You might start by thinking about how you're breathing right now. You are probably making use of 2/3 of your lung's capacity with an occasional cleansing breath. Unless you are working hard, this is probably the best breathing pattern to emulate under water.
By not over extending your lung capacity you will also be moderating the normal up and down movement in your buoyancy once you learn to balance your weighting and air content in your BC.
And not fighting buoyancy is the most important aspect in air consumption, IMO.
