I understand the basics such as Four Noble Truths, Eightfold Noble Path and Five Precepts

Hi peen,
That's more than enough and much more than I will ever need for my practice. Filling your head with 'knowledge' about Buddhism can be a wonderful hobby or diversion but it's not the same as practice.

If you are still breathing, then you can do anapanasati. It's all you need.
