"As I've been healing, I've experienced joy."

Breakthroughs in every session

In every Inquiry Meditation session: 

​

  • Multiple trauma relief breakthroughs occur;

  • Each breakthrough is gentle, joyous, and pleasure-fueled;

  • Shifts occur for meditators in their very real everyday lives within hours and days of sessions.

People who do this deep work are seeking true resolution of their triggers, trauma, and childhood wounds.

 

While some IM'ers are new to somatic work--welcome!--other IM'ers have tried other modalities and are delighted to find in IM the trauma relief they've been so earnestly seeking, beginning from Session #1.

"Leslie is magic. Truly. Working on my relationship with myself, healing my inner critic, and regulating my emotions when distressed has been a long journey. I really mean it when I say that nothing has ever felt as impactful in healing my relationship with myself as my work with Leslie.

 

She has a way of getting me to see my inner parts, and growing a relationship with them. If you are familiar with internal family systems psychotherapy, Leslie is most definitely an IFS coach - even though she doesn't call herself that! Her intuition and wisdom radiate out and have helped me find my own intuition and wisdom in my body. I am so grateful."

Let's NOT solve your problem. 

In Inquiry Meditation: 

 

We do not try to alleviate the searing trauma-based pain that has plagued you for decades...

 

And we do not solve the huge, huge problems that are ruining your whole fucking life. 

​​

In Inquiry Meditation, we do something infinitely more helpful.

 

We focus where all your problems and pain originate: at the level of sensation. 

​

The level of sensation is where all pain begins...and where it dissolves. 

​​​

Inquiry Meditation includes elements of Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, Classic Pleasure Theory, The Work by Byron Katie, and Vipassana Meditation.

"As someone who has spent years protecting myself by numbing uncomfortable feelings, I have found Leslie's method of Inquiry Meditation to be safe, gentle and incredibly effective.
 
Leslie has an incredible spirit and energy which is both energizing and calming - it's hard to explain but you understand the minute you meet her. She is a gifted practitioner and a gift to my life.​"
 
--Carolyn L.

Why does Inquiry Meditation begin working so quickly? 

Inquiry Meditation is not a quick fix. There is no quick fix for trauma healing.

​

Healing, though, is not primarily a matter of time.

 

Healing is a matter of direct relationship with our pain.

​

And that is what IM is: a concentrated dose of evermore direct, precise, and gentle engagement--relationship--with our pain. ​

​​

This is why the modality begins working so quickly

"Leslie will change your life. I'm already noticing great shifts and can't wait to see where I'll be 6 months in. I recommend her to anyone who will listen. Do you want to dissolve lifelong blocks and start flowing in the way you were born to? Work with Leslie."

Kelley S. 

What happens during sessions?

We begin by feeling for where pain is coming up in response to the problem or stress you're experiencing.

 

The pain may be in your chest, for example. You won't have to look hard for this pain--it wants to be seen! (This applies to numbness as well.)
 

Once we've identified where the pain is occurring, we engage with it.

​

I call IM a pleasure practice because the process of our interaction with the pain--the healing process itself, that is--feels really good.

​​​​

Your body registers this good feeling as immediate relief from your suffering. ​​

"Leslie's work is transformational. She is capable of helping people reach tender places while feeling safe and cared for, and holding the most gentle and caring space during the entire process. I highly recommend Leslie Quigless and her beautiful work for all of those who are on a healing path."
