The Japanese Tea Ceremony and stress management

Article Abstract:

The Japanese Tea Ceremony has much to teach about stress-coping techniques. In the Tea Ceremony, an everyday act becomes a ritual, infusing the mundane with beauty and purpose. It brings peace and tranquility to all participants. All rituals reduce the anxiety of decision making and relieve social tension because all involved know what they are to do. Any action can be transformed in this way by concentrating on the process instead of the goal.

Arbutamine for stress testing

Article Abstract:

Arbutamine has been approved for use during pharmacologic stress testing in patients who cannot exercise. Marketed as GenESA, arbutamine increases oxygen consumption by the heart and simulates exercise by raising the heart rate and blood pressure. The drug is administered by a computer-controlled system to maintain a desired heart rate. The costly drug may be as effective as treadmill-exercise testing in detecting coronary artery disease.
