Life is often busy and tiring these days. How do you usually feel better when you are tired or worried? Do you know that doing housework can help? In fact, doing something like washing clothes or cleaning your room can really help you relax.
“Doing housework like folding clothes or sweeping the floor is a good way to feel better without taking medicine,” says Carol Clark, a doctor who helps people with their feelings. She tells people who feel tired or worried to try doing housework. “While you wash something,” she says, “you can think you are washing away your worries.”
But do people all think the same? Here are some other ideas. “My housework makes me more tired,” says Linda. “If I don’t do it, I will feel relaxed.” “A man pays a doctor 200 an hour to talk about his worries. But the doctor tells him to go home and do housework. That sounds strange to me,” says Gary, a father from America.
