Treasure Maps is a 6-day residential retreat, an intensive workshop for people with Focusing experience who want to apply our Untangling® method to life’s most hard-to-change issues.
We’ve been teaching Treasure Maps in 15 countries over the past 25 years, helping thousands of people learn our method, getting responses like this one from Paul Fitzgerald: "The Treasure Maps experience was like a dissolving of an old way of seeing life and having new eyes to engage life with more freedom. I'd highly encourage anyone interested in deepening their Focusing to take this course."
We believe that transformation occurs most readily in an atmosphere of respect, acceptance, openness, warmth, playfulness, and support. Our mission is to enable you to live

Bruce Gibbs was a good and loving man, wanting to help people wake up to more of life, and we miss him.
We want to share with the larger community of Focusing an experiential sense of what it was like to be with him. So, in this living memorial, we want to honor him by practicing the kind of connection and interaction we enjoyed together.

What if enriching our Focusing practice helped us open this ‘possibility space’ in a way that we may have not yet encountered?
This workshop is both an invitation and an opportunity for Focusers to explore anew your experience and understanding of Focusing
