1. Don’t wear heavy clothes that will trap sweat. Instead, wear light, breathable fabrics such as cotton and silk. Bring along an extra shirt when you know you’ll be exercising or outdoors in the heat. Your feet can sweat too, so wear socks that wick moisture away from them (merino wool and polypro are good choices).
2. Daily Hygiene: you can use mild antibacterial soap when taking a shower, apply antiperspirant on clean, dry skin only, and use special armpit pads if necessary.

4. Reduce stress and control your emotions: mediation, breathing practices, long walks, warm baths and quiet music can help you.
