How to Retain and Process What You Read 📚 | EP 117

About this episode

Eddy Hood discusses how to effectively retain and process what you read using Julia Cameron's Morning Pages method.

I’ve found that reading a book isn’t enough—you have to wrestle with it. In this episode, I’ll show you how Julia Cameron’s Morning Pages method can help you process what you read so the ideas actually stay with you. I’ll walk through how to use this practice after a reading session and share a book recommendation from Tayari Jones that’s worth reflecting on.
