American content creator Rowan, for example, films himself for an hour every day to try to regain his ability to concentrate, his videos have received hundreds of thousands of views.

American content creator Rowan films himself for an hour every day to try to regain his ability to concentrate, and his videos have received hundreds of thousands of views.

This approach, however, has a paradoxical dimension, since we film ourselves disconnecting, we publish our performance on TikTok and we wait to see how many people will watch it.

Concretely, the sequence involves sitting facing nothing for fifteen minutes or even an hour, without a telephone, without music and without a series on television.

However, there is no proof that an hour spent sitting without doing anything can restore attention or regain concentration in the long term.

This trend responds to a feeling felt by some users of having lost their ability to stay focused.

No phone, no music, no series on TV, just Internet users, sitting, facing nothing, for 15 minutes or even an hour.

Videos on TikTok feature people filming themselves doing nothing.

However, there is no proof that an hour spent sitting without doing anything can restore attention or sustainably regain concentration.

And then the trend remains quite paradoxical: we film ourselves disconnecting, we publish our performance on TikTok and we wait to see how many people will watch it.
