In today's episode, Mia and Adrienne had the chance to chat with Tim Keim. Tim is an IAYT Certified Yoga Therapist, a Clinical Ayurvedic Specialist, a designation he earned from the California College of Ayurveda in 2020.
Ayurveda also played an important role in his Crohn’s cure. To increase his knowledge about herbal medicine, he took a two-year Professional Herbalism program from the International Integrative Educational Institute taught by founder K P Khalsa, former president of the American Herbalist Guild.
In addition to yoga, Tim worked in the radio, television and voice-over industries for 30 years, including 21 years for NPR affiliates KNPR and WUNC. In 2001 Tim was awarded the New York Festival’s World Gold Medal for Best Short documentary for his oral history coverage of the MGM Fire in Las Vegas in 1980.

In today's episode, Adrienne guides you on a walking meditation.
Walking meditations are powerful because they combine the mindfulness of traditional meditation with the physical benefits of movement. By focusing on the sensations of walking—such as the rhythm of your steps, the feeling of your feet on the ground, and the environment around you—you anchor your awareness in the present moment. This practice helps to calm the mind, reduce stress, and improve mental clarity, all while promoting physical health. The rhythmic movement also helps to synchronize body and mind, making it an accessible and grounding form of meditation.This detailed walking meditation can help deepen your mindfulness practice by guiding you to connect with your body, breath, and surroundings more fully. It's a wonderful way to cultivate presence and relaxation while moving.
