As the summer sun turns up the heat, we know that staying cool and calm can be a challenge. At Careful Heart Company, your well-being is our priority, so we’ve crafted some mindful cooling practices to help you beat the heat and keep your self-care game strong.
1. Take a Refreshing Cold Shower: Start your day with a cold or cool shower to invigorate your senses and lower your body temperature. Not only will it leave you feeling refreshed, but it also helps to tighten pores and reduce skin inflammation.
2. Soothe with Cooling Eye Masks: After a long day, treat your eyes to some much-needed relaxation. Keep an eye mask in the fridge and apply it to reduce puffiness and cool down. It's a simple way to unwind and care for your delicate eye area.
3. Practice Deep Breathing: Heat can sometimes make us feel stressed or irritable. Counteract this with deep breathing exercises that calm the mind and body. Try this: inhale deeply for 4 seconds, hold for 7, and exhale slowly for 8. Repeat until you feel your body relax.
4. Use Cooling Body Products: Enhance your self-care routine with products designed to cool and hydrate. Look for ingredients like aloe, mint, and cucumber to keep your skin feeling fresh.
5. Stay Hydrated Inside and Out: Remember to drink plenty of water throughout the day. For an extra cooling effect, add slices of cucumber, mint, or lemon to your water. Keep your skin hydrated with lightweight moisturizers or hydrating mists that won’t weigh you down.
With love and cool vibes,
The Careful Heart Company Team
