If you’re neurodivergent - whether you’re autistic, have ADHD, or anything else that affects focus and motivation - this experience can be all too familiar.

Thankfully, your life is about to get a boost that’ll rival your first ever dose of ADHD medication, because body doubling is the new hack that’s going to absolutely blow your mind!

Body doubling might sound like a fancy term, but it’s really quite simple. In a nutshell, it involves working on a task while someone else is present with you.

This ‘body double’ doesn’t need to help with the actual task - the act of just having them there, whether in person or virtually, can make a huge difference to your own ability to stay focused. It’s like having a supportive companion who helps keep you motivated and stay on task!

Imagine you need to tackle a project, respond to emails, or fill out some forms, but you just can’t seem to get started. A body double can provide the nudge you need to begin tackling your overdue to-do list. Their presence creates a sense of accountability, which can make it easier to start and complete tasks.

Boosts Focus and Productivity
For many neurodivergent folks, maintaining focus can be a major challenge. When someone else is working alongside you, even virtually, it reduces the likelihood of getting distracted and helps you stay on task. In this sense, a body double can help you concentrate better!

Makes Tasks More Manageable
Some tasks can seem overwhelming, especially when you’re dealing with them alone. With a body double by your side, it becomes much easier to break down big tasks into smaller, more manageable steps. When you’re not facing a huge project on your own, and you’ve got someone helping you take it one step at a time, things become a lot less daunting.

Provides Motivation and Accountability
Sometimes, just knowing that someone else is present can be a powerful motivator. Whether you’re working on a report, or tackling a lengthy to-do list, having a body double can help keep you accountable and encourage you to push through to completion.

Reduces Feelings of Isolation
Working solo can sometimes feel lonely, especially when you’re struggling with a tough task. Body doubling can offer someone a bit of much-needed company, even if it’s just through a video call. This small change can make tasks feel less isolating and more manageable!

How Stardust Support Services Uses Body Doubling

At Stardust Support Services, body doubling has become a popular service among our clients - and it’s no surprise!

Many people find it so beneficial they book regular body doubling sessions every week. These sessions help our clients switch into ‘productive mode’, making it easier to focus and manage their to-do lists.

We offer this in a number of ways – usually via Google Meet with our cameras on and mics off, or cameras and mics both turned off, or we can do it over the phone. Whatever you’re comfortable with and depending on how you’re feeling on the day.

A typical session with us starts with setting a goal. You can either give us something to do, like a research task or unsubscribing to some pesky marketing emails while you work on your own projects. Or you might prefer to chat throughout the session while we work on things together. Or we can just be there on the other end for moral support and accountability.
