Reading improves our thinking

interesting topic. Perhaps to add to what has been mentioned, there is also the idea that besides reading, it is when we write that (I think) our brain further "processes" what we have read. An interesting experiment is to read about something specific... and then to write about it ... e.g. as if we were presenting a lecture on it. We realize that our mind is challenged to interconnect the ideas in such as way that new questions arise or we have to reread the source material again for clarity... There's a saying: "To write is to think fully..." , agree? Cheers

You see Mani, as eating good foods is to our body, so also reading good books is to our mind. It enriches our thinking process and our thoughts are further enlighted by our reading activities. Thanks and have a good reading taste!

I have loved to read ever since I knew how to. It is a wonderful way to experience new things through the characters, their actions, and the settings. Many books teach very good life lessons and help us see things through a new perspective. It is still one of my favorite things to do. : )

Reading, especially something of a positive nature, will be very beneficial. When you are reading, you are choosing what to fill your mind with instead of entertaining the automatic, often sabotaging, self chatter that we habitually engage in.
