The recent warm spell has had many of us bringing out our portable fans, taking multiple showers a day or even staying longer in the office to enjoy the air-conditioning.

Try these quirkier methods of staying cool:

1. Break Out in Cold Sweat

This is the perfect time to give a presentation in front of your whole team or get lunch with your intimidating colleague. Your nervous sweating is sure to keep you cold and take your mind off the weather.

2. Keep a Cool Head

If you find yourself getting irritated more easily these past few weeks, slap an ice pack on your forehead for a few minutes.

3. Send Shivers Down Your Spine

Stand in front of a mirror and recite these chill-inducing sentences:

“The deadline has been pushed forward by two weeks.”

“The budget has been cut by half.”

“Scrap the report and start from scratch.”

4. Be Out Cold

Sleeping is a great remedy for many problems, including hot weather. So take a nap – maybe it’ll be cooler outside when you wake up.

5. Take a Chill Pill

One way to stay cool… is to stay cool. Do something that helps you relax, like attending a wellness session at the Zentosa Fest, watching cute animal videos or reading a Challenge article.
