Relax with Japanese Tea

Japanese green tea is effective also for the relieving of stress in daily life.

It is because a lot of vitamins C are contained in Japanese green tea. When the mind and body is stressed, internal organs called adrenal gland in the inside of the body makes a large amount of adrenal cortex hormone(steroid), increase blood glucose levels, and helps resistance for mind and body to develop. Vitamin C is necessary for synthesizing this adrenal cortex hormone. Therefore, the consumption of vitamin C rises in a stress situation. Vitamin C is readily available for adrenal gland in a stress situation by taking vitamin C usually a lot, so the body becomes strong to stress. 

Moreover, there is an effect of untangling nerves and relaxing also in vitamin E.  So Japanese tea ceremony is very effective in the relaxation, because vitamin E can be taken by drinking Matcha.

Why Japanese Toilets So High-Tech?

From the article in one of the famous social news site Digg, Japanese toilets are introduced as most remarkable high-tech toilet in the world. Many comments posted to this article agree with that, however some people don’t understand why Japanese are so enthusiastic to toilets.

I think that one of the reason is that Japanese people are thinking toilet space is not just for egesting wastes. Living in the society, even though privacy is protected, it is not as robust as toilet space. Maybe toilet is a perfect place to isolate from society instantly to refresh mentally and also physiologically to gain power to go back to society. If this is the truth, I can agree that Japanese people pour passion to make toilet comfortable as possible.

Tea Incense Burner (Cha Kouro)

Have you heard of an item called Tea Incense Burner (Cha Kouro)?

Yesterday, I went to Odaiba. Odaiba is located in bay area of Tokyo, which is famous for dating spot. Ah, don’t ask whether I went there for dating. Odaiba is also a good place for shopping where there are many shops and good to find out cool stuffs.

In one of the shop in Odaiba, I found a good tea incense burner (in Japanese it is called “Cha Kouro”). I knew that there is such thing, but I’ve never tried it. So I purchased one for my home to have a try. Burner is very simple, it has a little tray to put the tea on and a little space underneath the tray to put a candle. The way it works is same as aroma oil burner, but the tray is little more larger and shallow.
