Got a beautiful Persian shield plant a few weeks ago! It has been thriving so far, but yesterday a few leaves started to turn yellow (pic attached). Any advice?

My friend sent me this awesome book (the author also has a blog) about plant care I was just reading last night about how this could be attributed to the amount of light a new to you plant is getting relative to the amount of water it’s receiving but doesn’t seem to be a cause for worry but rather it’s just the plant adjusting to its new environment….?
