4. Try a herbal medicine called black cohosh. Clinical trials have proved that it can relieve hot flashes and night sweats in menopausal women. Recent studies have also found that it can act on the hypothalamus, so it has the effect of regulating body temperature.

5. Give up duvets and use sheets instead. If possible, you can also wrap the sheets in plastic bags in advance, put them in the refrigerator and take them out before going to bed. This method can help you sleep better in hot summer.

6. Sit down, close your eyes and imagine the snow. Studies have found that the body can respond to this imagination and lower the overall temperature.

7. Reasonable opening and closing of doors and windows. Many people think it's cool to open doors and windows in summer, but it's not. Outside during the day

When the temperature is high, doors and windows are wide open, and sunshine and thermal radiation are accompanied by bursts of hot air, which will make indoor and outdoor generally hot. If you open the doors and windows for ventilation in the morning and evening when the weather is cool, close the doors and windows during the day, especially at noon, isolate the invasion of outdoor hot air, and draw a light curtain to block the sun and reflect the thermal radiation, you can make the room cooler. According to the actual observation, although the outdoor temperature in Chengdu exceeds 30 degrees in the afternoon, the indoor temperature can still be kept at about 28 degrees by the above methods.

But also has the function of regulating microclimate, making the air fresh, cool and pleasant. Because green plants can not only shade the sun, but also reduce the temperature by evaporating the water on the leaves. Some data show that planting grapes, morning glory, Parthenocissus tricuspidata and some flowers and plants on the courtyard balcony can reduce the temperature of the attached wall by 5℃ ~ 14℃ and the indoor temperature by 2℃ ~ 4℃.

Partial evaporation absorbs heat; You can also put a basin of cold water in front of the fan and turn on the fan to evaporate the water into cool air, which can all play a role in lowering the room temperature.
