FLOWN focus sessions are designed to help you stay accountable, make progress, and feel supported, whatever you're working on. Body doubling is an excellent way to stay on track and remain focused while completing a task.
Most members use focus sessions for desk-based work, but you can absolutely use them for non-desk activities too.
✅ Things you can do in a focus session
Focus sessions work for almost any activity that benefits from structure and accountability, including:
Cleaning or tidying – get that housework done!
DIY and home improvement – tackle small projects while staying motivated
Movement and exercise – gentle stretching, yoga, or even a full workout
Hobbies – learning an instrument, sewing, gardening, or other personal projects
Artistic endeavours – painting, pottery, or other creative work
If it’s something you want to focus on, it’s welcome.
❌ Things you shouldn’t do in a focus session
To keep sessions safe and productive for everyone, please avoid:
Taking personal calls – if it’s an emergency, step away or switch your camera off
Purposely distracting others or interrupting the flow of the session
Dressing inappropriately for a public setting
Falling asleep during the session
Using your camera for anything that might make others uncomfortable
🎥 Cameras & comfort
You’re encouraged to keep your camera on if you feel comfortable; it helps build connection and accountability. However, if you’d rather keep your camera off, that’s completely fine too.
Be mindful of your camera’s position if you’re doing anything physical (e.g., cleaning, stretching, exercise) and make sure you’re dressed as you would be to be seen in public.
Your session host may turn your camera off if what’s on screen is distracting for others. This is rarely personal; it’s just to keep the session focused for everyone.
If in doubt...
If you’re ever unsure whether something is appropriate for a focus session, check our Community Guidelines or speak with your session facilitator; they’re there to help.
