For a few weeks - apart from some brief brackets of days a little cooler - it seems that someone out there has turned on a mega oven and it is leaving it slowly. Since we are not equipped against the heat with air conditioners and pool in the garden, we give you simple but very effective tips to defend itself from warmly 100% naturally. You are ready? Let's begin!
At the table!
Like 90% of life problems, even the problem of heat is resolved at the table. Fresh fruit, raw vegetables, white meats, fresh fish. Better to choose recipes that do not require long cooking times so you will not further heat the environment with burning furnaces and stove. A fantastic and healthy rice salad, for example. It is very useful some grain of salt under the tongue in case the heat broke out the pressure. And (important!) It is better to avoid legumes, spinach and too many sweets. If you didn't know, they contribute to increasing body temperature.
Drink drinking drink
Drink as if there was no tomorrow. Especially in recent months, when sweating increases, it is essential to drink at least two liters of water the day. In addition to body and skin hydration, drinking a lot is important to better withstand the heat. Why not prepare mid-morning or mid-afternoon of the very fresh infusions to cucumber or mint? Or a healthy lemonade? Our body will not be able to grateful.
Never shower cold!
It may seem trivial, but make a nice cold shower when the temperature oscillates between 30 and 40 degrees is not a good idea at all. Although at first it will seem to have found refrigerator and well-being, after a few minutes our perception of heat will be multiplied by a thousand! The real solution is a warm, almost warm shower. You will immediately feel better and you will be less sensitive to heat.
Refresh the house
Rule n. 1: Enter fresh air at home. In the late evening or early morning (before the hot sun arrives, to speak), open the windows and circulate the coolest air among domestic environments. Rule n. 2: Keep out the heat. During the day, do the exact opposite: barricades everything. Close the dark windows and try to let you enter less sun and hot air as possible. You will have any less bright, but much freshest environments. An extra tip: refresh the floors with cold water once a day will make the temperature down at least two degrees.
Plants can replace the air conditioner
If you have a green thumb (even a clear green), know you have no need to have a home air conditioner installed. Plants like Aloe Vera, Sansevera, ivy, fern or dracena contribute greatly to make the temperature of the environments in which they are! You will cool, you will save some money and nature will thank you twice.
Lightweight fabrics
Without necessarily having to renounce to be fashionable, in order to face the heat we are forced to make intelligent choices. Always choose light and large clothes, cotton or flax. Pants, skirts, shirts. Possibly, preferring not too dark colors. The choice is simply in-fi-ni-ta.
Mint essential oil
One of the thousand owners of mint essential oil is to know how to exercise on our psyche a relaxing and refreshing action. It can be used to make moisturizing soaps or even candles (both for the outside and for closed environments) or even detergents! Because besides increasing perception and fragrance of fresh, it also has a strong disinfectant power.
Ginseng, sage and rosemary
A tris simply winning against the heat! An infusion of ginseng, sage, rosemary with the addition of a sprig of mint is a real touch for the taking of these hot days. Moreover, these common and simple aromatic herbs can really be the solution for those suffering from excessive sweating.
