The Best Christmas Gift is Back

Still looking for the perfect Christmas Gift? Last year our “How Not to Give a Bad Christmas Gift” article was so popular that we’ve brought it back again for 2023 along with the Christmas Hot Tub Escapes giveaway. Do yourself a favor and read this article to avoid giving a bad gift this year.

What is the best Newfoundland Christmas Gift for 2023?

With the crispness in the air and frosty mornings, it’s easy to tell the holiday season is almost here. This Christmas, we all have something to be thankful for, especially this year, after so much seems to have transpired globally in such a short period of time. The world has seen a lot of change and development over the last few seasons, and many people are just getting back into their groove. For many of us, this has been a fantastic opportunity to practice how to relax, breathe, and just be.

Newfoundland Christmas Gift: Experience vs. Stuff 

Yes, giving the gift of an experience is still ultra-popular. Christmas Holidays are a time of fun, relaxation, and togetherness, but they also carry the duality of pressure, deadlines, and stress. Did I get them the perfect gift? Is this something they actually wanted? Will this gift be forgotten sooner than the wrapping paper hits the floor? With questions like this squirreling around in your mind, it’s hard not to feel a little pressure to find a meaningful gift, especially when the gift is for someone you feel deeply about.

Sometimes the pressure to give the perfect gift is too much.
Sometimes the pressure to give the perfect gift is too much.

How to avoid giving a bad Christmas Gift and top gift ideas to avoid at all costs

Last year, we heard some unbelievable stories about bad gifts and the ramifications those bad gift-givers suffered. Sometimes, knowing what not to give as a Christmas present is even more important than knowing what to give. In case you missed it, be sure to check out “Christmas Gifts to Avoid Giving in 2022” and “How not to Give a Bad Christmas Gift” articles for the best information on what to avoid. I mean, let’s face it, roses, sweaters, and jewelry are all fine, but this isn’t what they really want.

Why the gift of experience is the best Christmas gift 

In a nutshell, it’s because we remember what we did and how it made us feel, not what we got. If you take a moment to audit your mind and reflect back on the things that matter, motivate, and influence you the most, odds are they’re experiences, not stuff. What you do and what you have are two different things. It’s true, stuff can be a catalyst for great experiences and adventures. What we really want, however, are experiences, and these can’t be bought. They need to be created.

Take a moment to think about what's important to you, and what can get you closer to your goals

Show how much you care by taking the time to give a well-thought-out experience instead of just running out and buying the next shiny object

Giving the gift of an experience can be perspective-shifting. It can be something you share with a partner or a gift to be enjoyed in tranquillity and solitude. Just taking the time to plan the gift of an experience shows you took the time to plan something special instead of buying the next shiny thing. 

Health and Wellness

Give an experience that includes an element of health and wellness. Everyone likes to feel good, so the gift of an experience should be aimed at this.

Self-care is something so few of us incorporate into our regular routine, yet we all intuitively know it’s one of the best things we can do for ourselves. If you know an individual or couple that needs to slow down but doesn’t ever seem to, a retreat experience may be the perfect Christmas present. It’s easy to put off doing something special for yourself, but when someone else plans something special for you, it’s kind of hard to say no.

Christmas is just around the corner, get an early start this year

Timing is everything, and the best experiences sell out early, but that doesn’t mean you have to do without
