Trying to Get Better

Depression is often crippling, but they often say one cannot be fixed if it is not at the choice of their will. The idea of being a person so strong and unable to cope is what [was] bothering me lately. I went to the gym today, did some yoga when I got home, chose to meditate tonight as well. If I can control my body perhaps over time I can control my mind.

"The secret of zazen does not lie in the awareness of the inhalation or the exhalation.  It lies in the gap in between these breaths.  It lies when the breath is spontaneously suspended.  It is in this gap where the mysteries of the Universe are hidden."
