Body Doubling

submitted a month ago by TerraRoot@sh.itjust.works

Last week i was chatting away to my counsellor, and we came up with a novel idea, body doubling works for most of us to get stuff done, makes it easier to get up and start when others are doing a thing.

For me it also works the other way, if everyone else is sitting down, watching TV and winding down, i find it *really* hard to get up and do the things i'd rather do, like near impossible.

Anyone else notice anything similar?
