Answer:

Reading can transport you to all kinds of places, but can books boost mood and banish negativity?

Burying your head in a book can make you a happier person  

Explanation:

A 2008 review of bibliotherapy studies* found that ‘bibliotherapy and associated interventions in the treatment of mental illness is supported by the evidence’ and that it’s particularly effective when used in conjunction with psychotherapy. Two earlier studies**† found bibliotherapy reduces depression.

But what if you’re just reading on the bus or in bed? Experts say this can help, too. Psychologists at the New School for Social Research in New York found that reading fiction can enhance ‘theory of mind’ – the skill of understanding other people’s mental states and navigating complex social relationships. People who are depressed often have low theory of mind (Lee et al, 2005). Research at the University of Liverpool found that readers are 21 per cent less likely to report feelings of depression and 10 per cent more likely to report good self-esteem than non-readers. Researchers at the University of Sussex found that after six minutes of reading, subjects’ stress was reduced by up to 68 per cent. A 2013 survey by the Book Trust said, ‘People who read books regularly are on average more satisfied with life, happier, and more likely to feel the things they do in life are worthwhile.’
