“Reading opens a window to the world; giving us a vision of things we never dreamed possible.”
Reading for fun has become like a long-lost luxury, especially in this busy age of 24/7. Relaxation and ‘luxury’ activities are often met with the guilt that we should be doing something worthwhile and productive…not indulging and pampering ourselves.
One survey found that nearly a third of adults across our country didn’t read a single book for pleasure in the past year. The discouraging figure puts Canadians behind the U.S., where an identical poll showed 27 per cent of Americans hadn’t picked up a book.
Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!
Here are today’s Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Reading Is Fun-damental Week:
Reading can transport us to another time or place. It stimulates the right side of our brain and can engage our imagination and strengthen our creativity. It can expand our understanding of other cultures, help us to find new ways to express our ideas, and expand our vocabulary.
Reading forces us to be still and slow down when we are used to running on high-speed.
Reading can stimulate our emotions and give us an appropriate way to vent out our frustrations, sadness and joy.
I have a very hard time limiting my time when I get a really good book. I have been known to read an entire day (or night) away, just because I couldn’t put the book down. Generally I only start a good book when I am truly able to ignore the phones and my work, like while I am on vacation.
If you like the tips in this briefing, please leave me a review on amazon or in your #alexa app.
