the other day someone asked about this .. what is the way you can cool down in the summer and one thing i have been doing is I picked up some of those blue gel ice packs at the dollar store. the ones in hard plastic... They have some decent ones here once in a while .. big ones and then they have the smaller ones about the size of your hand.
If you are seated and stick two of the smaller ones behind your knees and your legs press against them pretty well .. and then a larger one on your chest/stomach it will cool you down pretty quick as the blood flows through your legs. It takes a little bit but it will cool your core temperature and its good when you come in from the outside and are really warm.. helps prevent heat exhaustion and will cool you down.
that and a cold shower and an air conditioner or sleeping in the basement if you have one.
Anyway I tried to find that person that asked but search was no help.. And I just had to do this because I am overheated and can't get to sleep .. I know once i can feel it in my head I am headed in the right direction..
Good luck people its going to be a warm holiday.. stay cool and safe
