Lesson Overview

47.4 – Staying Cool and Hydrated in Hot Weather: Staying cool and hydrated in hot weather helps protect your body from fatigue, heat exhaustion, and dehydration. Wearing light, breathable fabrics and drinking water throughout the day keeps you refreshed and alert. Avoiding outdoor activities during peak heat hours reduces strain on your body. Finding shade, using fans, or cooling towels can make a big difference in comfort. It’s also important to recognize signs of overheating like dizziness, nausea, or muscle cramps. Keep water bottles filled and ready, and avoid excessive caffeine or sugary drinks that worsen dehydration. Protecting pets and checking on vulnerable family members adds safety for everyone. Staying mindful of hydration and temperature keeps your body balanced. Smart summer habits build endurance, health, and awareness for the long, warm months ahead.
