I made a total of 25 affirmation puzzles (so far). You can use them, too!

🧵 3 Steps:
1. Click on green button in corner to add to your account (it will prompt you to make an account-- new accounts get 30 day free trial, but if you like BookWidgets, I can extend it🤫)
A digital jigsaw puzzle titled "Daily Affirmation" with a blue instruction overlay describing how to solve the puzzle and reflect on the revealed affirmation. A bright pink arrow and text reading "CLICK ON THIS!" point to a green button in the top left corner labeled "Make a copy in my account." The puzzle pieces display a black and white design with incomplete sections.
