Can I take a nap on New Year's Day?

Usually, you can take a nap on New Year's Day.

According to tradition, only on New Year's Eve, people are not allowed to sleep, and the whole family should get together for dinner and watch the New Year, which means that the New Year is as beautiful as ever. However, there is also a folk saying that it is forbidden to take a nap on New Year's Day, especially during the day, and the whole person will be lazy and have no spirit.

It is said that a nap on New Year's Day will make you lazy for a year. This statement comes from the old saying "No sleeping during the day". The purpose is to persuade everyone not to be lazy in the new year. If they take a nap on New Year's Day, it will affect the fortune of the whole year. Besides, taking a nap during the day during the Chinese New Year means being lazy and unlucky all the year round, because many guests go home to pay New Year greetings during the Chinese New Year, and if they take a nap, they will be abused and impolite to their guests. Moreover, in this rare holiday of Spring Festival, people want to meet their relatives and friends, chat, have a heart-to-heart talk and ask them how they are doing, and so on. Therefore, people can do many more meaningful things with this short nap, provided that we get enough sleep last night, because health is always the first.
