Return to Stillness
Private 1:1 In-house Breath & Belief
A private 3-hour immersion in slow breathwork, meditation and witness consciousness
A private space to step away from the noise of everyday life and explore the thoughts, beliefs and patterns that may be keeping you feeling stressed, overwhelmed or disconnected from yourself.
Through gentle breathwork, meditation and witness consciousness, you'll begin to observe thoughts, beliefs and emotions without becoming caught within them, creating greater space for awareness, clarity and presence in everyday life.
Why You May Be Here
You may feel as though your mind rarely switches off. Feeling overwhelmed by the activity of the mind, caught in recurring thoughts or patterns, or simply disconnected from yourself.
Perhaps stress or burnout has gradually become your normal, you're caught in recurring thoughts or patterns, or you simply know that something within your life needs to shift.
This private immersion gives you the space to stop, explore what may be sitting beneath the noise, and experience a different way of relating to your thoughts and yourself.
What to Expect
Your session begins with gentle conversation and an exploration of the thoughts, beliefs and patterns that may be influencing how you experience yourself and your life.
From there, we move into a guided witness consciousness meditation. Rather than trying to stop or change your thoughts, you are invited to simply watch them arise and fall without attaching to them, adding a story or becoming caught within what the mind is presenting.
We then move into a deeper breathwork journey, using gentle, conscious breathing to calm the nervous system, followed by guided visualisation and a deeper inward exploration.
At the end of your journey, we take time to talk about what arose and how you are feeling. We return again to witness consciousness and explore how this practice can be carried into everyday life, allowing thoughts and reactions to be observed without automatically adding narrative or feeding what is already happening within the mind.
Over time, as thoughts are no longer continually reinforced through attention, reaction and story, they can begin to lose their hold. What once felt unquestionably true may soften, arise less often and eventually become quieter. The practice is not about trying to silence the mind, but about no longer giving every thought something to hold onto. We allow it to arise, observe it without becoming involved in its story, and allow it to pass. Within that space, the mind can begin to quieten naturally.
The intention is not to eliminate thought, but to experience that you can observe what arises without needing to become it. To simply allow it to be.
No previous breathwork or meditation experience is needed.
Continue Your Practice
Following your session, you'll receive access to the Rise Temple meditation and breathwork library, with guided witness consciousness meditations and gentle breathwork journeys to support your nervous system and continue your practice at home.
Your time at Rise Temple
Your private immersion takes place at Rise Temple in the Byron Bay hinterland, giving you dedicated time away from the noise and demands of everyday life to slow down and turn inward.
Your three hours include time for reflection and exploration, gentle breathwork, meditation and witness consciousness, along with your private infrared sauna.
Everything you need for your session is here. Simply bring swimmers and two towels for the sauna and arrive ready to give yourself this time.
The intention is not simply to experience stillness while you're here, but to begin recognising that same space within yourself and carry that awareness back into everyday life.

“After experiencing an eye-opening couples retreat with Amanda Jane last year, I recently had a follow-up 1:1 online session with her.
Amanda is a wonderful listener. She gave me practical insights on how to express myself more clearly and how to use positivity when beginning uneasy conversations in my relationship. One point she made about meditation has stayed with me — that when we are still and simply observing the world, allowing life to unfold, that is when we are at our strongest. Not when we are rushing around and filling our time.
The second part of the session was one of Amanda’s guided visualisations. She took the time needed to help me slow my breathing right down and completely relax. As she guided me through different surroundings — crossing a bridge, walking a pathway, entering a new space — I was encouraged to listen to my subconscious and notice how I felt.
Afterwards, we debriefed on my experience and explored how it connected to my conscious thoughts and current life situations.
I would thoroughly recommend this work to anyone seeking deeper insight into themselves.
