Yoga can help you cool down with it’s union of physical postures that calm your nerves and breath practices, called pranayama, cooling you from the inside out. Here are two yoga practices to help beat the heat. Forward Fold: You can do this either standing or seated. As you inhale, lengthen your spine upwards. Then, as you exhale, fold from your hips. Allow your spine to round and breathe deeply into your belly. Rest here for 10 breaths or up to 5 minutes. Sheetkari Cooling Breath: Place the tip of your tongue on the roof of your mouth, just behind your top row of teeth. Breathe in through your mouth – you’ll hear a hissing sound. Exhale through your nose. Repeat this breath 10 times.
