Learn to retract your arms as you fall, like you're boxing, or crossed over like you're in a straightjacket. Eat the fall with your body, keep your arms protected.

You can do this really simply just by standing up on a board, stationary, and just falling over. Do it over and over again, and just keep your hands close to your chest and land on your body like you're flopping into bed.

Have someone push you over on your board while your eyes are closed so you can practice fighting the instinct to reach out and stop your fall.

Intentionally catch edges (going slowly, on a green or something) and just eat it over and over again.

Gear helps as well. The number 1 thing that caused me to fall on my wrists was the fear of pain, after I bruised my tailbone. I was just terrified of falling over, I would keep wrecking my wrists and elbows trying to keep my tailbone from hitting the ground.

I got a pair of these https://www.amazon.com/Azzpadz-D30/dp/B00PG44OLQ and now I can sit down hard on a steep blue without even flinching, and just hop right back up without even losing much momentum.

I've broken my tailbone twice and now suffer from chronic pain. Just get the pants you want and then add a seperate tailbone protector. Something like this.

Most was already said, but I would highly recommend the following two items:

https://www.amazon.com/Azzpadz-D30/dp/B00PG44OLQ and
https://www.amazon.com/Flexmeter-Wrist-Guard-Single-Sided/dp/B00BLS3H6Y

I'm an experiencing rider and still use the wrist guards every day (under a size larger mitt than I would wear without) and the Azzpad on any day that isn't powder.

As was already commented -- wrists and tailbones are the most common injuries that will really screw up your learning. Shoulders another weak point but no way to really help that except learning how to fall.
