What EXACTLY do you do when you meditate?

I have recently been very intrigued by meditation. I am not exactly sure what it entails. If I wanted to light incense in my room and candles while listening to music and doing some breathing or praying... would this be considered meditation?

I am just curious because I have ADHD and anxiety. Music is a large part of my life as a double major in Music Therapy and Music Composition. It has a large impact on me. Also, an indoor percussion ensemble I love played a show called "Mantra" and they gave us incense that I loved. Now every time I smell that particular scent, I associate it with the music and how much of their souls they just put into the music.

I'm constantly tense and I don't like people touching me so I will not get a massage, but meditation might be something I can do, since it is alone in the privacy of my home.
