Reading can change your life in many ways. Here are just a few:
1. Opens your mind to new and different ideas, cultures, opportunities and ways of thinking.
2. Expands your vocabulary (you may not use all those fancy new words, but at least you'll know them).
3. Helps improve your focus and concentration (the exact opposite effect of all those 7-15 second videos - you know what I'm talking about 😉).
4. Can help build up your empathy and understanding of other people and their circumstances.
5. Promotes healthy sleep (unless you're reading horror novels or extremely sad stories - them maybe not).
6. Reduces stress levels and increases relaxation.
If you're not reading every day, maybe now is a good time to start. A few minutes goes a long way and you can build up over time.
Happy reading!
