This is for you if
Work feels harder than it should
The Flow Recipe is for neurodivergent brains who want work to stop feeling so exhausting — and start feeling good (and dare I even say fun?)
🕔
You wake up dreading going to uni or work, because you know how long the day is going to be💻
You open your computer, but you already feel overwhelmed or bored, and you just can't get started🌪️
Your brain feels fried by 2pm even though it feels like you didn't do much — but now you just have to look productive🚨
You feel most productive when the deadline is close, wishing it could be so much easier to get work done without the pressure🌳
You only get into that deep focus on really good (and rare) days — not knowing how to do it again🪫
You spend all weekend recovering to 19% battery, just to do it all over again on Monday
Getting into the flow state actually isn't that difficult. We just need to support our brain.

The brain behind The Flow Recipe
I created The Flow Recipe because I desperately needed it myself
I was in my final year in uni. Completely burned out, in full depression. Some days I just couldn't see how I was going to graduate my engineering degree. I still had a master's thesis to write, but I couldn't focus for more than 5 minutes and my brain was fried from months of chronic stress.
So I dived into the neuroscience and built myself a new routine to heal my brain and make progress on my thesis. I got into flow every single day and made progress every week:
"Good work, Ida. Keep up the great progress" — my supervisor
I graduated with the highest grade! 🙏
I even got invited to publish my "exceptional work" in a scientific journal! 😳
And my mental health had never been better. I was on fire!
The Flow Recipe is how I got into flow every day — written down into a simple guide, refined over 600+ sessions, and now yours for €16.
