Meditating is easy to learn. To be ready, all you need are comfort, quiet, a meditative tool such as a mantra and a meditative attitude.
Go to a private place by yourself or with another meditator where you won't be interrupted.
Allow 10-20 minutes for meditation and stick with it. You can look at your watch on occasion but don't set an alarm, because it might startle you and ruin your relaxation.
Sit down on a comfortable mat, cushion or chair and try to relax every muscle in your body from bottom to top. Close your eyes and breathe deeply.
To help stop your internal dialogue and health calm down, silently repeat a word or mantra. It can be religious or philosophical, as long as it makes you feel good. When thoughts intrude, just say, "Oh, well" to yourself and start all over.
Adopt a calm, passive attitude, a neutral mind in which you don't judge yourself or others.
After you finish, sit quietly for a couple of minutes and try to carry your calm, anti-aging, meditative attitude into your daily activities.
