16 Best Things to Do on New Year's Day to Usher in 2023
These creative ideas will help you start the new year right.
Once the busy holiday season coming to a close, it's tempting to spend New Year's Day horizontal on the couch in your most comfortable pajamas, doing a whole lot of nothing. After a whirlwind month of celebrations with family and friends (not to mention a potentially late New Year's Eve night), doing nothing might be exactly what you think you need.
That being said, New Year's Day also feels like the perfect time to begin new, healthy habits, whether it's stepping outside for fresh air and exercise, writing down those resolutions, picking up a book you've been meaning to read, or going to a grocery store open on New Year's Day to shop for some nutritious meal options. Been meaning to organize your closet? The new year is an ideal time to clean out your bedroom closet, put those linen closet organization ideas to work, and take stock of what's in your kitchen pantry. If you're looking for a calmer way to welcome the new year, go for some "me time" with a long soak in the tub or plan a New Year's movie marathon with the fam. These newly created events might just turn into new year's traditions for years to come.
However you choose to spend January 1, the good news is that it's a new year (yay!) with endless opportunities for new beginnings. Happy new year!
