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.

You’ll find weekly breathwork and mindfulness classes, weekend Calm Stays, and couples reconnection retreats—intimate, overnight experiences designed to restore harmony and presence. Each month, Rise Temple also hosts day retreats that weave together slow breathwork, conscious movement, and creative exploration.

For those beyond the land, the 6-week online course, Master Your Breath, Master Your Life, offers a deeply guided path into daily breath practice, mindset transformation, and inner clarity. Through breath-led meditations, embodied tools, and gentle self-inquiry, this course supports you in creating calm, building self-trust, and reconnecting with your higher self—one breath at a time. It brings the spirit of Rise Temple into your everyday life, wherever you are in the world.

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.

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.

  • “Breathwork with Amanda was calming and I felt that I needed to calm down a bit from my mental speed and pace. To release into the body and feel more meditative. It was like a meditation practice but guided... so more closely attuned to the sensations in the body, and slowing down the breath which is a huge stress release... for me anyway!”

  • “I truly loved this experience! It helped me to understand where I am at in my peri-menopause journey. The information provided by Amanda (naturopath) and Stephanie (nutritionist) was so helpful. It really gave me a well rounded understanding of what I can do to minimise any symptoms. The lunch was fresh and delicious. Lastly, the breathwork and sound experience with Amanda Jane was out of this world. I was transported to many places. Using the noise cancelling headphones kept the whole experience very personal. Thank you so much x”

The music was gorgeous and Amanda Jane's voice is lovely and soothing as she guided us in the practice. I haven't used wireless headphones with breathwork before - Wow!

  • “I had read about Breathwork in many Sunday supplements, and how it could ease the feeling of being overwhelmed in menopause. Rather than blindly reacting, it was time to respond to the challenges I was facing and give this a go. I prepared my comfy nest and connected to the other side of the World from London where Amanda Jane lead me and other women softly into our journeys. It wasn’t long before I had found my rhythm, mesmerising music danced in an out of my conscience, whilst Amanda Jane’s guidance was beautifully paced. Wow! My body was paying attention with a sensation of calm and connection. The inner peace and wellbeing my body felt measured how wonderful this session was and a sense of personal transformation. I can see now why this practice is praised as a tool to relieve mental, physical, and emotional tension. So much so that I want to do this again! ”

  • “Amanda created such a safe and welcoming environment. It was beautiful and I could see she had put a lot of thought into getting the room just right. Her energy was so safe and nurturing. I have been a smoker for many years and since the session with Amanda I have had 1 cigarette (normally 10-15+ a day) I felt she was able to help me make a major breakthrough. I felt safe and I feel she has an incredible gift as a healer.” ~ Sophia S, Cabarita, NSW Australia
