"Reading aloud" is a solo language brain training!
As you get older, do you find yourself forgetting things more often, having trouble understanding conversations, or struggling to express your feelings in words?
You might be too used to relying on smartphones and the internet, reducing opportunities to think for yourself and put things into words.
For such times, we recommend reading aloud.
Even alone, you can simultaneously activate three language centers: "seeing, speaking, and listening"!
① [Silent Reading] Following written text with your eyes activates the "visual language center."
② [Reading Aloud & Speed Reading] Speaking aloud activates the "motor language center."
③ [Recitation] Simultaneously listening to your own voice activates the "auditory language center."
From "One Story a Day Brain Training by Reading Aloud [Nostalgic Folk Tales and Fairy Tales]"
Approved by care managers who know the field. A book filled with columns.
