As a beginning yogi you'll almost obliged to look at photos on the Internet and in magazines and see people run poses that you thought not possible poses that you can even think of are Photoshopped. And your comment once insured that this poses at all really, will be able to say "but I can't even stand on one leg for much longer than 10 seconds ... I expect to do?"
The answer to that question is, of course, "not". Maybe never, in fact, because there are certain levels of Yoga that an incredibly long time to achieve, and there is no guarantee that every beginner will want to follow their practice that far, the most important thing about a yoga regime is that you at least a little progress, and luckily there are ways to track your progress and more assured and less ...Well, frightening. one way is to invest in some equipment – and there are some of the better places to start than with a yoga brick, or yoga block.
The advantage of having a yoga block is that there are a number of exercises that you are in a way that could be considered "tricky" without touching the ground with your hand.It doesn't matter so much that you don't "prop" yourself, more that you maintain the shape, as required by the exercise. it is best to do this "free", but is not always possible, so that at the beginning many budding Yogis a yoga bricks use will be to retain the position is supported.Finally, you can lose the block and do the exercise "free".
It is not essential to use a yoga brick in the early stages, and really depends on your overall flexibility and also your confidence in your ability to master certain postures. If you pretty sure feel you can master the moves without a block, then so much better, because this will help you progress faster. If, however, is it too difficult, you will find that the block helps you get on a level where you end up not necessary and can go on with more difficult exercises.
