I recently have been "attempting" morning yoga right when I get out of bed to awaken my body to what the day has for me. Do you have any insight about some things I should be doing. Im a newbie at it

If you have a portable mirror, position it to see yourself from the side to check and correct your posture. Make morning yoga/meditation a daily habit; incorporate it into your morning routine. Read up on meditation. If you are looking for an immediate starting point, a commonly referenced online resource is Chapter 5 of Mindfulness in Plain English.

And as I mentioned in an earlier comment, sit on a cushion/rolled up yoga mat to help alleviate potential back/posture problems. Focus on your breathing and on observing your thoughts.
