According to Marianna Strongin, Ph.D, a New York-based psychologist, solving a puzzle isn’t just a fun way to fend off boredom when you’re stuck at home — it’s also an effective stress-reducer.
“Right now, people feel like they can’t solve their problems, like they’re stuck,” Strongin says. “Puzzles create an opportunity to solve something, which can calm that anxiety.” Whether you’re hunkering down on a jigsaw by yourself or getting to work on a 1000-piece with your family or housemates, Strongin says this immersive, hands-on activity will help distract both your mind and body from whatever’s weighing on you.
If you need an outlet for all that pent-up energy or you’re hankering for some Friday night plans that don’t involve Netflix, here are the best jigsaw puzzles for life in quarantine, and beyond. With an emphasis on artsy options, all offer the chance to bring a little extra beauty into your life too — something we could all use right about now.
We the people do not consent to mask, social distancing, temperature checks, contact tracing; it is unAmerican, it is unconstitutional, it is a violation of our God given rights and it is an insult to our fallen soldiers who sacrificed their lives for our freedoms.
I never thought there would be a article on jigsaw puzzles. Maybe the Top Selling puzzles? You are really trying to adapt to this pandemic.
