You can't really go too wrong by starting right now. Sit still in a comfortable position, relax, and focus on your breathing.
You don't need to know more to get started.
- cellularmitosis 16y agothere is one point more important than these. when you try to avoid thinking about anything, naturally your /dev/random of a brain will present you with many thoughts inspite of your efforts. the most important point is to not get upset at yourself for not being able to achieve "no mind" instantly. getting upset with yourself leads to a negative feedback loop which completely undermines what you are engaging in. I find a helpful illustration is a glass of champagne. the bubbles will keep appearing. note them, and allow them to float to the top, and dissipate. do not get upset with yourself when you find that they keep coming.
