The way I was taught (from listening to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi) it doesn't matter if your mind keeps chattering, just let it be and keep quietly returning to your mantra (or whatever method you are using) don't force it or feel stressed. The thoughts will come and go, let them and gradually it will become easier...
