ZenBlock: Mindful Website Blocker & Focus Timer

Stop doomscrolling with ZenBlock, a mindful website blocker that uses a 30-second pause to break distraction habits.

Regain your focus with ZenBlock, the website blocker that uses psychology to stop mindless browsing. Whether you need a Pomodoro timer, a site blocker for study, or a tool to manage ADHD distractions, ZenBlock provides the mindful friction you need to stay on task. Most blockers rely on willpower that fades by 2 PM. ZenBlock interrupts the dopamine cycle with a gentle 30-second "Mindful Pause," giving you the control to close the tab before you get sucked into social media. Instead of an aggressive "Access Denied" page, you get a moment to breathe, reflect, and choose focus over cheap dopamine. 🛑 Stop Doomscrolling with Mindful Friction You didn’t plan to waste time; distraction starts automatically. ZenBlock helps you break the "dopamine loop." By adding a smart delay before you visit sites like YouTube, Instagram, or X (Twitter), you regain the executive function to stay productive. ✨ Key Features 🧘 The Mindful Pause (Smart Delay): No jarring error pages.
