Let’s be real: the world’s gotten loud. We’re hit with hundreds of notifications a day, told to “stay consistent” online, and praised for being always-on. But behind the curated grids and constant scrolling, something deeper is happening—burnout, creative fatigue, and a growing craving for quiet. Enter: the digital detox. This isn’t just about deleting Instagram for a day. It’s a full-body, full-mind rebellion against the noise.

Somewhere along the way, “busy” turned into a badge of honour. Hustle culture told us we could rest when we’re dead. Productivity hacks crept into every spare moment. Even self-care became another box to tick. No wonder we’re all running on fumes. That’s where this new movement—something trend forecasters are calling therapeutic laziness—has me nodding along. And before you roll your eyes, hear me out.
