Life is always full of stress these days. How do you usually do with your stress? Do you know doing housework is helpful in reducing stress?
In fact, doing something like washing clothes may really make people relaxed. "Doing some housework such as folding clothes or cleaning the room is a good way to face our stress without taking any medicine," says Carol Clark, a successful psychologist(心理学家)in New York. She often advises people who are under stress to try doing housework every day. "When washing something," she says, "you can imagine you're washing away some troubles in your life."
Do all the people agree with her? Here are some people's ideas about it.
"Housework is the main reason for the stress in my life," says Linda. "Get me out of doing any housework and then I'll really be relaxed."
Gary is a busy father. "A man pays a psychologist 200 an hour for his problem about stress. However, he is just told to go back home and do some housework. I really don't know who is crazier, the psychologist or the man!" says Gary.
