Struggling to stay focused or beat procrastination? The Pomodoro Timer is a time-tested technique designed to help you stay sharp, productive, and balanced—one 25-minute session at a time.

Invented by Francesco Cirillo in the 1990s, this method breaks your work into short bursts (called “Pomodoros”), followed by regular breaks. It’s named after the tomato-shaped kitchen timer he used in college!

How It Works

Here’s how you can use your customized Pomodoro Timer:

• Choose your focus time – typically 25 minutes, but you can adjust it to fit your energy and goals.

• Take a short break – usually 5 minutes, to reset your mind.

• Repeat – after 4 focus sessions, take a longer break (15–30 minutes) to fully recharge.

• Enhance with white noise – activate calming background sounds to block distractions and stay in flow.

It’s simple, flexible, and easy to stick with whether you're working, studying, or tackling chores.

Here’s some Tips

• Single-task focus: Our brains aren't built for multitasking. The Pomodoro method encourages full attention on one task, reducing mental fatigue.

• Respects your attention span: Most people struggle to focus for long periods. Breaking work into manageable chunks helps you stay productive without burnout.

• White noise keeps you cantered: Soothing ambient sounds help drown out distractions, create a calming environment, and keep your mind engaged.

Each session gives you a boost of momentum. The more you complete, the more motivated you feel.
