A Private Retreat Space for Mindful Living in the Northern Rivers
BREATHWORK. MEDITATION. MINDFULNESS.
Why Your Inner World Matters…
THE BREATHWORK PATH TO CALM, CLARITY & CHANGE
It’s not the outside world that creates overwhelm—it’s how we meet it from within.
When we slow our breath and tend to our inner world with presence and love, everything shifts.
Thoughts soften. Clarity returns. Life begins to feel whole again.
RISE TEMPLE WELLNESS
Rise Temple is not your typical wellness retreat—it’s a living, breathing sanctuary created from the heart, nestled on sacred land in the Northern Rivers hinterland. This is a place where the pace slows, the breath deepens, and your inner world begins to soften and expand.
Here, wellness isn’t performed. It’s embodied.
At Rise Temple, each offering is an invitation to return—to the body, the breath, and the present moment. You’ll find weekly breathwork and mindfulness classes, weekend Calm Stays, and intimate couples reconnection retreats designed to restore harmony and presence.
For those seeking deep nervous system support and personal regeneration, The Breath Spa is a monthly 1:1 or couples experience that weaves together somatic breathwork, massage, and infrared sauna. It’s a journey of release, restoration, and reconnection—held gently in sacred space.
A HOME FROM HOME…
Each month, Rise Temple also hosts soulful day retreats that blend slow breathwork, conscious movement, and creative exploration. And for those beyond the land, the 6-week online course Master Your Breath, Master Your Life offers a guided path into daily breath practice, mindset transformation, and inner clarity—bringing the spirit of Rise Temple into your everyday life, wherever you are.
Every offering is grounded in the belief that transformation doesn’t require force—it requires presence.
The land itself holds a quiet magic. With fruit trees, dams, open skies, and stillness all around, Rise Temple feels like a homecoming. A home from home—lovingly offered to those seeking not escape, but return.
WELCOME, I’M AMANDA JANE
Certified Breath & Mindfulness Guide—also known as The Calm Coach.
I created Rise Temple as a sacred, earth-rooted space for those longing to slow down and reconnect with their true self. I believe slow breathing is one of the most powerful tools we have—and I’ve lived that truth.
As someone who once struggled with social anxiety, I know how breath can reshape the way you view everything.
Slowing your breath:
· Enhances mindfulness, clarity, and decision-making
· Deepens your connection to yourself, others, and the present moment
· Transforms the way you live, work, and love—it’s the foundation for a vibrant and fulfilled life
And I’m here to guide you into that rhythm, one breath at a time.
Breathe. Slow Down. Rise Into Presence.
Breathe. Slow Down. Rise Into Presence.
I can only describe my time at Rise Temple with Amanda J as a gentle, comfortable ‘out of body’ experience From the picturesque drive up through farmland giving way to rainforest, didn’t prepare me for the idyllic setting. Grassy banks, to a small tranquil lake with a waterfall surrounded by lush vegetation… my dream space.
The breathwork sessions were equally as beautiful - very nurturing and safe, yet challenged me to probe a little deeper into my innerself. I loved the format of the sessions and even felt comfortable enough (for the first time ever) to 'share' my experiences openly.
Amanda has a rare gift and I am thankful for a truly life changing experience.

I highly recommend a Breathwork journey with Amanda. I felt safe and supported to dive deep, and really appreciated the dynamic, feminine finesse of Amanda’s Breathwork style. At a transitional point in life my intention was to breakthrough glass ceilings, release and let go of limiting beliefs and do it in a self loving, self affirming, forgiving and accepting way. I’m grateful to be feeling the shift already! Thank you Amanda.
