I find that listening to some trance music, appropriately enough, puts me into a meditative state. I'll notice that I've been rocking back and forth slightly and thinking...nothing!...for about 20 minutes. Better than a nap! There are other techniques I use for "presencing" myself in my body - total progressive relaxation, breathing exercises, yoga.
A good way to start is just to find a comfortable position and do nothing but pay attention to your breathing for 5 minutes. Notice when your mind goes somewhere else and just bring it back to your breathing.
Good luck!
