Hello, I’m Dr Rita Behl , An Ayurvedic Doctor, Registered Dietitian, Certified Yoga Instructor and a passionate Holistic Nutrition Diploma Instructor at Kootenay Columbia College.
Teaching is not just my profession, it’s my calling. I thrive on sharing my knowledge and inspiring students to embrace the transformative power of nutrition.
What I love most is seeing my students grow, not just academically, but in their understanding of how holistic health can enrich their lives and the lives of others.
A little about me: I believe in balance—mind, body, and spirit—and I strive to live this philosophy daily.
My advice to you? Stay curious, ask questions, and remember that small, consistent changes can lead to profound, lifelong wellness.
Let’s embark on this journey together!
