I’ve had a great experience with The Mind Illuminated[0] which I discovered a couple years ago… via an HN recommendation! Depending on your preferences you may want to ignore some of the more religious/spiritual parts in it. Either way, it has had a big, positive, and lasting influence on my life (even though I haven’t been meditating much lately anymore). [0]: https://a.co/d/08L5nc8t

+1 for that book but it's a bit rough for a start I think. I'd try headspace, calm or any of the free guided meditations on YouTube for a bit before diving into that book. And yes the book reads quite spiritual despite the author being also a neurologist I think so it might not be for everyone.
