Humor - The cure for Texas Heat - Pole Studios!

How to think like a Poler in a Texas August...and stay COOL

It's August.

In Texas.

Hot yoga - has nothing on this situation. You can leave THAT studio. Ya can't leave Texas with a job, a house payment and the family though... a Silver alert does sound like a good idea about now...

It's hot - horrible hot like 107 hot and within a concrete jungle…we clocked 124 on a parking lot with an infrared sensor. The house thermometer is reading 112, and ya wonder WHERE exactly are they checking the temperature at the weather service?!

August in Texas is not for the faint of heart or spirit.

And yet millions of women are out there DOING IT and fried like burned bacon!!!

For women here, August is…. Stressed!

1. There is too much light - the glare so intense even with sunglasses and a hat - ya get a headache like throb and eye strain

2. Driving in traffic with roads ranking at 120 degrees with other drivers tempers at 30 degrees makes you want to pull a silver alert

3. The Humid-ititty problem does NOT care there is NO humidity- it’s working overtime, and a bra is suppressing circulation - you NEED IT OFF! (Not just the bra, the boobs!)

4. You haven’t slept but 4-5 hours since August 8th! Your irritable off the scale.

5. The heat is so intense your scalp burns just from walking to the car.

6. The waist band of your pants has been soaked since 9 am. Shirt since you put it on

7. Your feet burn and you have SHOES on.

8. Your kids, family, pats and plants are WILTING in front of your face

9. Your bank account is bone dry from summer fun & the a/c bill as is your dry and or burned skin.

10. The thought of one more glass of water is nauseating

11. The thought of food that is not cold can make you shiver and stifle a retch.

12. Thought of a work-out is overwhelming- ya need no people, no more sweat and forget the tight social clothing... You have GOT to be kidding me in this heat! Not going to happen!

What do Polers know and do?

These are cortisol spike nightmare problems- ANSWER: Get to the POLE STUDIO!!!

Heat-light-sound-smells -stress filled situations and a women's LOAD! We need relief! Here is my take...

1. Ya need to drive to a safe place - the pole studio. ...Away from traffic, away from people and prying eyes. Away from others wants. Away from the world....

2. Get on something LOOSE! Something that says “this is ME!” and possibly…no bra because…

3. IT IS DARK IN THERE and you look good in the dark! No-one can even see that you didn’t have time to shave this week, your not fashion coordinated or you're drenched! Such a blessing!

4. Completely different conversations..... All they want to seem to do is talk about muscles, moves and their practice sessions, how they got away to the great pole studio escape (there are some hilarious stories!). They share that with you, and they don’t want anything FROM YOU. It’s like a treehouse club, they are just glad THEY are not alone in the women world loads and you are with them!

5. The pole studio is like a flipping church with soothing lighting, de-stressing music and…happy VIBES & it smells GOOD! But more important than anything….AND IT'S DARK!!!

6. IT is COLD in there. Studio Owners KNOW hormones - we keep it cool. Because we know we are gonna work and generate a heck of a lot of energy and have some hormones shift - hot flashes of the coolest kind! And they know that hitting your parasympathetic nervous system changes your cortisol levels!!!

7. You actually get thirsty - water breaks happen often and…”Hey - did someone else drink this - DID I just drink all that?!”

8. The studio has COLD snacks but, when you get done, food sounds great FINALLY

9. Your body awareness returns, your mind focused intently and forget the stressors and your cortisol DROPPED.

10. Your body starting moving, circulation returned to your body and brain and - “Damn I’m rocking this body” and “Whoop! Nailed that transition - I couldn’t even do that last week!” all happens!

11. You Can go home.... and cook… and nurture... what is yours…and SLEEP at least another hour or two… A flat TEXAS miracle.

12. In 3 months your doctors are stumped. And you are READY to eat holiday food!!! You need less check-ups, less medication than they thought. Yippee- more money for pole gear and classes! If you’d only found it sooner you’d HAVE more pole gear!

13. Your brain fog is better in the morning. You can SEE reality: This isn’t forever!” It's AUGUST!

14. Your cloths fit better in the morning. Work goes smoother because you are still giggling from the class antics and the “cortisol spike rollercoaster" is at bay longer.... and irritability ?...is just normal frustration - with the HEAT... and that's okay..... you have another class on Saturday!

August sucks in Texas.

Women have something COOL to do,...

Women have something cool to BE….an authentic individual COOL BODY/MIND/SPIRIT...

So the rest of the world doesn't crash(I mean honestly! what would they do without us?!)
