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
