Your back should be relatively straight, but you shouldnt be trying to make it straight, it should just sit like that. Put your hands in your lap, then concentrate on breathing in and out. Focus on your breath, and if another though arises dont try to suppress it, just let it rise and fall and return to your breath.
At first you might get bored after like 5 mins, but once you get a bit better at it it becomes a joy. Remember though, that breathing one is like the basics, thats by no means the limits of meditation.
