5 Ways to Keep Yourself Cool in the Heat

We all love a bit of sunshine, but sometimes the heat can be too much. Trying to sleep, work and relax can be a nightmare – especially when it’s stuffy and humid!

1. Try a wet towel
2. Keep a spray bottle at hand
3. Stay hydrated
4. DIY air conditioning
5. Keep your hair wet

We’ve put together a few tips to help you keep cool in the heat.

1. Try a wet towel

Wet a towel, blanket or handkerchief and place it on your body to keep yourself cool. If the cloth dries out, simply run it back under the heat and enjoy a peaceful, sweat-less sleep!

2. Keep a spray bottle at hand

Simply fill a spray bottle with cold water and spritz yourself whenever you like! The mist will cool your exposed skin, giving you sweet relief from the heat – a quick and easy solution.

3. Stay hydrated

Keep a bottle or glass of water nearby and take frequent sips to replace any fluids you may have lost throughout the day. Not only is this refreshing, but super good for your body!

4. DIY air conditioning

Don’t have AC? Make your own! Simply grab a fan and place a bowl of ice in front of it to enjoy the sweet sensation of cool air. Just remember to swap the ice out when it melts!

5. Keep your hair wet

If you have long hair, you know how bothersome it can be when it’s wet – but when the weather gets warmer? Paradise. Having wet hair will help cool your body temperature down, so it’s a great idea to do it before bed.
