Thank you so much for your comment. I really appreciate your feedback.
I highly recommend investing in these books:
Good luck! And I hope you have a swell time on stage!
Check out /r/meditation and /r/mindfulness
I started with a book:
http://www.amazon.com/Mindfulness-English-Bhante-Henepola-Gunaratana/dp/0861719069
There are plenty of other books depending on what slant you want (religious, secular, etc). That book is somewhat inbetween.
There are tons of videos online. There are apps like Insight Timer with many guided meditations on mindfulness.
There are paid services like Headspace that guide you through the process.
I personally am a mindfulness coach so I teach online and offline. You can probably find a teacher or coach nearby if you live in a major city. If not, you can probably find a Buddhist who would be willing to teach you.
Start today - you can start here: http://www.samharris.org/blog/item/how-to-meditate
Practice that for 5 - 10 minutes a day for a few weeks. Then start reading and watching videos. You'll catch on. Persistence is key - it takes time and it progresses differently for everyone.
