The Four Foundations of Mindfulness
is a core teaching on Buddhist meditation
which some say forms 80% of practice.

Here is a related study guide:

The intent is to cultivate and practice:
insight serenity contemplation concentration equanimity
(skt: vipassana samadhi dhyana dharana jhana upekṣa)

The Sattipattana Sutta from the Buddhist Pali Cannon
and the Yoga Sutras from Patajanli
form the best description of meditation around.

Hope this helps,
May all beings be happy!
