📚The Benefits of Reading📚

Did you know that reading can enrich your life in many diffrent ways?

Researchers have discovered that people who read books regularly, gradually develop large vocabularies and increased reading speed. Vocabulary size can influence many areas of your academic, professonal, and personal life.

People who read literary fiction that explore the inner lives of characters presented the ability to understand people emotions and personal beliefs better than someone who is a non-reader. Scientists call this the “theory of the mind” which plays an important role building and maintaining social relationships with others.

Scientists discovered while doing MRI scans of participants who actively read that reading involves a complex network of circuits and signals in the brain. As your reading ability matures, those networks also get stronger and more sophisticated.These network of circuits that form in the brain is equivalent to exercising our brain. When we exercise our brain it becomes stronger and paves the way to help us gain other benefits such as retention, concentration, creativity and lower risk of developing dementia and Alzheimer's.
