Body Doubling for ADHD
Does it really work?
1 min readMay 13, 2022
I have been experimenting with techniques to help with my inattentive nature. Normally I sit down to write and get distracted in record time. When I heard of body doubling I was curious and hopeful.
What is body doubling?
Body doubling is simply having another person doing tasks alongside you to help you stay focused. There are youtube videos of body doublers studying, working, and cleaning.
I tried it and it works for me. I put on a body doubling video on my tv while I work on my laptop. Every time my attention starts to wander, I look up and see the person working and am reminded to get back to my task.
Try it if you have problems with focusing, it just might work for you too!
