TAKE A TEA CEREMONY
There's something calming about taking off your shoes and donning a kimono for a tea ceremony, though you have to do it properly! At traditional Kyoto teahouse Wakwak-kan, a wander through the garden is encouraged to purify your mind before taking tea. Matcha tea is said to slow ageing, help hangovers and wake you up. When presented with your cup, you should rotate it clockwise twice. After a sip, you're encouraged to take a big slurp at the end - a sure sign you've enjoyed not only the tea but the whole ritual! wakjapan.com/facility_ category/wakwak-kan
