Ø Do meditation. This help you lead a health emotional life. And improve your focus.
Eyes :
Imagine there is beautiful scene in front of you, then you take out your camera and do some settings for capture that scene effectively. As same as we tune them for reading.
Ø Use your central vision for reading the book (keep your eyes focus on the words in the middle).
Ø Use your peripheral vision for reading words in the sides of the pages.
Ø Track your hand / pointer. Our eyes are not able to move smoothly without a tracking object. So use your hands or pointer (pen) to track the lines.
BRAIN :
Here is the real struggle has arrived, if you are master above tips. You can able to read faster. But you cannot understand what your reading. So we need training for our brain. Reading is a high energy required task.
