What Doodles say about you

Reader's Digest, July 2006

Doodling can actually help to relieve stress and it can also reflect what one is thinking. I am surprised to find out that doodling is not just mere, nonsense drawing that one does when he or she is bored. I am glad to hear that it relieves stress as i do doodle on my books too. Whenever i feel bored or sleepy in class, i usually doodle as i find it fun and relaxing. And often after doodling for a few minutes, i feel much more refreshed and able to concentrate better in class. I guess that few minutes of doodling helps to relax your mind from the strenous lessons that we sit through for long hours each day. I believe that a little doodling is good for one's self but too much is harmful as it distracts you from whatever you were doing previously. Therefore as always, we must learn to do things in moderation.
