Silent Reading may be Costing Your Brain Two-Thirds of its Processing Power!

The Telegram account of Don't Speak News posted an amazing video today regarding the health benefits of reading out loud, instead of reading silently.

Trained as a linguist myself, I already knew much of what this video, produced by The Feynman Way, explains, but this video certainly enhanced my knowledge by leaps and bounds after watching it. Here is the YouTube description:

"Discover why silent reading may be costing your brain two-thirds of its processing power — and what just 5 minutes of reading aloud does to memory, comprehension, and cognitive maintenance.

This video explores the production effect, triple memory encoding, and the neuroscience of speech circuits.

Learn why your own voice is a richer signal to your brain than anyone else's, and find out how respiratory-linguistic coupling shifts your autonomic tone toward calm.

Whether you're fascinated by the physics of the brain, curious about what silent reading really costs your memory, or looking for explanations that actually make sense about cognitive decline, this will change how you understand every page you read.

Watch now to see what nobody tells you about how your brain encodes language."

Recently, I have tried to overcome years of propaganda "brainwashing" which teaches that talking out loud while all alone is what "crazy" people do. For me, it is very helpful to speak out loud, and speak directly to God, my heavenly Father, and then when I am speaking out loud and use the first person plural, "we", it helps focus my mind (which is my heart) to understand that I am referring to myself together with God.
