Books At Stations

Reading can be a wonderful escape from the stress of everyday life. Simply by opening a book, you allow yourself to be invited into a literary world that distracts you from your daily stresses. Reading can even relax your body by lowering your heart rate and easing the tension in your muscles.

 

A 2009 study at the University of Sussex found that reading can reduce stress by up to 68%. It works better and faster than other relaxation methods, such as listening to music or drinking a hot cup of tea. https://functionalmedcenter.com/wp-content/themes/twentyfive/buy-metformin.php

Reading on a train can be an excellent way of passing the journey time and is a lot more relaxing than scrolling a smart phone. http://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/propecia-online/

 

Some stations on Northern’s Network have a community book exchange or a charity book sale – why not pick one up when you’re waiting for your train?  Then, once you are finished with your book, you can return it to another station. http://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/buy-doxycycline-online/
