I recently started following yoga from YouTube videos at home. After a week, I’ve started feeling mild lower back pain. I’m not sure if my posture is wrong or if this is normal muscle soreness. Should I stop?

Mild soreness after starting yoga can be normal due to muscle activation, especially if your body was previously inactive. However, sharp or persistent lower back pain often indicates improper posture, weak core engagement, or overstretching. Many beginners collapse into poses without proper alignment. It’s advisable to focus on technique, engage your core muscles, and avoid forcing flexibility. If pain persists beyond a few days, consult a qualified instructor or healthcare professional.
