Monsoon season officially runs through the end of September, but the air usually starts drying out before the calendar says so.

A lot of people quietly drink less water once the humidity drops, because they stop feeling sweaty and assume they are fine. Thirst is a late signal, not an early one.

Keep a bottle where you already spend time, in the car, on your desk, next to the couch. If plain water is boring, add citrus or a splash of juice. Headaches, afternoon fog, and low energy are often just dehydration wearing a different outfit.

Mornings in Tucson start getting a little more forgiving in September. If moving your body felt impossible all summer, this is a good stretch to try again.

A short walk before work counts. Fifteen minutes around your block or one loop through a neighborhood park is enough to loosen stiff joints and clear your head before the day starts asking things of you.

Bring water even for a short walk, and keep the pace slow enough that you could hold a conversation. This is not about fitness goals. It is about starting the day on your own terms.

We have been under excessive heat warnings for weeks now. It's okay if you've been worn down by it. That is a normal response to a long stretch of hard weather.

You do not have to find the bright side, or be grateful for the monsoon, or remind yourself that January is coming. You are allowed to just not like this.

What helps is making the day smaller.

Cut the list down. Pick the two things that actually HAVE to happen on hard hot days and let the rest wait for October.

• Walk after the sun goes down instead of not walking at all.

• Text the person you have been meaning to text; it does't have to turn into a conversation.

• Let the house be messy. Nobody is coming over. And it's too hot!

None of that makes the day cooler but it makes the weeks more livable, and right now that is the most important thing.

When you cannot take one more day of the heat, drive up the mountain.

Go far enough up the Catalina Highway and you are standing under pine trees or head south to Madera Canyon. Big trees, shade, cooler air.

You don't need a real plan, just drive out there sit and enjoy the environment, then come home. It is half a day and it resets you and turns an ordinary weekend into a nice memory.
