Did you know that a dietitian can support every member of your family, at every age?

Feeding infants, toddlers, and children can be particularly challenging, so the support of a dietitian can take some of the pressure off caregivers to ensure children are getting the nutrition they need.

Book an appointment with our Registered Dietitian, Sharon Sun, for you and your little ones!

This year, we're focusing on small healthy habits that we can start any time and build on:

📱 Limit screen time, especially before bed
😴 Prioritize sleep and set a nighttime routine
🏃‍♀️ Move regularly, rather than aiming to "get fit" or "lose weight"
🧠 Cultivate a positive mindset, which can include affirmations or practicing gratitude

There are so many factors that contribute to our overall health and wellness, and the Royal City team is here to support you mentally and physically. Not sure what service is the right fit for you? Give us a call, and our friendly reception staff will help guide you in the right direction.

Many New Year's resolutions are based on all-or-nothing thinking and can often be unrealistic goals, neither of which sets us up for success.

Rather than beating yourself up for not reaching unattainable goals, let's be kinder to ourselves and try some new strategies towards self-improvement.

If you're struggling with negative self-talk, goal-setting, upcoming life transitions, or something else weighing heavily on your mind, make an appointment to speak with our Registered Social Worker, Kailey Toth.

Research shows that resolutions rarely stick. Fortunately, a few changes to the way we set them can increase our chances of creating lasting change.

Thank you to all of our wonderful patients for choosing us to be part of your wellness journey this past year.

When thinking about your New Year's resolution, rather than assessing your shortcomings, be kind to yourself. Afterall, physical and mental well-being starts with positivity and confidence.

Have a wonderful new year, everyone!
