lasting impression on someone's soul—even if you're only here for a short time.
You Can Know Without Explaining
Intuition is strength, not softness. Spirals are sacred. Healing doesn't always look like action—it often looks like trusting the pause.
That field. That walk. That full moon. That quiet moment of recognition planted something in me. A phrase came through clear and electric: The Connective Coven. That orchid wasn't just a flower—it was a mirror, a messenger, a beginning.
Community Voices & Sacred Support
Trauma-Aware Container
Every gathering honors your autonomic needs, offers choices for participation, and recognizes that safety looks different for each nervous system. No pressure. No fixing. Just presence.
Neurodivergent-Affirming
Sensory considerations, flexible formats, written resources, replay access, and respect for different processing styles are woven into every ritual.
Body-First Wisdom
We center somatic intelligence, recognizing that bodies with hypermobility, chronic illness, and complex conditions carry profound wisdom medicine can't measure.
"This space helped me trust my body again after years of medical trauma and dismissal. The blend of science and ritual gave me permission to honor both what I know intellectually and what I feel intuitively."
— Founding Coven Member
"I've never experienced healing work that understood my hypermobile body AND my need for spiritual connection. The Connective Coven holds both with such care and wisdom."
— Seasonal Circle Participant
Let This Be Your Season of Remembering
The veil is thin. The spiral is opening.
If you've ever felt like you needed permission to trust yourself again—this space is for you.
Join us for the first Connective Coven gathering on November 1st, 2025 for Samhain: Intuition + Integration. We'll gather to honor the spiral, listen to the whispers, and remember what our bodies already know.
You don't have to hold it all to be whole. You don't have to chase healing. The medicine you need is already whispering. It's time to listen.
