Puzzles: test your mental agility and always keep it in shape

Puzzles are games that serve to challenge different areas of our brain, keeping it active and in shape. By solving them, we stimulate neuronal connections and promote brain plasticity. Furthermore, in many cases they also serve to exercise our fine motor skills, which sometimes deteriorate over time.

When we talk about puzzles we not only refer to puzzles, but also to Rubik's cubes, mental games and everything that promotes mental agility. In fact, logic games challenge our reasoning and problem-solving skills. Solving puzzles, visual or mental, enhances our abstract and lateral thinking, which keeps us active and with a sharp mind.

Puzzles, or mental games, also help strengthen concentration. By focusing on finding patterns, words or solutions we train selective attention, which is crucial, especially since we live surrounded by distractions. Additionally, these types of games are a fun way to disconnect and relax. Being immersed in challenges releases endorphins and reduces stress.
