💙My Top Tips for Staying Cool 💙
For all the uk peeps melting
Use the picture here to focus on. Just breathe in the different shades of blue. Long, slow breaths.
🌊 Stop telling yourself how hot it is!
🚿 Run your wrists under a cold tap, or just jump in the shower. 😅
❄️ I put my hot water bottles in the freezer and freeze them up. Put one underneath your feet, one on a cool mat, and one underneath your pillow (with a cover on it, of course).
🧊 I freeze a big bottle of water and put it in front of any fan I’m using in the house.
🥶  keep a water spray bottle in the fridge throughout the day. Give yourself a spritz over take the spray bottle to bed with you spray yourself down through the night when you need to.
( I sleep with a towel on the bed)
🏠 When you live abroad, you often have incredible shutters that stop the heat from warming up even the windows. We don’t have them!!
But I do keep all my windows covered from the inside on the sunny side of the house, and I keep all doors and windows closed pretty much until the sun goes down.
Then, as I’m going to bed, I open all the windows. At 4 o’clock in the morning, I might even open all the doors.
🍽️ Abroad, some people do their cooking first thing in the morning, so you’re not putting the oven on in the evening. Just give it a quick heat-up later, or eat something cold.
🌅 wake up as early as you can so you can enjoy the freshness of the morning. Get any chores done at that time and then it also help you be more sleepy at night if you’ve been up early.
💙Take care of you. You’ve got this. 💙
