The first step in yoga is creating a comfortable space to practice. This involves finding a quiet place and laying out a yoga mat. Getting into comfortable, lightweight clothing is also recommended to allow freedom of movement. To start, you might begin with grounding poses like Child’s Pose, where you kneel and lower your torso between your legs, reaching your arms forward to promote relaxation and focus on your breath [5].

Additionally, understanding that yoga is about presence and self-acceptance is crucial. It's important to approach your practice with patience and without the expectation of perfection, as yoga is for everyone, regardless of flexibility [3][5].
