Just put your beans in a large bowl or pot of water and let them sit submerged for 8-12 hours. Soaking actually begins bean germination and promotes enzyme release. The germination process is what breaks down all the complex bean sugars. Soaking helps to break down all the complex sugars in beans, sugars like the indigestible oligosaccharides.

Beans should be soaked before cooking, and the water should be thrown out. How long to soak depends on the bean.

When you soak the beans in salt water, sodium ions end up replacing some of the magnesium and calcium, effectively softening the skins.
