Reading and Your Brain

Happy Friday! 

Are you enjoying the glorious sunshine? Are you reading/learning today? 

Did you know? When you read, your brain is full of stimuli?  

Did you know? Reading reduces stress, improvest your sleep quality, increases your vocabulary and memory and improves your intelligence. Few of us know what exactly is happening in our brains when we are reading. 

Until recently, finding out in real-time what processes take place in your brain while you read was difficult. Thankfully, due to MRI’s and other techniques, neuroscience now allows you to see your brain activity while you are working on a task.

There is a correlation between reading, learning and cognitive performance. Neuroscience has proven that when you read, it causes you to experience more situations and trains the processing of your emotions, making you emotionally smarter. Amazing right?

Do you enjoy reading? Do you read for pleasure and/or for learning? Do you like receiving or giving books? Do you want to receive a book in your exclusive teabox?  lmk 

Your purchases will empower women and support education. Did you know? Investing in women is smart from both an economic and a social perspective. 

Globally speaking:

• Women invest up to 90% of their income in their families and communities
  
• Women make up 70% of the world's poor
  
• Women work two-thirds of the world’s working hours, but only make 10% of the world’s income
  

You are a smart woman. You support yourself, your families and small businesses. 
You can give back and empower women and help them support their families too.
