Thoughts come and go..... labelling them makes them more solid.

Yes, a taxonomy of thoughts is not a good idea during meditation...

Just let your mind to still Gary dear, concentrate on your breathing and watch your posture... In my short experience with zazen as I have been improving my posture the stillness of mind has become much more easy because breathing goes more smoothly. So when the mind is stressed, recalling my posture, at any moment, at any place makes easier to still it again.
