The influence of books on the mood and well-being of a person is undeniable. Books are like a balm for a soul. On June 24, 2023, a lecture on the comforting power of books was held at the National Library of Armenia.  
Neuroscientist Vahram Sargsyan spoke about how reading affects human health. He noted that the power of writing is great in overcoming depression and anxiety, that bibliotherapy uses both non-fiction and thematic books, as well as fiction. Some bibliotherapists turn to ready-made literature, others use original methods. 

 

The speaker touched upon various aspects of accounting and active longevity. Long-lived Aida Tadevosyan, a doctor by profession, also expressed her point of view, emphasizing that a positive attitude and love for life are extremely important for longevity, helping to feel good and stay young.
