How are you doing? Itโs freakinโ Hot ๐ฅต Are you able to keep your cool through the long, hot days?
I admit that I'm struggling with the heat more than usual this summer. Here's what I've been doing to cope. I hope some of these work for you too.
๐ Drink more cool water. Add lemon, lime or cucumber slices for added refreshment. I'm consuming 1 to 1.5 gallons daily and feeling better with it.
๐ Wear long sleeves and loose clothing. Keeping direct sun off of our skin and allowing sweat to naturally air condition under clothes drops our body temperature.
๐ Keep skin hydrated and refreshed with naturally cooling ingredients, like mint & eucalyptus. Applying cooling body oils to damp skin makes the biggest impact.
๐ Take temperate or cool showers and soaks. Include some cooling oils or soaks to bath water for extra soothing.
๐ Eat lots of fresh fruit and vegetables. You're entire body will thank you!
Stay cool!
