Many people ask: at what time is it more beneficial to read a book? Scientific studies show that human memory and the ability to concentrate are higher at certain hours of the day.
Reading in the morning — 06:00 – 08:00 — After waking up, the brain is in a “clean slate” state. This is the best time to absorb new information and concentrate.
After waking up, your brain is alert, and memory is strong. Morning reading helps to memorize information faster.
Reading during the day — 10:00 – 12:00 — At this time, the flow of oxygen and energy in the brain is most active. This is the perfect moment for quickly understanding and consolidating what you read.
Reading during the day is convenient for fast reading and comprehension, especially during learning. But surroundings may cause distractions.
Reading in the evening — 20:00 – 22:00 — The time before sleep. The information read at this time is consolidated in memory during sleep.
The information read before sleep is consolidated in memory. But reading too late and in a tired state may be ineffective.
What times should be avoided?
- 13:00 – 15:00 — The body slows down a little, drowsiness increases. At this time, reading a book is more difficult.
- After 23:00 — Because of fatigue, the information is not well remembered.
The most effective times to read books are in the morning 6–8, during the day 10–12, and in the evening 20–22. At these hours, information is best absorbed by the brain.
