Mindfulness
In our hectic world full of notifications, deadlines and constant stimuli, it is difficult to find peace in our minds. Mindfulness and meditation are often recommended, but not everyone finds it easy to sit still. What if there was a more fun way to organize your thoughts? We have the solution: puzzling is a form of active meditation that helps you stay in the moment and lower your stress levels.
Zen without incense and lotus position
You don’t have to sit cross-legged and listen to a singing bowl to practice mindfulness. Puzzling naturally forces you to focus on one thing. Your brain produces fewer stress hormones and rewards you with dopamine, the happiness hormone that makes you feel calm and content.
Rhythm in your head, peace in your body
Finding and placing puzzle pieces works like a hypnotic flow. You get completely absorbed in the process, your heart rate slows down and your thoughts soften. Studies even show that this kind of repetitive action has an effect similar to breathing exercises in mindfulness. A no-brainer, right?
The victory of the last piece
There’s nothing quite like the satisfaction of that last piece that fits perfectly. It’s pure brain magic : your brain is flooded with a sense of control and accomplishment. Even if the rest of your day was chaotic, at least you’ve sorted that out. It’s like Tadej Pogacar winning the Tour de France with a last-ditch attack: he loves it when a plan comes together!
