From the findings of a Sussex University study on reading:
"Reading is the best way to relax....[working] better and faster than other methods to calm nerves..." Both the concentration required and the distraction "of being taken into a literary world eases the tensions in muscles and the heart", and as little as six minutes of this can do the trick, apparently.
"[Reading] is more than merely a distraction but an active engaging of the
imagination as the words on the printed page stimulate your creativity
and cause you to enter what is essentially an altered state of
consciousness."
