Tips for Surviving the Summer Heat

Most of us are not accustom to the higher summer temperatures, AZUR offers these simple tips to help cope with the high temps and humidity:

- Drink plenty of fluids - enough to quench your thirst
- Run outside errands in the cooler parts of the day (early morning or late evening)
- Wear lighter clothing made of natural fabrics (cotton)
- Monitor yourself, if you are having difficulty keeping up the pace - SLOW DOWN
- Seek areas of shade if you must work outside
- Dampen a cloth with water and drape on the back of your neck - instant cooling effect

Enjoy your summer but be safe.
