Now that technology is so advanced, we make very little time to sit down and read a book like before. We play games, check emails, chat, Facebook, Instagram. The list is endless! But don't let technology take the place of a book! Make time to read, read, read because there are so many benefits. It's exercise for our brains! There is a popular saying, "Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body."
Here are some more reasons why reading is so important:
Increases your vocabulary
Improves writing skills
Exercises your brain
Fights off Alzheimer's disease (read here)
Reduces stress
Learn new things
Increases attention span
Helps you sleep better (Read here)
Allows you to use your imagination
Makes you more empathetic (read here)
Today, sit down and read something, even if it's in your own language. Your brain will thank you. And if you have children, remember to teach them the importance of reading a physical book, not on the I-Pad! The good thing is if your kid drops a book on the floor, it won't cause too much damage ;-)
What is your favorite book in this world? Why do you like it so much?
