We are going to extreme lengths to stay cool during this heatwave.
This might be a tricky one, depending on how rigid your boss is or how essential your working time is.
Christine says: “Speak to your boss about changing your hours. This may not be possible, but managers have learnt to be flexible during the Covid-19 crisis, and working from home does allow for looser working conditions. If you’re really struggling to work during the day, see if you can work earlier – 6am before the sun really gets hot – or later, after 6pm when things start to cool down. Many managers will be flexible, especially if it’s only for a couple of days.
The head, wrists and feet are areas we lose heat the quickest, so cooling these parts of the body down can have a greater effect on the body overall. “Freeze a hot water bottle overnight, and keep it by your feet during work-hours. That might sound weird, but cooling your feet is one of the quickest ways to bring your entire body-temperature down. Keep a cool flannel against your neck too," Christine advises.
