To unwind, indulge in some self-care. Treat yourself to a relaxing bath, meditate, or enjoy a good book. Taking time for yourself is essential for overall well-being.

End the day by learning about the fascinating narwhal. Watch a documentary, read articles, or listen to podcasts about these majestic creatures. Share your newfound knowledge with friends and family to spread awareness.
