What’s inquiry?

Inquiry is a practice for personal development. It combines elements of mindfulness, psychological exploration and coaching, in a single, powerful practice.   

To inquire is to dive in to your inner world like a diver exploring a reef. With friendly interest, you get in touch and explore and understand what’s really happening for you. Through this you can be liberated from your past, and heal the disconnection from your inner being.

Inquiry is widely used alongside meditation. This particularly powerful form of inquiry is the main practice of the Diamond Approach, and can be transformational for anyone.
