Well, I don't know that it's supposed to be interesting. My advice is to meditate either first thing in the AM or last thing before bed. Focus on the breath. You will lose focus but shift it back to the breath. i highly recommend the books/cds or Dr. Andrew Weil and also Jon Kabbat-Zin.

I have done some meditation with my spiritual work. I found that the easiest way to start is with guided meditations. You can buy CDs etc with other people guiding it. That way you can relax and concentrate on the words rather than trying to do it yourself. Doing it yourself will become easier with practice. Enjoy.
