Up till now you thought you were the voice inside your head
That voice is your Ego
You are much more than an Ego
Your Ego is in charge of "Doing"
Your 'greater self' (for lack of a better term) is in charge of "Being"
How does one "Be"?
You do nothing... constructively.
That's what you do when you meditate... you focus on nothing.
Your rational mind is going to go crazy over this concept, it sounds silly,
almost "hari krishna-ish"
Don't worry, your ego will get over it.
See this post on another of my recovery blogs:

Oh yeah, I'm going to have to make a post on how to meditate.
There is no 'wrong way' to meditate, however there are many ways to 'assist' you, for starters you have to know what you want to get out of meditating.
Tony Robbins says "Why to" is more important than "How to".
