Philip Martin’s The Zen Path Through Depression is a compassionate
and spiritual approach to rediscovering joy. Using easy-to-follow
techniques and practical advice, Philip Martin shows you how to ease
depression through the spiritual practice of Zen. His lessons, full of
gentle guidance and sensitivity, are a product of his experiences in
using Zen practices and wisdom to alleviate his own depression. Each
chapter focuses on a different aspect of depression and recommends a
meditation or reflection. With these tools, coping with depression
becomes a way to mend the spirit while enriching the soul. “Martin
has written a wise, compassionate, and nurturing guide through the
self-oppression of depression.” —Harold H. Bloomfield, M.D.,
bestselling author of How to Heal Depression “A wonderful, strong
breath directly into the heart. Martin lays a very healing foundation
for addressing suffering with love and awareness. For those lost in
unhappiness, The Zen Path Through Depression offers the possibility of
joy. Happiness comes from getting what you want, joy from being who
you truly are.” —Stephen Levine, bestselling author of Unattended
Sorrow: Recovering from Loss and Reviving the Heart “Martin offers
clear-eyed Zen medicine for those afflicted with depression and for
everyone who seeks to use their fluctuating mental states to see more
clearly. His exercises are particularly helpful in avoiding the
pitfalls of obsessive or stagnant practice.” —Sensei Pat Enkyo
