something unlocked in me when I started getting into audiobooks! I put them on while I drive, fold laundry, cook, etc and now I can’t stop - my favorites recently have been nonfiction/related to current events so in a way it feels very much like a podcast substitute but with a longer runtime. I’d recommend to anyone who’s been struggling with attention/trying to make it through a physical book, it’s like an easier alternative to sitting still that still allows you to grow your brain/expand those reading comprehension skills! Libby has free audiobooks with a library card, Spotify premium also includes certain audiobooks and there are plenty of other resources online
a good audiobook and a hands on task is a refreshing way to spend your spare time. i was so absorbed in my little bubble i hardly even noticed how much time had passed! a great screen-free activity with a cute reward!
