Description

Studies have shown that reading as little as 6 minutes per day can improve your sleep quality, reduce stress, and sharpen mental acuity. In addition, reading strengthens our brain's neural circuits and pathways while lowering heart rate and blood pressure.

 

The ability to empathize and engage with diverse stories outside of our own lived experiences can bring us a greater sense of human connection and empathy. This often leads to stronger relationships and shared understanding.
