* Fill a hot water bag with cold water instead of hot water and apply it well on your knees, ankles, wrists, neck, groin, and elbows. It will give you some comfort. You can also sleep with a hot water bag filled with cold water.
* Wear thin cotton clothes while sleeping. It is better if your bed sheets, bedding, and pillow covers are made of cotton. Cotton cloth can absorb sweat very easily.
* Strange as it may sound, wet socks work to keep the body cool in the heat. Keep the socks that you are going to wear in the fridge and cool them down before putting them on.
* Don’t eat too much protein food on hot days. Because when protein is digested, a lot of heat is generated in the body, as a result of which it is normal to feel hot.
* Even if you eat spicy food, eat it at least 3 hours before going to bed. By doing this a lot of sweat will come out and the body will get cold. As a result, you can sleep peacefully.
* Exercise in the morning, not in the afternoon or evening. Because the body is very hot as a result of exercise in the afternoon or evening. Bathe in the evening if needed to reduce body temperature.
* During the day, draw the window curtains to prevent direct sunlight from entering the house. Close the windows on the side of the house that receives the most sunlight. Open the window while sleeping at night.
* Turn off all electrical appliances in the bedroom that generate heat.
* Place a large bowl of ice in front of the table fan. It will cool the fan air.
* Drink plenty of water during the day during hot weather. But don’t drink too much water at night. Half a glass of water before bed at night is enough to meet your overnight water needs. If you drink too much at night, it will cause urinary pressure and disturb sleep several times.
* Try sleeping in a bed alone. Two or more people in one bed generate more heat and feel hot.
* Try sleeping on the floor if you feel too hot.
* Wash your hands and feet thoroughly with cold water before going to bed. You will get comfort.
* Rub some menthol cream or lotion on your forehead if you wake up at night. This will make you feel cold.
