Elizabeth,
   Good to hear you have a new job.  The commute doesn’t sound good.   A basic yoga class is good to start with.  I often recommend a “gentle yoga” class for people new to yoga.  Backbends like cobra are often challenging at first as they use muscles that we don’t use as much.  We tend to a lot of bending forward but seldom to we bend backwards.  One key thing to remember if it hurts like in a sharp pain then back off as something’s not right.  If you feel a aching pain the next day from stretching or using the muscles then that is usually a good thing.
