Pay attention to the air filling your lungs and the rise and fall of your diaphragm. In meditation you can become aware that this is happening. Work this insight into your breathing till it becomes a regular part of your meditation and at a point you will be able to stop counting your breaths.

With practice your breath automatically becomes softer and gentler and it signifies that your body is responding well to your meditation. Once the body has become more efficient, you require less oxygen. Take 3 or 4 deep slow breaths before you start preparing for meditation.
