Tips for Keeping Cool in a Hot, Humid Summer

Where I live, summer is long, hot and humid and often has  long periods of drought.  It heats up in the middle of May and finally cools down at the end of September with most days in 90’s and even the 100’s.  So summer here is definitely pitta season, as pitta is fire and water, and is hot, sharp, oily, liquid and intense.


Everyone experiences summer in a different way.  If you have a fiery constitution, you might dread the heat and humidity of summer and dream of spending time in a cooler climate.  If you are someone who feels chilled all year round, you might relish the heat of summer.  Either way, we all benefit from making adjustments to our diet and lifestyle along with the flow of the seasons.
