The simplicity of jigsaws are deceiving. Although the idea is simple however, you must find the pieces and put them together. However, it takes lots of mental effort to complete the puzzle. Psychological research has revealed various mental processes required to undertake what is in fact a complex task of identifying patterns and images and relating them to a general pattern. Furthermore, solving jigsaws puzzles are a good exercise for your brain and provide beneficial therapeutic benefits. These include:

Problem Solving Skills
The process of resolving the shapes and patterns that make up the whole picture, and including the rotation of the pieces, is a sign of the fundamental problem solving evolution has equipped us with to tackle on the subconscious level. Our ancestors relied on the ability to detect shapes and patterns in world surrounding them and identify potential predators and hazards as the key to survival. Completing a jigsaw puzzle taps into the same fundamental processes, however in a safe and controlled setting.

Improves self-evaluation
Examining how pieces fit and re-assessing where they might go when they don't fit is a good exercise in making sure you are re-evaluating and reviewing your the options. Each piece can only be placed in one location therefore there is no need for the trading and compromise that occurs in many other areas of life. This requires the player to continually reevaluate their choices and encourages patience.

Enhances Learning Skills
Anyone who plays jigsaw puzzles more often is more adept at recognizing the shape, form and colour faster. This is a basic learning system that can be transferred to other aspects of their lives. In essence, the brain functions like a muscle, and the more it is used, the stronger it becomes.

It enhances perception overall and comprehension
Making an entire image from fragmented pieces even when only a small portion of it is in place is a talent that can be applied to many areas of life. Often, only a certain amount of information about a situation is available. Being able to make judgements and draw conclusions is an essential method of dealing with the environment around us.

Fulfillment
Life in the modern age can seem a blur of activity, where we move from one activity after another without stopping to take a deep breath. Puzzles like jigsaws are an enjoyable way to relax from this busy pace. It allows you to solve a few puzzles and then enjoy the satisfaction of completing the puzzle. This helps reduce stress and creates the feeling of being well-being.

Treatment for Dementia
Dementia sufferers are afflicted by a condition in which brain tissue is degrading and functions are lost. The brain gets plenty of exercise from all of these that can make it more active. This type of mental exercise reduces the risk of dementia because it keeps more parts of the brain active for longer.

This level of cognitive complexity does much to explain why so many people are happy to spend hours at a time working on jigsaw puzzle. While it might seem easy, this activity can be an enjoyable and stimulating brain exercise that has many beneficial benefits. Puzzles that are online as well as physical puzzles are fantastic activity for children as well as adults.
