The Aligned Life Podcast

In 2007 I learned about the Yama's and the Niyama's, which are the first 2 limbs of Patanjali's 8 Limbs of Yoga. I always loved learning about this part of yoga and how the practice of yoga is so much more than the physical postures.
The Yama's are described as social restraints and the Niyamas are self-disciplines. 

There are 5 Yama's
1. Ahimsa (non-violence)
2. Satya (truthfulness)
3. Asteya (non-stealing)
4. Brahmacharya (moderation of the senses)
5. Aparigraha (non-greed)

And 5 Niyama's
1. Saucha (Cleanliness)
2. Santosha (Contentment)
3. Tapas (Self Discipline)
4. Svadhyaya (Self Study)
5. Isvara-pranidhana (Surrender)

And in today's episode we are going to learn more about them and how they apply to life.

Today I am speaking with Rosyln Kent of Plants First Holistic Nutrition.
Roslyn is a Registered Holistic Nutritionist and specializes in Gut Health (check out below for her full bio).
In this episode we talk about her motivation to become a RHN and why she is so passionate about helping women solve their IBS with whole, plant-based foods. We talk about the importance of beans + legumes, whole grains, and vegetables on your gut, and why you DON'T want to eliminate these foods even if you are experiencing discomfort.
Roslyn tells us what the microbiome is and how we can best care for ours. She gives some suggestions around transitioning to a whole foods, plant-based diet, and the strategy she suggests to her clients and so much more!

About Roslyn
Roslyn Kent is a plant based Registered Holistic Nutritionist living in Vancouver, BC. She specializes in the microbiome, gut health and helps active women struggling with IBS and similar gut health imbalances conquer and manage their symptoms through evidence based, plant based nutrition strategies when conventional medicine has failed them.

Roslyn suffered from IBS herself for over 10 years, and despite seeing countless doctors, specialists, nutritionists, naturopaths, dieticians and therapists, she wasn’t give the solutions or the information she needed to tackle her symptoms.

So she took things into her own hands, enrolled in the Natural Nutrition Program at the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition to become a Registered Holistic Nutritionist, and uncovered the ins and outs of what constitutes a healthy microbiome through countless hours of digging through clinical research on her own time.

Today, Roslyn runs her own 12 month program, The Plant Powered Gut Academy, where she works with women struggling with gut health imbalances to empower them to understand their microbiome and why their symptoms are happening, implement nutrition, lifestyle and supplement strategies that are backed by science, restore their relationship with food, and get back to the activities they love, all the while living a plant powered lifestyle.

Taking responsibility for yourself, your life, your results (or lack of results), is not about judgement or blaming yourself. Total responsibility is actually really empowering, because from that place you have an understanding that you can create a different outcome for the future.
Blaming yourself for an outcome that wasn’t what you wanted is the result of a mismanaged mind. Remember, you get to decide what you make things mean.

In the Manage Your Mind Masterclass Series I do a session on excuses and I always get some DM's about this topic. In life we have circumstance, and HOW you respond to those circumstances (and the meaning you give them) is what makes the difference. 

If you are someone who comes up with excuses that is all you will find. If you are determined to find solutions, that is a whole different vibration, and you will see solutions. The vibration of an excuse and the vibration of a solution are two completely different energies. If you want to be a solution orientated person, you need to let go of excuses.

Learn the 5 phrases I suggest you quit saying or telling yourself if you want to live a more empowered, fulfilled life!

I have said or thought all of these in the past, and I know it can be hard to make changes when your thought patterns are ingrained and have become habit, but once you have awareness around why these phrases are NOT helpful, you will notice how it is making you feel negative emotions, and begin to shift into more helpful thoughts + energy.

Some people see self-control as a negative thing, or that there is sacrifice in it, but self-control doesn’t mean “I can’t have what I want” it’s the exact opposite! Self control is exactly HOW you get whatever it is you want!
Keep reminding yourself this, managing your mind + doing the work and your success will be inevitable.

If you describe yourself as a people pleaser you most definitely have poor boundaries and you likely experience some resentment, frustration, or self-pity because there is never time for you or your needs.

Some people put themselves out or people please to *try to* make other people happy but happiness comes from within, not external circumstances, so you will never be able to control someone else's emotions.
