There are different possible leisure activities that enrich the personal agenda of a human being.
Reading is one of the most positive habits not only because it is an entertaining plan but, from a personal point of view, it adds great benefits: increased creativity, allows to keep the mind active, produces positive feelings and pleasant emotions, A good book brings a sense of company, which is why it is a brake on loneliness. Reading also makes it possible to enrich vocabulary, improve the use of language and improve written expression (to write well, reading is also important).
A guide who leads the discussion group around a particular book
In this sense, it should be pointed out that despite those who may think those who link reading with an individual plan, more and more cultural activities are organized around a book: a workshop is a group course directed by a teacher who is the one who guides the readings (that is, makes the book proposals, leads the sessions through comments and questions that encourage participation by the whole group).
Workshop characteristics
In a meeting that can have a biweekly or monthly session, all the members of the same read the same title with the aim of being able to put the impressions on said reading in common. In this way, each reader not only enriches himself from his own subjective interpretation of the reading, but also enriches himself from the contributions made by the different members of the group.
Also, it is a fantastic occasion to deepen adequately in the understanding of a text since the teacher, as an expert in literature, can adequately resolve the doubts of those attending this workshop.
A social plan as well as a cultural activity
A reading workshop is a literary activity, however, it should be pointed out that there are specific groups in certain areas in particular: for example, in poetry or novels. This cultural plan can be convened by training centers in cities and towns.
From an emotional point of view, it should be pointed out that participating in a cultural space is also a fantastic opportunity to meet new friends and find people with whom to share a common hobby.
