DharmaNet International:
"If you don't have some actual feeling of practice, that is not practice. Even though you sit in the right posture, follow your breath, and follow all the instructions that are given to you, this still may be empty zen. This is because even though you are following the instructions, you are not kind enough to yourself. Just to follow your breathing doesn't make sense. If you are very kind with your breaths, one after another, then you will have a refreshing, warm feeling with your zazen."
