8 REASONS TO ADD “READING” TO YOUR NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS
Well, it’s that time of the year! Time for New Year’s resolutions!
So, of course I want to share the one resolution I have every year: more books reading!
Yes, surprisingly, I don’t want to talk about “books”, but about “reading”. Because before books, came reading. I fell in love with reading waaaay before I fell in love with books. Actually, I love books BECAUSE I love reading. I’m convinced reading makes us better human beings and, consequently, it makes the world a better place. So, I want to share a few reasons why I think “reading” should be on everyone’s New Year’s resolutions:
Reading is a great way to…
- Beat boredom and pass time. Reading is a much more affordable and safer way to getting to know other people and places.
- Acquire knowledge, abilities, skills and, therefore, improve the quality of ours lives.
- Makes us more mindful, emphatic, understanding and kinder.
- Chill out and relax
- Beat the blues since it can help manage stress, anxiety, and even depression.
- Improve cognitive functions like perception, attention, memory, decision making, and language comprehension.
- Improve vocabulary, writing and communication skills.
- Adopt a literary lifestyle, which also has MANY benefits. So many, it needs it’s own post! Coming soon!
