Intentions Today for Kick-Starting 2021 
Largely, we were happy to wish 2020 goodbye, a year that brought us unprecedented change and disruption! But, what if 2020 DID bring us gifts and silver-linings? What if this was a year of unprecedented change that turned out to be a positive turning point for society and for us personally?
I invite you to take the time to reflect on the lessons, the teachings, the hidden gifts and blessings that 2020 brought you, despite or perhaps because of the pandemic. Maybe it was the gift of slowing down, having quality time with the ones you love or maybe a newly discovered hobby.
For 2021, rather than making resolutions, I ask you to consider instead welcoming 2021 with Intentions!
Deepak Chopra said, “intentions are the starting point of every dream—the seed of creation.”  <https://hopespring.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=245009009133a608181d89b73&id=546011262e&e=ece80c31c3> Read on

Contact us to know more! You may have questions such as "what happens after treatment stops?" "How to build and locate your community supports during your journey?" This program intends to aid our members with information surrounding support for your journey.

Peer support program aims to support anyone who is affected by cancer. It will offer an important service in helping members feel connected to their communities and assist in reducing the effects of loneliness and social isolation.

When You Should See a Community Dietitian?
Cancer and cancer treatment can affect your appetite (when you do not have a feeling of hunger or interest in food). You may also have questions about what you should eat.
Talk to your health care team about any trouble you have eating (e.g. upset stomach, trouble swallowing) or if it becomes harder to eat.

A Registered Dietitian has training in food and nutrition. A Registered Dietitian will work with you to make a plan that fits your goals and lifestyle.
