I have done a bit of "concentrating on breathing" meditation.

There's a lot to breathing. The sound of it. The thought of it (if I'm counting breaths). The feeling of it, in my belly, throat and nose...

I find all those things to be too much to concentrate on. So I concentrate on just one of those things. I concentrate on the feeling of breath in the tip of my nose.

It felt super silly the first time too. I'm glad I started doing this.
