The Pomodoro timer is a time management tool that breaks your work blocks into 25-minute intervals. with short 5-minute breaks in between. The benefits of using a Pomodoro timer include increased focus, productivity, and motivation. I’ve also talked about this technique in this Free Notion Timesheet To Track Productivity.
While not exactly a widget, the Pomofocus website can be embedded in your Notion workspace to facilitate productive Pomodoro study or work sessions.
I like Pomofocus for the clean UI and flexibility that the timer offers. Simple done well.
LoFi Radio
Another website that can be embedded in your Notion workspace, LoFi Cafe streams Lofi music – perfect for studying, working, or chilling.
Personally, I’m more of a fan of including Spotify on my dashboards, but this is a nice alternative. You can find my guide here on How To Add Spotify To Notion.
