Jhana Meditation is the form of meditation that the Buddha practiced prior to his awakening and throughout his career. 
Jhana meditation concentrates the mind. Simply put one focuses on the breath, the body breathing, the relaxation in the breath, the pleasure of the relaxation, etc... Most simply put, how can I make the breath even more comfortable? As we learn to make the breath more comfortable, the mind concentrates, and the body becomes increasingly relaxed and becomes a better container for a clear mind.
Jhana meditation leads to states of absorption where the sense of self falls away and "boundless" states can be experienced. It is very good for the beginning meditator because of how it calms the mind and body.
