you and those other people might not realise is that reading can help lower stress levels.
You read that little fact right, though it seems strange to say. The act of reading and
focusing on the written word can help relieve your mind of anxiety and the pressures of

stress melt away. Furthermore, while reading, your brain immediately transports itself
to a different world with different people. This change in pace can be a breath of fresh
air for someone who is stressed out or suffers from extended periods of stress. By
reading you can allow yourself to take a breath, relax, and be swept away to another
world through the words written on the page. Finally, reading increases your
imagination and creativity and it gives you different ideas and understanding. In
addition, good reader from the young age can become a good writer and when you read
you are taken into the new world, this thing nurtures your brain to develop ideas for new
worlds and other possibilities. Reading exposes you to the world of imagination, shows
you nothing is impossible in this world and shows how different actions lead to different
results. To sum up, reading is important because it develops our thoughts, gives us

all kinds of information, stories, thoughts and feelings unlike anything else in this world.
The importance of a book to help us learn and understand things cannot be

Jobs in one of his famous quotes states the importance of reading. He stated that
reading and learning are so critical to success and a lack of information will keep you
small and limited.
