Placebo
Fan is placebo, blowing hot air
in lazy circuits in the closed room.
I consider opening a window
onto the 90 degree day, reject it,
consider a cool shower; but instead
take a hot bath, so the air feels cool
on my wet body
when I step in front of it.

I agree, Sadje. I was convinced I felt cooler ;)

It works in reverse too- we used to take a shower with fresh ( cold) water in winter and felt warm afterwards. But I was younger and now I won’t experiment.

Cold water isn’t on my list of things to bathe in. That said, I’ll go into Lake Michigan when it’s very cold. It’s invigorating once you get used to it.

I like hot tea on a day like that….
it must work like the hot bath, a bit, anyway. :-D

Awesome! You’ve got your tea ritual. You go to the gym every morning? Even more impressive!

Hahaha… hardly worthy of that idea, but a must-do. Gym not on Saturday, or Wednesday. :-)

I take hot baths and showers for that same reason in summer.
