People are either drawn to yoga or intimidated by the postures or ‘asanas’, and the most common misconception that I hear is “no, I’m not flexible enough to do yoga”. Here’s a secret – if you can breathe in and out, you ARE doing yoga already!
Yoga is not solely about the postures, it is also about breathing (pranayama), meditation and practicing things like compassion and mindfulness or awareness. People with all sorts of body types, shapes and sizes practice yoga, there are no boundaries!
That said, you probably do want to know whether the physical aspect of yoga is for you, and any good yoga teacher will always be able to suggest different variations on a pose to suit your level and ability. There should never be any judgement or competitiveness in yoga – it is an incredibly personal practice.
