A Weekly Virtual Body Doubling Session
Need a little support getting started on your to-do list? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to do it alone, either.
What’s Body Doubling?
Body doubling is a strategy where people work on tasks alongside others—virtually or in person—to help with focus, motivation, and follow-through.
It’s especially helpful for folks who are neurodivergent, live with chronic pain or fatigue, struggle with executive functioning, or just find it easier to get things done with a little company.
Who is it for?
Anyone! This space is open to all ILRCSF consumers, whether you’re trying to power through a task or just want gentle support while you do your thing.
Use the time to do things like:
- Clean or organize
- Pay bills or fill out paperwork
- Make phone calls
- Make art or write
- Do homework
- Or tackle anything that feels easier with community support
How it works:
Check-in: Share how you’re doing & what you want to work on
Focus Time: We all work quietly on our own tasks
Check-out: Reflect on what you accomplished (or how it felt to try!)
No pressure. Just structure, encouragement, and connection.
RSVP to receive the Zoom link, email Brianna Sendziak at brianna@ilrcsf.org with the following information:
- Your full name
- Your phone number
