If the mind is relax, same goes to your body.
The three primary things you need to learn about meditation are the proper breathing, letting go of negative thoughts and visualization.
Breathing. Focus on your breath. Breathe in your stomach and feel your abdomen expand. Pay attention to the time in between your inhale and exhale as you complete your first inhalation. This is the time when you are neither exhaling nor inhaling. When you stop breathing, even if it is just a very short moment, the chatter that is in your mind also stops. As you complete one full breath, feel your stomach and chest. Don't forget to pay attention in between breaths and be always aware of these points. You should breathe naturally without trying to force anything.
Do not be anxious with your thoughts. Stay focus on breathing. When thoughts arise, try to get rid of it immediately. Do not constrain yourself not to imagine either. Thoughts will come naturally in mind but do not become emotionally involved with them. If you find yourself bothered with your thoughts, go back to breathing and the present moment. Dedicate this time with your meditation entirely.
Visualization. Integrate your visualization with your breathing. You may want to visualize a serene place while inhaling. Recall a time when you were at peace within yourself. Revive that feeling while exhaling the negative thoughts in you. Feel that you are becoming rejuvenated and lighter. Remain focus and start feeling positively and energized.
