The Habit of Reading makes a Complete Man

‘Reading makes a whole man,’ says the famous English philosopher Sir Francis Bacon.

By studying, they can gain knowledge on any topic they want. In particular, our imagination is enhanced by reading. So we can make good decisions and succeed in life by thinking ability to overcome the challenges we face in life. It helps one to think, see, and think strangely. It cultivates imagination, enriches oneself, and enriches virtues that benefit others.

So reading a book to the extent that a picture or a journey affects us at a young age can affect us and improve our thoughts. Reading in a book will increase your imagination than as you watch the movie. When we read other people’s books we can know how they approach that problem from their point of view. So our mind expands and our efficiency increases.

When we read our favorite book, our mind gets more involved in it without any effort. This is what helps us develop mental integrity. What we call meditation here also happens. Our mind is also corrected through meditation. When the mind is adjusted, as well as our body too.

When reading a favorite book, automatically enhances your brain capacity. Neuroscientists also say that book reading activates brain cells and causes changes in certain areas of the brain. It improves our cognitive intelligence. The habit of reading a book regularly will improve our lives. A report from

Emory University in 2013 stated that reading novels such as Robert Harris's 2003 novel Pompeii significantly changed parts of the brain in a matter of days.

Activate the Senses

In a 2006 study by Neuroimage, it was discovered that deeply embedded words have the potential to evoke senses. For example, when you say strawberry you have thoughts about that fruit. Its taste, color, etc. will be remembered.

Research shows that the same process happens in the brain when you eat strawberries as well as you read about the strawberry.

The study notes that if the written material is in emotional language,

"our brain makes no difference to our experience of an object and its reading; in each case, the same neurological areas are triggered,"

Annie Murphy Paul once wrote in The New York Times.

Good Thinking improves

Can you believe that reading a book cultivates in us sacrificial thinking and compassion? This indicates that a book helps to think from the point of view of others. It also develops emotional intelligence. Reading helps to separate one from oneself and to change things quickly from a third-party perspective.

Improves morale

Intensive reading improves children's reading ability. Based on the above finding, reading could even be used as a new method to deal with mental disorders.

Effects of Reading Books

Different books have different purposes and different effects on different minds. An experiment conducted on 1000 participants by psychologists Emanuel Costa and David Comer Kid proved the truth. Participants were given an excerpt to read from approximate fiction or other genres. It also shows that those who read parts of fiction show more brain activity than those who read other genres.

These are just some of the benefits of reading.

I am sharing with you what I read. So read good books.

Enjoy Reading!

Thank You.
