We feel very lucky to have some of these beautiful, newly-launched, resting mats to see and buy here at Black Barn - the brainchild of Sheena Skinner. ⁠
⁠
Sheena noticed that, for sessions of deep rest such as soundbaths, breathwork, and meditation, participants were still trying to get comfortable on thin yoga mats with blankets. A ‘norrag’ is an afternoon rest in the Gaelic tradition, and so the Norrag was born! ⁠
⁠
The Norrag rest mat blends scottish soul with Indian craftsmanship; slow made and sustainable, each mat is filled with natural kapok, which is a breathable, hypoallergenic fibre that offers gentle support while grounding the body. The handwoven cotton outer is soft, tactile and designed for longevity.⁠
⁠
We are lucky to have a special discount for Clinic51 patients & visitors, so why not pop in and have a squeeze? A lovely Christmas gift for someone who loves their rest (who doesn’t?!)....

After a many years with no innovation in HRT, we are finally seeing some new options available to women. ⁠
⁠
Pharmaceutical companies are finally investing in developing newer HRT medications, specifically progesterones. ⁠
⁠
Nalvee is brand new in the UK and licensed specifically for HRT.⁠
⁠
It is very similar to micronised progesterone, which makes it one of the most “body-friendly” progestogens. It has already been used widely in combination HRT tablets like Femoston, so it isn’t an unknown drug—it’s just now available on its own.⁠
⁠
Some benefits:⁠
o Low breast cancer risk, similar to micronised progesterone⁠
o Gentle on mood⁠
o Neutral for libido and skin (neither strongly anti-androgenic nor androgenic)⁠
⁠
Some things to consider:⁠
o Only comes in one fixed dose (so less flexibility)⁠
o Licensed for cyclical use, but in practice, can also be used continuously (off-license)⁠
⁠
What’s most important is that women have the medication that best suits their bodies, their symptoms, and their lifestyles - and that we are able to take the time to find the best combination for them. ⁠

Slynd is one of the newer options available for managing menopause symptoms. ⁠
⁠
Originally developed as a contraceptive pill, Slynd is now being used off-license in HRT. ⁠
⁠
It contains the same progestogen found in the contraceptive pill Yasmin, which many women like for its positive effects on skin and mood. ⁠
⁠
The benefits:⁠
- Good bleeding control⁠
- May be better tolerated by women sensitive to progesterone⁠
- Can help with hormonal acne⁠
- Has a slightly diuretic effect (useful if you suffer from fluid retention)⁠
⁠
Things to consider:⁠
- It has an ‘anti-androgenic’ effect - which is great for skin, but may reduce libido in some women. (If that’s a concern, testosterone can be added)⁠
- It needs to be taken continually, so ignore the placebo pills if being used as part of HRT. ⁠
⁠
Every woman’s HRT should be as unique as she is....⁠

Let’s start with the basics....⁠
⁠
The oestrogen in HRT is what improves symptoms like hot flushes, brain fog, and sleep disturbances. It also supports long-term health—protecting bones and the heart.⁠
⁠
But if you still have a womb, oestrogen alone isn’t enough. Think of oestrogen as fertiliser on a lawn—it thickens and grows the womb lining, and if left unchecked, this increases the risk of womb cancer. ⁠
⁠
Progesterone is like the lawnmower! It protects the lining of the womb by stopping it from getting too thick. ⁠
⁠
If you don’t have a womb (or endometriosis), you don’t need progesterone at all. For women with a womb, progesterone protects the womb lining and keeps things balanced. ⁠
⁠
If you’re on HRT, both hormones play a vital role in symptom relief and long-term health.⁠
