What is body-doubling? ๐Ÿค”

Body-doubling is a way of helping people get things done by working alongside someone else. That other person does not need to help with the task itself; they are simply there with you while you do it. This can make it easier to stay focused, get started, and keep going.

Body-doubling can help with tasks you have been putting off or finding difficult because of distraction, low energy, low motivation, limited capacity, or feeling overwhelmed.

Tasks can be big or small, for example:

  • paying bills ๐Ÿ’ธ

  • replying to emails or messages ๐Ÿ“ง

  • doing laundry or washing up ๐Ÿงบ

  • changing bed sheets ๐Ÿ›๏ธ

  • writing a shopping list ๐Ÿ“„

Accessibility โ™ฟ๏ธ

You can take part in any way that works best for you. Including:

  • Microphone on or off ๐ŸŽค

  • Camera on or off ๐Ÿ“ท

  • Chat is optional ๐Ÿ’ฌ

  • Active participation is welcome ๐Ÿค—

  • Captions are on ๐Ÿ”
