photos on Instagram? These days, it has gotten harder and harder to focus on one task without taking social media breaks or constantly multi-tasking. This can cause us to feel stressed, overwhelmed, and downright exhausted. Reading is a great way to focus on one thing. Doing this for fifteen to twenty minutes at a time can reduce your stress levels and improve your ability to focus the rest of the day. Give it a try and see what happens!

There are plenty of advantages to reading. Not only is it good for the brain, but it is good for the soul. Over the last couple of weeks, I have been reading, reading, and reading some more. It has helped me balance my stress levels, improve my writing, and generally, be a happier person. Here is to a year full of literature!
Do you plan to read more this year?
