Whew! We don’t know about your location, but it gets just a tiny bit hot here in the Coachella Valley in July at 115 degrees Fahrenheit – about 46 degrees Celsius for our metric friends.
How do you stay safe in the heat?
1. Stay hydrated
Even if you don’t feel thirsty, you still need to drink. Water goes fast in hot weather. If you don’t like the taste, check out ourarticle on staying hydrated.
2. Wear loose, lightweight clothing and a hat
Keep the sun off your face and off your skin. Tight clothing will heat you up, as will heavy clothing. Stay away from heavyweight denim. Long sleeves, surprisingly, are often better than short sleeves because they help protect your skin from the sun.
3. Don’t leave people or pets in the car without the a/c running
The interior of a car heats up FAST, and leaving a window cracked doesn’t help. If you need to run errands and they can’t come in with you, leave them at home instead.
Check your backseat when you leave the car to make sure that you don’t accidentally leave a sleeping child behind.
4. Stay in the air conditioning as much as you can
Sometimes you need to be out and about, but head for the a/c when possible. Shopping centers, libraries, and community centers are usually cooled.
But with COVID-19 they may be closed. Do your work and crafts at home, lifting up your work surface and using other ergonomic principles to save your back and the rest of your body too.
5. Avoid going hard in the heat
Many of us like to exercise outdoors, but summer in the middle of the day is not the best time. Get up early or stay out late to take advantage of cooler temps.
Likewise, when you have other strenuous work to do, work early or late. Don’t wait until it’s too hot to get things done.

You worked on a hard deadline and delivered something beautiful
You worked on a hard deadline and delivered something beautiful. That means everything. The tablecloth is the centerpiece of the booth. It brings Dulce Bembé to life. Thank you!
I was so happy when I found your product! Simple design and easy to use. I avoided having to buy a new sewing table. The risers do not slip and the table feels very sturdy. 2 minutes to install. Highly recommend!
I set up an area on my back porch for bleaching and dyeing shirts. Unfortunately, the tables I got didn't have adjustable heights. My back was constantly aching from bending over a table for prolonged periods. I ordered these after seeing all the reviews on Amazon. What a lifesaver! They went on so easily and the tables are super sturdy. Perfect height for working without pain!! Would recommend to anyone and everyone!
I ordered the wrong size from Amazon. When I tried to return them, Amazon directed me to the Lift Your Table company. I spoke with Bethany and she helped me figure out what size I need. She did not charge me for the additional expense of the larger size. She only charged me $15 for shipping. She told me that I didn’t need to return the original set but to gift them to someone who could use them. She was very professional and very kind. I highly recommend this “Made in America” company!
The NuChair design makes sense, so I bought one, and my staff love it! It does offload the low back when sitting and maintains tall strong sitting posture while sitting. In 40 years of practice I have never seen a chair that can deliver good ergonomics and postural support. The NuChair is the NuWay to get it done. Bravo.
These are a life-saver. I am going to get them for all of my work tables. No more hunching over! And, I can stand and work if I want to. We know that sitting is really bad for us. This was a VERY worthwhile purchase.
