Reading is probably listed among slow hobbies, as it moves us out of the instant gratification loop. Found this video spoke about much more than just that, to a need to remove ourselves from the constant distractions, and the ability to just say no https://youtu.be/A3wJcF0t0bQ?si=WrU0O4QV79lO3Nq8

β€œLet’s face it… the act of reading is really boring.” Boredom is one of the most valuable teachers in all of life. In fact, I have a day off tomorrow and planning the best way to do bored. Any ideas?

I'm afraid I don't find most reading very boring. ^^ But there's probably a bit of training to start finding more satisfaction and excitement in these slow, less instantly gratifying activities. Boredom exercises... I think there was an exercise where you just put rice grains out in a long row or something. For a looong time. Not sure where I read it but some essay about boredom. It's cheap and easy to try.

I don’t find it boring either. But it made me lol because maybe it is vs shooting aliens in VR or whatever the kids are doing these days. I went for a walk in the Surrey Hills. Also not boring, but the weather was too good not to, so the rice line is earmarked for another time! (Art round here is often me finding ways to make tedium impressive through endurance, so it tracks well.)
