It is a basic practice of concentration on the steadiness of the body. In Sanskrit kaya means body and sthairyam means steadiness. Because of the interrelation between body and the mind, when the body becomes steady and still the mind follows suit. Therefore, each of the meditation practices should begin with Kaya sthairyam. Only when the body is absolutely steady and immobile should the actual meditation practice begin. It is also important to note that the mind remains one pointed only while the body is still. As soon as any part of the body moves, the mind also moves. Thus the concentration is broken and once broken it can not be attained again in the same sitting. If meditation is attempted with an unsteady body and fluctuating mind, no benifits will result from the practice even if you perform it for a hundred years. The only result will be tension, frustration and a broken mind. Therefore give your attention to the preparatory practises in the beginning. Master Kaya sthairyam, then you will be able to proceed with the practices of meditation without any obstacle.
