I started a yoga practice at the beginning of the year and it’s been amazing. I wasn’t inactive before — being in NYC I always walk and I used to run a good amount — but yoga has opened my body up further than I really realized was possible. All those years sitting at a desk coding and studying all day really took its toll. I’d suggest trying a few yoga schools out until you find the teachers you connect with who teach a style you like (I’ve found Ashtanga to work for me). Then just commit yourself to struggle through it for the first couple months until your body starts opening up.
