Unplug:Floral Pomodoro

Unplug is an app that combines Pomodoro Timer and flower arrangement to help you step away from a busy sedentary lifestyle to regain physical and mental balance. Unplug has a built-in Pomodoro timer or you may customize your focus interval. At the end of each focus interval, you will be reminded to take a break and walk 150 steps within 30 minutes, after that you will get your carefully crafted floral design. With the Pomodoro Technique or the custom focus mode, you may practice balancing focus and break every day and remind yourself to keep away from a sedentary lifestyle. Not only will it increase your productivity, but it will also relieve stress in life! The results of each effort will turn into an exquisite floral design, which can be shared with friends in a personal virtual gallery, allowing the connection of beauty and art to your life, improve your quality of life, and achieve stress relief as well as work-life balance. By establishing a cycle of focus and break, Unplug lets you experience the art of leaving your mind blank, return to inner balance and present your best self! Like floral designs, leaving blanks at the right moment allows beauties to be revealed. What kinds of people are suitable for using the Unplug break reminder to practice the Pomodoro Technique? ■ Perfectionists: People who are too focused at work, remain sedentary for long hours, forget to take a break and get up for a walk, and have health problems due to prolonged tension and inability to relax. ■ Self-demanding people: People who remain sedentary for a long period without getting up, work continuously for more than a few hours, want to complete all tasks at once, and show unclear thinking and diminished productivity as a result of prolonged work hours. ■ People who strive to achieve work-life balance: People who bear work and family responsibilities simultaneously, have stressful life but do not know how to adjust their lifestyle, and need an appropriate break time. ■ People who pursue good taste: People who like beautiful things (i.e. floral arrangement, paintings, handicrafts, exhibitions) and pursue the coexistence of art of living and aesthetics to achieve calmness and work-life balance.
