Hi everyone! 🎉

The next C-Street Indie Market will be on Sunday, April 26 and we’re looking for musicians to showcase themselves 🎶🎤

If you’d like to play, please email cstreetindiemarket@gmail.com

This event will have more of a chilled vibe ✨

We, the organisers, don’t make any money from the market, anything we do make goes straight back into the next event 💛

At our last market, we were fortunate enough to receive council funding for entertainment, but unfortunately that isn’t the case this time.

So we’d love to invite volunteers to come and play 🙌 Whether you’d like to showcase your music or just perform for fun, we’d be thrilled to have you 🎸🎵

Let us know if you’re interested! 😊

What is CBD — and why do so many people use it? 🌿

CBD (short for cannabidiol) is a naturally occurring compound found in h**p. Unlike THC, it won’t get you high, but it does interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system; a system involved in balance, stress response, pain, sleep, and inflammation.

Because of this, many people turn to CBD as a daily wellness support.

Here are some of the most common reasons people use CBD, and why it may help 👇



😌 Stress & Anxiety

CBD is commonly used to support calm and relaxation.

It may help by:
Supporting the nervous system
Encouraging a more balanced stress response
Helping the body “downshift” without sedation

Many people describe feeling less on edge, but still clear-headed.



😴 Sleep Issues

CBD doesn’t act like a sleeping pill — instead, it may help address why sleep is off.

It’s often used to:
Calm a racing mind at night
Reduce tension that makes falling asleep hard
Support more restful, uninterrupted sleep

Some people find sleep improves simply because they feel more relaxed before bed.



🤕 Pain & Inflammation

CBD is widely used for everyday aches and stiffness.

It may help by:
Supporting the body’s natural inflammatory response
Interacting with pain-signaling pathways
Promoting recovery after physical strain

This is why it’s popular with people who have active jobs or sore joints.



🧠 Mood & Emotional Balance

CBD may help support emotional regulation by interacting with receptors linked to mood and serotonin.

People often use it to:
Feel more emotionally steady
Reduce irritability
Support overall mental wellbeing

It’s not about changing who you are — just helping things feel more manageable.



🦠 General Wellness Support

Some people use CBD simply to help the body stay in balance.

It’s often taken as:
A daily supplement
Part of a self-care routine
Support during stressful or physically demanding periods



Important to know:
CBD works differently for everyone. Quality, dosage, and consistency matter and it’s always best to start low and build slowly.

If you have questions about which CBD product might suit your needs, we’re always happy to help 🌱

Women are generally more sensitive to the consequences of sleep deprivation than men, with studies indicating they face higher risks of emotional distress, cognitive decline, and physical health issues when sleep-deprived. While some studies suggest men tolerate sleep loss better, research actually shows women need more sleep due to higher brain complexity, multitasking, and different biological rhythms.

🗂️Why Women Struggle More with Sleep Deprivation:

📑Higher Brain Activity: Women’s brains are often more active and complex due to multitasking, requiring more recovery time.

📑Hormonal Changes: Menstrual cycles, pregnancy, and menopause significantly disrupt sleep, increasing the need for quality rest.

📑Physical/Emotional Impact: Women experience higher levels of depression, anxiety, anger, and reduced cognitive function, including memory issues, when sleep-deprived.

📑Health Vulnerabilities: Chronic lack of sleep in women is more strongly linked to heart disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure.

🗂️Why Men Often Seem to Tolerate it Better:

📑Less Physiological Stress: Men tend to experience fewer immediate emotional and mental health consequences compared to women.

📑Sleep Patterns: While men often have lower quality sleep (less deep sleep), they may not experience the same intense health repercussions from chronic lack of sleep.

🚨 Let’s talk about fake e-liquids — and why “too cheap” should worry you 🚨

Not all e-liquids are created equal. A growing number of counterfeit or unregulated v**es are hitting the market, and many of them contain chemicals that were never meant to be inhaled.

Some of the substances found in fake or illegally imported e-liquids include:
• Industrial-grade ni****ne (not pharmaceutical grade)
• Contaminants like heavy metals
• Unsafe solvents and cutting agents
• Synthetic flavour chemicals not approved for inhalation
• Unknown additives used to bulk out product cheaply

These liquids are often produced outside of regulatory systems, with no batch testing, no ingredient transparency, and no accountability if something goes wrong.

🚩 Big red flag: when e-liquids are being sold at wholesale or cost price to the public.

Legitimate businesses cannot sustainably sell regulated products at those prices. When you see it happening, it usually means:
• The product wasn’t sourced legally
• Taxes and duties weren’t paid
• Quality control was skipped entirely

In some cases, authorities have linked this kind of pricing behaviour to illicit financial activity, where products are used simply to move money rather than protect customers.

💡 Cheap v**es aren’t a bargain — they’re a risk.
Your lungs don’t get a refund.

If you v**e, buy from shops that:
✔ Can tell you where their products come from
✔ Sell compliant, traceable brands
✔ Don’t race to the bottom on price
✔ Actually care if customers come back healthy

Saving a few quid isn’t worth inhaling mystery chemicals.

Support legitimate retailers. Protect your health. Ask questions.

N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compound that helps the body reduce oxidative stress by boosting levels of glutathione, one of the body’s main natural defenses against inflammation. In a study published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, researchers evaluated NAC in women with ovarian endometriosis.

The study followed 120 women who took NAC 600 mg three times daily for 3 consecutive days each week over a 3-month period. Results showed significant reductions in endometriosis-related pain, ovarian endometrioma (cyst) size, and CA-125 inflammation levels, along with reduced use of pain medications. Among women attempting pregnancy, 75% conceived naturally within 6 months. The treatment was well tolerated, with no reported side effects.

🌿 What Is It Wednesday

L-Theanine: calm focus, anxiety & sleep support
L-Theanine is a naturally occurring amino acid, most famously found in green tea 🍃
Unlike amino acids that build muscle, L-theanine works mainly in the brain.

🧠 Here’s the science (made simple):

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, but some—like L-theanine—also act as neuroactive compounds.

L-theanine crosses the blood–brain barrier and helps increase alpha brain waves, which are linked to calm, focused alertness.

It supports neurotransmitters like GABA, serotonin, and dopamine, helping reduce anxiety without causing drowsiness.

Unlike sedatives, it doesn’t “switch the brain off” — it helps the brain relax while staying clear.

✨ Why people love it:
✔ Calm focus (great for stress or ADHD overwhelm)
✔ Anxiety support without sedation
✔ Better sleep quality, especially for busy minds

Calm, but not sleepy. Focused, but not wired.
That’s the magic of this amino acid 💚

🌿 Menopause Monday 🌿
Let’s talk about clary sage – a favourite herb during perimenopause and menopause.

Clary sage is best known for its hormone-balancing reputation. It’s traditionally used to support fluctuating oestrogen levels, which can help ease some of the most common menopause symptoms, including:

✨ Hot flushes & night sweats – may help calm the body’s stress response
✨ Low mood & anxiety – often described as grounding and gently uplifting
✨ Sleep issues – can help the nervous system switch into rest mode
✨ Menstrual-type cramps – useful for those still in peri-menopause

Many women love clary sage as an essential oil (diffused, inhaled, or diluted in a carrier oil for massage over the abdomen or lower back). A little goes a long way.

⚠️ Always dilute essential oils and avoid during pregnancy. If you’re on medication or have hormone-sensitive conditions, it’s best to check first.

Have you tried clary sage before – or is it on your menopause toolkit wishlist? 💬

✨📣If menopause has changed your energy, your tolerance, or your ability to keep saying yes — this month inside Her Second Act is for you. We’re exploring the sacred no, nervous system safety, and self-authority. Join us if you feel the pull. Link in bio!
