Just got back into the gym again and want to incorporate yoga. I find that it relaxes me and I think it could help me with my lifts. I'm just not sure when to incorporate it.

Either do yoga vs. weightlifting on different days, or do yoga after. You don't want to do static stretching before weight lifting, just dynamic stretching. But yoga (or any form of dynamic stretching) after weightlifting does feel nice.
