Hot Days , Cool Hacks - How I stay Sane!!

Summer is not my favourite season of the year, but it is not the worst season of all time. While I might complain about the endless heat and scourging sun, plants are dancing to the beauty of it.

Due to longer day light, there is more photosynthesis and as a result of that, plants gets to grow faster. It is during summer that flowers bloom. You can of course see the show off from Sun flower, hibiscus and the likes of them.

I can only imagine the stares from bee's and butterflies when they hear me complain about the scourging sun. They love every bit of the weather condition, it's their favourite season in the year because, that is when those little creatures are super active pollinating flowers.

Since the world was not created for me alone, I have to adapt and build a survival strategy just like these other creatures do when it get's to a season that is not so favourable for them.

My Cool Hacks

• I always stay hydrated: I have these really cute water bottle I carry around all the time. I store a reasonable amount of water inside it to keep my hydrated during the day. It is always the first thing I carry when going out. And due to how cute it is, I use it for show off as well. Lolz

• Eating Light: I prevent any heavy food that will make me feel sweaty. I eat more of vegetables and fruits. By so doing, I don't get to sweat often.

• No dark or tight outfits: I avoid dark or tight clothing because they attract heat and trap them in your body as though you are a sacrifice ready to be offered to the gods. I always go for a loose and light clothing. If you see any lady roaming around on the street with big shirts and pants, that is me!!

• I don't go out once it 12noon: I alway plan my movement during the early hours of the day or in the evening. I barely go out between 12noon - 1pm. Unless it is an emergency. And when such situations plays out, I am always out with my umbrella and water bottle.

• Proper Ventilation: I don't joke this this. I always ensure my windows are open when the power is out and when there is power in the house, my fan is always turned on. I hardly and barely put off the fan.

• Sleeping on the floor: I sleep on the floor more during summer. The floor is always cool and I enjoy the feel of it on my body.

With these little daily practices, I am able to live comfortable and enjoy the season with the remaining creatures on earth.

I avoid sitting close to the bush or grass as reptiles and it's family would want to enjoy the heat. They depend on the external heat to regulate their body temperature and when that is done, they become more active. And when a reptile is active, the rest is history.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you enjoy and learn as well.
