Summer is the best time to live your life. Longer days and abundant amounts of sun boost our vitamin D, serotonin, and our mood. Who could ask for more? Unfortunately, there’s a slight downside to this glorious season. It’s unbearably hot, especially when working and always on the go!
We sweat, we’re uncomfortable, dehydrated – all of it before even leaving the house. A simple solution would be to crank up the AC and stay inside until autumn. Sadly, things aren’t that simple.
Therefore, take a look at some ways to cool ourselves down & beat the heat!
1. Stay Hydrated
Make sure your body isn’t left wanting for water. You will sweat a lot, and it is vital to replenish your fluid content by drinking water regularly. Dehydration can cause severe weakness, fatigue, and other illnesses in extreme circumstances.
2. Wear Breathable Clothes
Less is more, especially during the summertime heat. Dress loose and pick the materials that let your skin breathe — cotton or linen will do the trick.
3. Eat Mindfully
There’s a good reason salads are so prevalent in warmer climates. They’re a lot easier to digest and won’t make you feel sluggish in the summertime heat. Avoid fatty foods at all costs. I know those delicious burgers look inviting, but you’ll feel better if you stick to fruits and veggies. These healthy goodies are so watery that they’ll keep you hydrated and cool you down in no time.
