- Words from artist Robert Genn on stress-relaxation; Recent research seems to show that a small, but significant group of people need to work because relaxation stresses them out.

They have what psychologists are now calling “relaxation-induced anxiety.” (Good to know there’s a condition I’ll never have to worry about.)
