Non-sleepy reading technique

Many people have the power to read comics all night, but only when they open a textbook... the brain is like pressing the energy-saving mode button immediately.

This condition is called "textbook lethargy," which is found in almost all students, especially before the exam.

Some people open three pages of books, and they start to develop symptoms, such as:

Yawn every 10 seconds.

Repeat the original sentence 5 times.

And finally fell asleep

But don't worry. There are simple techniques that allow reading without getting too sleepy.

1. Change sitting position

Reading in bed is a very dangerous trap, because the brain thinks

"This is bedtime!"

Let's switch to the table and light it up to keep the brain awake.

2.Read participatory

Don't just read through. Try the method.

Underline key words

Take a short note.

Or draw a diagram.

This will help the brain function more and remember content better.

3. Read briefly

Instead of reading for three hours, let's divide it into intervals like

25 minutes read

Take a 5-minute break.

During the break, it may stretch, walk to drink water, or look out the window.

4. Change place to read

Sometimes reading the same book every day can be boring. Try changing places, for example.

Library

A quiet corner in the house.

Or a new reading desk.

New atmospheres may help the brain feel fresher.

5. Read with friends

Reading books with friends helps not to be boring and can help explain lessons.

But be careful, because sometimes reading with a friend can become talking about something else, 80% reading 20%.

In the end, reading doesn't always have to be stressful. If we find a way to suit ourselves, studying can become more fun than you think.

And more importantly... if you start reading ahead, you don't have to sit all night before the exam!
