Learn the basics
The basics of yoga include:
Postures (asanas): Yoga postures are designed to stretch and strengthen the body. They can be simple or challenging, and they can be modified to meet the individual needs of each practitioner.
Breathing (pranayama): Breathing exercises are an important part of yoga. They help to calm the mind and body, and they can also help to improve cardiovascular health.
Meditation or relaxation: Yoga often includes a period of meditation or relaxation at the end of the practice. This helps to integrate the benefits of the postures and breathing exercises.

Improve yourself
Listen to your body. Don’t push yourself too hard, especially when you are first starting out. If you feel any pain, come out of the pose.
Focus on your breath. Breathing is an important part of yoga. Pay attention to your breath and try to breathe deeply and evenly throughout your practice.
Be mindful. Yoga is more than just a physical practice. It is also a way to cultivate mindfulness and self-awareness. Try to focus on the present moment and your own body during your practice.
