The holistic pediatric practice provided parents with clear, practical strategies to promote family wellness during the return to school.
TORONTO, ON, October 23, 2025 — The return to the classroom often brings a wave of stress for families. This year, Reset Pediatric Lifestyle Medicine met that challenge head-on. Their recent “Back to School Webinar Series,” a five-night event that wrapped up this September, delivered a powerful dose of practical guidance to parents navigating the seasonal scramble. The series, expertly guided by founder and Lifestyle Medicine Pediatrician Dr. Rikin Patel, saw strong attendance and positive reviews, underscoring a deep need for this kind of holistic family support.
Each session excelled at turning complex health concepts into usable, everyday strategies. Parents gained concrete tools for managing everything from first-day anxiety to building a better lunchbox, replacing their overwhelm with genuine confidence.
“Back-to-school shouldn’t feel like a crisis to survive,” says Dr. Patel. “We see it as a natural reset-a perfect window to establish healthy habits that fuel a child’s entire year, academically and emotionally. Getting these practical tools into parents’ hands was exactly why we created this series.”
The series provided a week of specialized guidance, with each night focusing on a critical pillar of child wellness:
- Parenting Coach Julie Romanowski helped families decode school anxiety and meltdowns, transforming how parents interpret their child’s behavior.
- Registered Dietitian Lauren McNeill turned a perplexing lunch prep into a simple task, fielding live questions on balanced meals and winning over even the pickiest eaters.
- Yoga Therapist Shehla Khan equipped children with powerful, breath-based tools to quiet anxiety.
- Wellness Coach Alisha Morgan demonstrated how tiny, consistent habits can forge lasting school-year rhythms.
- Sleep Coach Eva Klein delivered a clear, actionable plan to conquer bedtime resistance and reclaim restful nights.
Participating parents left glowing feedback. The sessions secured an impressive 4.5 out of 5 average rating in surveys, with many noting the engaging style of the experts and the directly applicable content as major highlights.
“I’ve read many books about managing transitions for children, but hearing directly from these experts was a game-changer,” shared one participating parent. “The dietitian’s ‘lunchbox method’ took the guesswork out of my mornings, and the mindfulness techniques from Shehla Khan have become a part of our entire family’s evening wind-down. It wasn’t just theoretical knowledge; it was a toolkit we could start using the very next day.”
Beyond the live interaction, attendees received a suite of free resources to extend the learning, including a visual “Anatomy of a Healthy Lunchbox” guide, printable habit trackers, and calming emotion wheels designed for children.
