Blue light. How does it effect you? One week off I notice the difference, less stressed, less eye strain, less head and neck pain plus I am using the Carnosine Peptide gel which is making a huge improvement to aches and pains. Want to know more? DM and I will send links to check out this exciting new way to bring back energy.

❤️A little share…about something I have recently been very impressed about to say the least. 🤩
I damaged my left knee over a year ago and have had to deal with quite a bit of pain and finding it difficult to keep sharing my mantra ‘Movement is Medicine’ with the usual passion I have had for teaching for over 40 years.
So I have been dealing with it by adjusting my classes ( still passionate) and having physiotherapy and acupuncture with a little success.
I adore doing my daily routine of earthing the body, moving the Chi by tapping, swinging, jumps, squats etc but have modified until 2 weeks ago someone introduced me to a gel with a peptide we naturally have but lose as we age

At first, I was curious but cautious. I’ve seen plenty of things before, so for me it had to be about what I could genuinely feel and experience for myself. But the more I looked into it, the more I realised this had the potential to support the body in a very different way.

I’ve only just started twice a day morning and night but already I’m noticing more ease and more support in my movement. What really stands out today is I used it when I had muscle cramps on my left leg and around my knee during the night last night and got up and massaged a bit more into my leg and my knee and did both legs.
This morning I was able to move with a freedom I haven’t felt for over a year.
What really excites me is the potential of this, especially when it comes to recovery, mobility, and having more freedom in everyday life.

I’ll keep sharing my journey, but if you’ve been feeling like your body needs more support, more ease, or more recovery too, it might be something worth looking into

✨For over 40 years, I’ve been at the forefront of fitness and wellness—continually evolving, innovating, and leading change.
✨From opening one of the first activewear stores in the early 1980s, to pioneering Mums & Bubs fitness in the 1990s, my work has always been about one thing: helping people live stronger, healthier, more balanced lives.
✨I’ve developed signature fusion programs grounded in what I call Movement as Medicine—supporting Mind, Body, Heart, and Spirit across every stage of life. From children to older adults, including those with disabilities, my programs are inclusive, transformative, and deeply impactful.
✨A cornerstone of my work is my unique 10-minute Yoga Nidra practice—“the waking sleep”—which I integrate into every session. This powerful tool has helped thousands of people experience profound calm, clarity, and renewal.
✨I am also the author of two published books on wellbeing, exploring everything from postnatal recovery and relationships to menopause, healthy aging with strength, wisdom and vitality.
I love to embrace wisdom with awareness and passion.
Now, I’m bringing this work into the corporate space—supporting teams to reduce stress, improve focus, and create sustainable balance in high-pressure environments.
This is not just fitness. This is transformation.
If you’re ready to bring real, lasting wellbeing into your workplace or community, I’d love to connect.

I know 💯 in every part of my being that Movement is Medicine for the Mind.Body.Heart.Spirit.
Join me as I bring back my TribalGroove Fusion where we feel the freedom of movement and the energy rise through the highs and lows of flowing with the music and awakening your body and your mind. As a child I danced wildly through the bush on our land in Duffy’s Forest. Sadly this space is no longer in my family but I am seeking an outdoor space. If there are any suggestions please message me. Meanwhile I will start once more in my Manly Vale Studio Friday 17th April at 9:30am.

Ready to Move?
Are you a woman over 50, over 60, over 70 plus. Do you move your body and your mind daily?

Movement is Medicine for the Mind.Body.Heart.Spirit and has been my mantra for many years when I teach, when I share the stage, when I live my daily life, when I see clients from 45 through to 80 years and beyond respond in absolute joy and trust in themselves when they make the moves that keep them strong and relevant. When I am told “I could not have done this without you.” Or “I practice this every day and know I am stronger.” Or “My balance has never been better.” I share my 10 Principles of total MindBody Balance in my classes, presentations, courses and books. If you want to find out more plus my new Menopause Hub please check
www.jillhq.com.au/menopause-hub
for all things pre, post and way beyond menopause as we women have 42% life to live well over 60 and living the best time of life in strength and empowerment.

She said “it is a beret sort of night” Elodie.
My fabulous daughter doing her music and we both arrived at the gig with berets on. is her music/performer name and she is so talented. Check out her music on Spotify or follow her at her gigs. From Singer/Songwriter/Musician to DJ. I know music and dance are part of our DNA.
