The easiest way: put more fat on your body 
Try either stretching your arms over head or bending your knees or both - it will move your center of gravity around, and if you find the right place you'll float.

Well the problem with me is that I wieght 230 and I'm only 12% body fat, so I have no choice but to sink, I appreciate the tip pineapple I'm gonna try that one out later.

the dead man's float is one of the easiest things to do in the water since even a dead man can do it. the key is to drop your head by tucking your chin to your chest but at the same time relaxing the rest of you body a little bit. also put your arms above your head and separate your legs and you shouldn't have any problems floating.
