Psychophysiological
Monitoring of Lifestyle
R. Coppola |
Man
has begun to recognize the interdependence of mental processes and
physiological state. A synthesis is proposed of concern for wisdom
in daily living with technological monitoring of the physiological
variables associated with one's lifestyle. This synthesis is aimed
at helping modern man deal with the increasing stress of daily living
by a restructuring of lifestyle as aided by direct feedback concerning
the effects of the environment on physiology. Decent work in biofeedback
and advances in technology suggest that such monitoring is now feasible.
