Pain with yoga

I am starting to do yoga again after knowing some basics from years before. Im having alot of pain in my hips ( due to weight and post baby) and am looking for some tips or poses to help this. I use an app and online courses, going to a studio now isnt feasible. I find it difficult to do some basic sitting positions even. Anyone ever dealt with this? Thanks.

    Try Yoga with Adriane on YouTube. She is great at giving modifications and positioning advice.

    I have - also have lower back pain - and researched that there are certain poses I should not do. I was doing Yoga with Adrienne’s 30 days of yoga and had to stop. The below has been helpful for me - and she has others that may help you. She stays longer in the poses that has been helping me.

    Sitting on a block or a rolled up blanket in seated poses can be a good adjustment, do you use any props at the moment?

    Remember to meet yourself in the moment instead of where you were last time you had an active yoga practice.
