How to start meditating when your mind won't sit still: yoga's classical order (the eight limbs, Yoga Sutra 2.29) puts the body first, then the breath, then meditation. 1) Move the body with a few minutes of easy walking or arm swings. 2) Slow the breath: hand on your belly, breathe out a little longer. 3) Then sit.
Start gently; if anything hurts, stop. Never force the breath.
