Get Your Body Cooler to Sleep

*See the "Energy" painting Ruth did for a customer, illustrating the warmer colors of activity.
To get cooler...
Take cool shower or bath
Turn Fans on
Lay on cool waterbed with heater off
Do exercise in morning, not at night
Use the Counting & Breathing Technique
Turn on A/C for those certain hot summer nights
