Staying cool without air conditioning is not only possible but can also be fun and energy-efficient. Here’s a list of things you can use to keep yourself cool during hot days:

1. Cold Foot Soak: Fill a basin with cool water and soak your feet in it to cool down your entire body.
2. Fans and Bowls of Ice: Place a bowl of ice in front of a fan to help cool down the air blowing towards you.
3. Mist Spray Bottles: Fill a spray bottle with water and keep it in the fridge. Spritz yourself with a fine mist of cold water for instant refreshment.
4. Avoid Heat-Generating Appliances: Minimize the use of heat-generating appliances like stoves and ovens during the hottest parts of the day.
5. DIY Air Cooler: Create a DIY air cooler by placing a shallow pan of ice in front of a fan to blow cool air around the room.
6. Hydration: Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water and consuming hydrating fruits and vegetables like watermelon and cucumber.
7. Cross-Ventilation: Open windows on opposite sides of your home to allow fresh air to flow through, creating a cooling breeze.
8. Window Treatments: Install reflective window films or blackout curtains to block out the sun’s heat during the hottest parts of the day.
9. Fans: Use ceiling fans, floor fans, or oscillating fans to circulate air and create a cooling effect. You can even place a bowl of ice in front of the fan for an extra chill.
10. Cold Food and Beverages: Enjoy cold meals and beverages, like salads and iced tea, to help regulate your body temperature.
11. Avoid Direct Sunlight: During the hottest parts of the day, stay indoors or in shaded areas to avoid direct sunlight.
12. Evening Walks: Take a refreshing walk in the evening when the temperature has cooled down a bit.
