Personal Resilience
Home >> Our Programs >> Personal Resilience
Reading isn’t just a hobby — it’s a proven tool for mental resilience. Research shows that regular reading can have a powerful impact on how we cope, grow, and recover:
Reduces stress by up to 68% — more effective than music or walking
Improves focus and emotional regulation, key traits for bouncing back from adversity
Boosts resilience by exposing readers to new perspectives, challenges, and solutions
Improves sleep and lowers anxiety, especially when done before bed
Helps reduce symptoms of depression, offering comfort, connection, and practical guidance
Sometimes, the right book at the right time can be the first step back to yourself.
