When you are exhausted, anxious, tired, all-consumed, or feel lazy, the unwelcomed emotion of guilt often creeps in. It creates a quicksand, trapping you, and making you feel as though you should be working harder. But in a world obsessed with work and productivity, I'm Not Lazy, I'm on Energy Saving Mode highlights how resting and 'being lazy' shouldn't be seen as a weakness or a character flaw, but as an important process of recharging.

After years of battling with depression and lethargy, Dancing Snail realised the importance of rest and taking care of our minds when we feel low. On days you don't feel motivated, are going through a slump, or simply feel like doing nothing, this book, written in short-form chapters and charming illustrations, provides you with the antidote we all need and gives you radical permission to take the break you don't feel you deserve.

I'm Not Lazy, I'm on Energy Saving Mode is written and illustrated by Dancing Snail and translated from Korean by Clare Richards.
