Flow Reset

🫧 Flow Reset, a stretch and break reminder for long days at a desk

A free break timer and posture reminder that lives on a single Stream Deck key. If you sit at a computer all day, it reminds you to stand up, move and rest your eyes, then guides you through it: desk stretches for your neck, shoulders, back, hips and wrists, a 20-20-20 style eye break for screen time, and a minute of guided breathing. Seated or standing, at home or in the office, every 20, 30, 45 or 60 minutes.

✅ A soft chime and a "Break time" key when you've been sitting too long ✅ Tap once and the key paces every stretch for you ✅ Free, with no account to make

🧘 What it does

Between breaks the key is a still bubble with a faint ring that fills as the time passes. When a break is due, the bubble swells, a singing bowl chimes, and the key reads Break time.

Tap and it walks you through a short movement break: a far look to rest tired eyes, a few gentle moves for one part of your body, then a minute of slow breathing. Busy? Hold the key and it comes back in 10 minutes.

🤸 Guided moves

Each break works on a different area, rotating through neck, lower back and hips, shoulders, legs, wrists and forearms, eyes, and upper back: the parts that stiffen up after hours of sitting and typing. There are 28 desk exercises and stretches between them, from shoulder rolls to squeeze blinks.

The key shows the move's name and a ring that fills as you go, with one segment per rep on counted moves. A chime marks the start and end of each move, so you can look away from the deck while you stretch.

Every move stays gentle. Skip anything that doesn't feel right.

🌬️ A minute to breathe

The bubble fills as you breathe in and empties as you breathe out. Pick In, pause, out, or Long exhale (in for 4, out for 6), or switch the breathing off.

👆 One key, two gestures

Tap: see when the next break is, then tap again to start one now

Hold: pause for an hour, or hold again to pause until 6 am

During a break, tap to skip a move and hold to end it

On Stream Deck +, + XL and Galleon 100 SD, turn the dial to move the next break 5 minutes at a time

🖥️ On your desktop too

A small bubble sits in the system tray on Windows, or the menu bar on a Mac. When a break is due, a quiet pill drifts into the corner of your screen with Start and Later, and Start brings in a card that guides the break alongside the key. Your typing stays in your own window.

The pill waits while a game or a slideshow has the whole screen. You choose the monitor it appears on, or keep it to the bubble, or switch it off in the key's settings.

The chime plays whatever profile is showing, but you only see the moves where the key is, so put it on each profile you work in. After 7 days with no Flow Reset key on screen, reminders go quiet until one is back
