With summer just around the corner, many find it tricky to live up against its increasing heat. For those who do not have the advantage of using air-cooling machines at home or office, it is even more complicated to find respite in a hot summer day, transpiring into a stuffy night.

It is therefore to your advantage if you can start your day with a cool shower before setting out for everyday drudgery. It is practical to wrap oneself in clothes of lighter fabric and texture during this time. Carrying an umbrella and putting on dark sunglasses are definitely IN this summer irrespective of gender. For men who are office-goers it is imperative they wear pump shoes closed from all sides but students and those working in a less restrictive office environment, can easily try out cool foot wears with enough ventilation. For women, summer is a boon when they have every opportunity to lay bare their enviable collection of classy footwear.

It is crucial to have enough liquid intakes. 2-3 litres of water a day should be the bare minimum. Along with this, fruit juices and health drinks will keep the supply of necessary minerals adequate. Tea and coffee are strong diuretics so keep their intake to the lowest.

With food, it is wise to try out boiled vegetables and meat and fish cooked with little oil. However, it is not unlikely that you will slip out of this routine once in a while, especially at a wedding party or a friend’s birthday. What is important is to be sure that you keep well after everything. Since a hot summer day is the least suitable for working out, one can take up some exercises in the morning before taking shower. This little effort on your part is sure to keep you surprisingly fresh the whole day out.

Last but not the least, this summer whenever you have to take an important decision, personal or professional, make sure you do that with a cool head. Summer can never be better if you keep on doing the right things and saying the right words throughout!

Equipped with all these formula, one might end up enjoying a summer day and might agree with Emily Dickinson, the eccentric spinster of literature:

There came a Day at Summer’s full,
Entirely for me-
Enjoy this summer in style!
