Reading… ah what a great adventure. I know what you’re
thinking. “It’s just a book, you don’t actually go anywhere”. I know, I know.
But books are some of the most wonderful things that we as humans have created.
“Why?” you may ask. Because they spark our imaginations!
When we read we work out our brains and get them really
thinking. Its like a work out for your mind. Imagine books as weights for your
brain. By stimulating the muscles in our brains when we read and use our
imaginations, we are actually adding to the capability of our brains and
enlarging our brain’s potential. This is the reason why smart people are also
referred to as “well read”.
Scientific studies have also proven that reading before bed
gives your brain such a nice little work out that it makes it easier to fall asleep.
Imagine how you feel after a good workout and that nice rest afterwards. That’s
what it’s like for your mind. So if you have trouble sleeping, I would definitely
recommend picking up a book and making it a before bedtime ritual.
In short, we bibliophiles do not just live one simple life,
we indeed live many through the books we read. Every chapter is the next step
forward. Every character is a new persona. Every book is a new adventure!
