"Working with Leslie has been an absolute joy! I deeply appreciate Leslie’s depth of understanding about the body and how to go deep into ourselves in a way that doesn’t overwhelm our body’s capacity (something that I really look for, value and prize in any somatic practitioner, being one myself!).
I have felt so attuned to, cared for, and meticulously tended to in my work with Leslie in a way that has allowed me to feel safe enough to unfurl. I would recommend Leslie to anyone who is looking for masterful support in coming into their full, vibrant self - and if you are ready to do DEEP healing work that reverberates in your life well past the end of your session, Leslie is the practitioner for you.
I have several friends who have chosen to work with Leslie and they have all had INCREDIBLE experiences as well, so I have total faith and trust in Leslie’s ability to support inner transformation!"

"I feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Leslie. During our two-hour session, she lovingly and objectively helped to coax my demons to the surface of my consciousness.
Simply locating some of my issues in my body and nervous system, as well as assigning shapes, colors and textures to them has significantly helped me to identify these feelings in the moment, enabling me to slow down and maintain control of my emotions in certain sticky situations. I’ve noticed improvements in my personal life, and positive shifts in the way I treat myself. Thank you so much, Leslie!"

"Leslie. You’re a genuine genie genius. Your powers are so good that I didn’t realize how effective they were–until I forgot about the issue that seemed so BIG .
Until you checked back in with me, I had TOTALLY forgotten about the thing that was so sensational before I got on our call.
Since our call I’ve been letting my inner child come out and play more—self-caring more, and generally not giving a f*** about my whiny situation before. I’ve been so chill about everything—my stress level has gone down and I just feel more at peace inside myself."

"Leslie is such a gifted and patient practitioner.
​
I came to Inquiry Meditation already somewhat familiar with Byron Katie's process, The Work, but the times I had tried it it had never really stuck for me. Leslie created such a spacious, easy, judgment-free container that it was much easier to go deeper than I ever have before and I’m still feeling the ripples of safety and belonging in my body that we co-created.
It was really more the quality of the space than anything else that let me go so deep. I ended up exploring disgust, which was a very scary and triggering emotion for me, so much so that a few weeks earlier when I had tried to explore it through a meditation I only got seconds in and then had to spend two hours scrolling Instagram to re-regulate.
But under Leslie’s careful, intuitive guidance I was able to feel the disgust, express the disgust, and get to the little girl trapped in the past who had experienced it and rescue her."

"I am a licensed clinical social worker and addictions counselor. Personal psychotherapy is part of my training. Over the 20+ years of my career, I have utilized many diverse modalities as a practitioner and client. Having the privilege of working with Leslie Quigless has been by far one of the best and most effective therapeutic experiences I have ever encountered.
Leslie radiates warmth and generosity and creates the perfect holding environment to allow for deep emotional work and healing to take place. She is patient, kind, and encouraging.
Leslie has been able to help me process things that no one else has been able to access with me. I am grateful to her for her generosity and gentleness when I am at my most vulnerable. Investing in my work with Leslie has yielded some profound healing for me. I cannot recommend her strongly enough."

"Inquiry Meditation offers the chance to return to childhood experiences that are the sources of painful beliefs and patterns that still affect you today. In returning to the root experiences - there is a chance to see things more clearly, to embrace a fuller truth of the reality, and to have a somatic experience of healing.
I feel as though I have been able to time travel and let a younger version of myself express thoughts and feelings she never got to express, shed tears she never got to shed, and have support from the ultimate source of wisdom, love, and comfort – me, the person who knows her best.
​
Because IM is not talking about a memory – but immersing yourself in an experience – your nervous system gets to have an experience of healing it hasn’t had before. The insights stay with you, because they live in your body.
Leslie is a solid source of grounding, love, wisdom, and comfort who can share this work with others because of her devotion to the process and each person's experience with it."
