How to Meditate for Beginners - Looking into a Mirror Technique
One of the most powerful techniques is to look at yourself ... in mirror
This meditation technique is my favorite one. It is fun and gives almost mystical experiences. However it does require to make some preparations.Place a mirror large enough to see your face into a dark room. Place a candle next to the mirror so that it did not reflect in the mirror but you could see reflection of your face and eyes.
Now focus all your attention on the image of your eyes in the mirror. Look right into your eyes. Do not move them no matter what. Continue for 30-40 minutes. Repeat this procedure every day.
In a few days you will find that image of your face in mirror start changing. After another few days of such meditation there will be no face in the mirror just emptiness. That is the meditation state most meditation practitioners strive to achieve.

How to Meditate for Beginners - Constantly Practice Self Inquiry
You can always practice self inquiry no matter where you are and what you are doing
If you are really serious about meditation my advice is to practice self inquiry. It goes under other names like self remembering, atma vichara, etc.People like Gurjief, Ramana Maharhsi, Nisargadatta Maharaj advocated this technique.
In my experience this can be the most powerful technique in day-to-day, moment-by-moment life when you don't have enough time to sit in quiet meditation.
Interestingly enough it's the simplicity of this method makes it hard to explain. I will do my best to explain it to you.
The core principal of self inquiry or self remembering is to look at yourself. To pay attention to THAT we call I. If you can observe it it's not THAT. There is something which is always present. When you have been a child it was here. In any good or bad situation it's here. It is that to what we refer as I.
If you keep paying attention as much as you can you will start feeling the difference. Your perception of the world will shift dramatically. But It may take some time though.
