Top 10 Things To Do On New Years Day Looking for things to do on New Year’s Day? We often spend all of our time planning for New Year’s Eve, but the first day of the new year is just as important. Here are 10 fun and practical New Year’s Day 2015 activities. 1) Watch Football New Year’s Day is a big day for College Football! Check out ESPN for the most up to date schedule. 2) Take a Hot Yoga Class Yoga is well known for it’s healing, cleansing and renewal effects. What better day for cleansing and renewal than on New Year’s Day! Hot Yoga classes are taught in a heated room, with temperatures ranging from 90 degrees to 104 degrees. The heat promotes muscle flexibility and sweating, which helps get the toxins (ex. bottle of champagne on New Year’s Eve) out of your body. 3) Set Personal Goals and New Year’s Resolutions The beginning of a new year is a fresh start and a great time to think about what you want to accomplish in your personal and professional life in 2015. The most common New Year’s resolutions include to: lose weight, exercise more, eat better, stop smoking, spend more time with family and friends, volunteer and save money and/or get out of debt. 4) Host a New Year’s Day Brunch or Open House Invite your friends and family over for a New Year’s Day brunch. Keep it relaxed by using an “open house” format where attendees can come and go as they please. More and more people are staying at home on New Year’s Eve, and would look forward to an event the next day. 5) Re-connect with Friends, Extended Family and Colleagues You can never have too many friends and New Year’s Day is the perfect day of the year to reach out to those who you haven’t spoken to in awhile. We all get so busy, especially around the holidays. Pin It 6) Do Some Expiration Date Cleaning Have you ever prepared a salad, added the dressing, taken a bite and then stopped chewing because you could taste that something was wrong? Then, when you looked at the salad dressing bottle your read that the “best used by” date was from the prior year? We tend to be so busy in our day to day lives, we dont take the time to remove the outdated items. On New Year’s Day, set aside an hour and do some expiration date cleaning. Take a look in your refrigerator door and toss everything with expired dates. Look in your freezer and toss the items that are no longer recognizable and are likely infused with freezer burn. Also, look inside your medicine cabinet and toss the old medications and ointments as well as older make-up items, like mascara, that should be replaced on a regular basis. 7) Go See A New Years Matinee Movie Seeing a newly released movie with family and friends is a New Year’s Day tradition for many. This New Year’s Day you have a choice of many, highly anticipated new releases- to be announced shortly! 8) Put Holiday Decorations Back In Storage There are some home owners who keep their Christmas lights and holiday decorations out for all to see far past New Year’s Day. Most don’t, so what better day for de-holidaydizing (yes, it’s a word) than January 1, 2015? Gather up the red & green, pack up the blue and white, take down the Christmas tree and roll-up the holiday lights. 9) Shop After Christmas - New Year’s Day Sales Many retailers need to move excess holiday inventory and hold fantastic “After Christmas” sales. 10) Do A Whole Lotta Nothing – This one is my personal choice J Get up as late as possible, lounge around in comfy sweatpants and your favorite tee shirt, drink mimosas, down an entire bag of potato chips or plate of home made cookies, order in Chinese Food or Pizza, watch a Law and Order marathon, cuddle etc. etc. etc.
