The best way for beginners to meditate is to start with a guided meditation. Pick a peaceful environment, sit or lie comfortably, and focus on your breathing. Allow yourself to relax and pay attention to the sensations of each breath. As thoughts come up, notice them, acknowledge them, and then let them go. You can practice meditation for as little as 5 minutes per session, and increase your practice from there.
