The Buddha's Triangle - by Helen Hansen

COURSE

The Buddha's Triangle

With Helen Hansen

In this course, we explore the Buddha’s Triangle — a simple yet profound relationship between three areas of the holistic body that support calm presence, emotional harmony, and embodied awareness. Zen teaches that awakening is not distant or abstract. It is revealed through ordinary attention, moment by moment, within the body itself. The Buddha’s Triangle reflects this embodied wisdom.

Her teaching is known for its gentle clarity, weaving ancient insights into practical, lived experience. With a calm, intuitive presence, Helen guides students to listen inwardly — not striving for change, but allowing balance, trust and awareness to arise naturally through the body. Her strength lies in translating subtle teachings into simple, felt practices that support emotional steadiness, inner direction and everyday wellbeing.

Lesson 1

Attuning To The Three Gates Of The Buddha's Triangle

The still heart reflects the world without distortion. When the breath is known, the moment is known. True compassion begins with balance. These three Gates are the points of passage of the Buddha's Triangle.

Lesson 2

Opening The Three Gates Of The Buddha's Triangle

Now, we open each of the Gates through the layers of the physical and subtle bodies. The triangle is formed by: Heart 7 - at the wrist crease, on the little-finger side; Lung 9 - at the wrist crease, on the thumb side; Pericardium 6 - on the inner forearm, three finger-widths from the wrist. Together, these points form a living triangle that harmonizes breath, heart, and inner balance.

Gentle, unrushed, fully explained locations. Thank you Helen. I found this course following the pet accupressure course- pet health begins with owner health so I am thrilled to take time for my care also. Thank you for sharing your skills :-)
