Registration for the Library’s Winter Wellness Book Club, beginning in February 2022, is now open. Reading for ‘fun’ has so many positive effects on our physical and emotional health, from better sleep to increased empathy for others. This term, we will be reading Dr. John Ratey’s 2008 book Spark: The Revolutionary new Science of Exercise and the Brain (watch his TEDx talk).
Ratey’s book teaches us all about the benefits of exercise for all aspects of brain health, using stories and science to promote physical activity. In this Book Club we will be getting the positive effects of reading PLUS learning all about how exercise can reduce your stress and boost your brain fitness!
The Book Club will be hosted by Liaison Librarian (and Fitness Instructor!), Justine Cotton, who is passionate about sharing the life-changing benefits of exercise and reading. You can contact her with any questions at jcotton@brocku.ca
