In a modern, highly fast-paced digital world, instant messaging has become the norm for almost all our interactions. hile it may be very quick and convenient, it often lacks the personal touch and depth that are the hallmarks of written communication.
There is a certain magic in the smooth flow of a pen on quality paper. In fact, studies show that writing by hand engages the senses in a way that typing onto a screen simply cannot match. And almost everyone appreciates the personal and thoughtful nature of handwritten correspondence.
As writing by hand sees a rebirth, it’s valuable to explore the nostalgic charm of handwritten communication and its role in fostering personal expression and purposeful communication.
A Renewed Appreciation for Longhand Writing
Writing notes and letters by hand on beautiful, quality stationery provides a welcome break from the barrage of emails, texts, and social media notifications we are subjected to daily.
In a fast-paced, digital world, taking the time to write by hand reflects a more profound longing for meaningful and authentic communication in each of us.
So, what makes writing by hand extra special?
Handwritten Communication is More Personal
Whether you’re writing a heartfelt thank you note, extending a gracious invitation, or penning a message of encouragement or condolence, the act of writing by hand makes the communication deeply personal and thoughtful.
A handwritten note stands out as a thoughtful gesture that shows the recipient you have taken the time and effort to craft a message just for them.
In a world where almost all communication is instantaneous and inspired by templates, receiving a handwritten note makes the recipient feel special and appreciated.
It Increases Cognitive Development
Did you know that famous writers, like J.K Rowling and James Patterson, always write in longhand?
New research suggests that writing by hand not only enhances cognition and memory but also stimulates connectivity patterns in our brains. A recent study found the levels of electrical activity across a range of interconnected brain regions responsible for memory, movement, vision, and sensory processing to be higher in those writing by hand. Writing by hand positively impacts both learning and memory.
It Enhances Creativity
Writing by hand is a form of art.
From putting thought into the selection of high-quality writing paper and pens to elegant penmanship and careful attention to each word, every aspect of the process enhances creativity.
It Fosters Mindfulness
Our lives today are fast-paced, stressful, and digitally dependent, leaving many of us feeling stretched thin and often disconnected from ourselves.
Writing by hand has been proven significant in helping us be more intentional and mindful. Daily journaling and gratitude journaling, in particular, can help us gain clarity into our inner thoughts and feelings.
The simple act of writing by hand allows one to slow down and engage more deeply with our thoughts and emotions. When combined with the use of fine stationery, the experience is further enriched.
