The easiest way to think about breathing when you meditate is to just allow it to be completely natural. When we meditate we're not trying to breathe in a special way - it's very tempting to think that there is something more to do than that but actually there's not. Generally in mindfulness we're trying to allow things to unfold very naturally so it's about watching the breath and letting the natural rise and fall to take place.
