I would start with some guided meditation. Check out Deepak Chopra- he's pretty well known and wonderful. You can just find some on youtube. Guided meditation is a good way when you're first beginning as it can be hard to start focusing. There are some great books out there too. Thich Nhah Hanh is a wonderful teacher and has many books that are quite helpful in explaining mindfulness. One of my personal favorite books is called Zen Heart by Ezra Bayda which focuses on detaching yourself from your ego and focusing on just being.

See if there is anyone in your community for group meditation or start one yourself. There are also lots of retreats that people participate in. All of these are great resources that you should look into. My biggest advice to you is to breathe. Whenever you lose focus, just acknowledge that your mind as wandered and then focus on your breathing again.
Namaste.
