dr. Amber Johnston, a clinical psychologist in neuropsychology, said brain teasers help keep our brains active, young and have a positive effect on mental well-being.
She said: “What is well understood about the brain and mental health is that people are strongly driven to learn.
“Anything that offers new challenges and learning opportunities has been found to lead to greater well-being and enjoyment, and studies show that people prefer to choose new and challenging tasks over easy, repetitive tasks, even without a reward for engaging in any.
“Because we are naturally motivated to challenge and learn, brain teasers fit into the fun category of hobbies that can improve our mental health.”
They are generally thought to help us improve our attention span, concentration and overall cognitive abilities.
Picture-within-a-picture puzzles help your brain interpret ambiguity.
This puzzle is especially tricky because of the various subtleties in the picture.
The different colors of corgi hats and crowns, along with the different shades of corgis, offered the perfect camouflage for a corgi-loving queen, since it’s hard for your eyes to focus on one object.
If you need help, try breaking the image into several parts. Then search each section slowly, one at a time.
