What is a Pomodoro Timer?

A Pomodoro timer allows you to visualize and track your Pomodoro sequence. A Pomodoro sequence is typically a 25 minute uninterrupted focus time followed by a short 5 minute break, then a long 15 – 30 minute break is taken after 4 work intervals.

So the typical Pomodoro sequence is:

Focus > Short break > Focus > Short break > Focus > Short break > Focus > Long break > Focus >Short break (and so on)

However you can customize the intervals and focus time to meet your focus needs.

What is the Pomodoro Method?

Back in the 1980s, a university student named Francesco Cirillo was struggling to stay focused on his studies. Using his tomato-shaped kitchen timer (pomodoro means tomato in Italian), he came up with a brilliantly simple idea: work intensely for 25 minutes, then take a short break.

Here’s how it works: you focus completely on a task for 25 minutes (no checking your phone or scrolling social media!), then reward yourself with a 5-minute break. After four of these cycles, you get to take a longer break of 15-30 minutes.

What makes this method so effective is that it works with your brain’s natural rhythm. Think about it – trying to focus for hours straight is like trying to sprint a marathon. Instead, the Pomodoro Technique gives your brain manageable sprints with recovery periods, helping you stay sharp and productive throughout the day. Plus, knowing you only have to focus for 25 minutes makes getting started way less intimidating.
