Why is social reading important?
Following other readers on your Fable For You feed will help you reap the many benefits of social reading. Professor Josie Billington has spent her whole career studying the connection between reading and mental health. Professor Billington helped pioneer “shared reading,” a social reading technique where groups gather to read a story together. This kind of social reading has been proven to “significantly lower” both depressive and anxious symptoms in readers. “It's a wonderful, inclusive model,” Professor Billington said, speaking at Fable’s Mental Health Awareness event. “People can come together and experience a book in real time.” For centuries, we have been sharing stories around the campfire. It’s one of the simplest forms of entertainment ever invented. Even before smartphones and social media, the benefits of reading together were clear to researchers. Organizations like The Reader, a U.K.-based charity that runs hundreds of reading groups around Europe, have championed social reading as a therapeutic practice. Here are a few benefits of social reading uncovered by recent research:Five ways social reading can change your life
- Enhance your language skills
- Supercharge your critical thinking abilities
- Boost your values of tolerance, inclusion, and respect
- Magnify your intelligence and empathy
- Increase your feelings of fun and engagement
