Take an MBSR class (mindfulness based stress reduction). There usually is at least one certified active practitioner in most major cities. The class lasts about 6-8 weeks and is in my opinion much more effective than anything you can do by reading books or listening to tapes. I found the 10% of the class was learning the techniques and 90% was sharing the struggles and challenges of applying the techniques with others.
