SAO is hosting structured “body doubling” time and space.
Body doubling is a study technique where you work alongside someone to increase focus and help reduce procrastination. The presence of others can enhance cognitive performance and productivity, especially for those who struggle with attention and executive functioning. We provide structured time allotments for studying and wellness breaks (and food, of course).
This is a great opportunity to set study goals, monitor your progress, and enjoy extra productive study time (and snacks).
