Generally I observed a very likely connection between reading and living a long life. We know Phil Fisher died at age 96 years. Charlie is at 99 now…Warren Buffet at 93 age… Can this be a co-incidence only that most avid readers are living long life?
When you are reading books for most hours of the day, you feel really relaxed and you are saved from the ups and downs of most stressful situations during the day. May be you are not subjected to the emotional upheaval and your breathing is very slow paced and relaxed. You tend to take slow and deep breaths. And we already know the connection between slow and deep breathing and longevity. So reading habit must be adding many years to your life. More research needs to be done in this direction to quantify the exact impact. But my gut feeling tells me that this must be connected. If there is any book in this regard, pls recommend me. Reading habit and longevity.
