Eat regularly. Your body generates heat when digesting food. Warm drinks—like tea, soup, or heated water—can help maintain internal warmth. Stay hydrated, as dehydration can worsen cold stress.
Gentle movement improves circulation, but avoid sweating, which can actually cool you down once moisture evaporates. Check on family members, especially children, elderly individuals, and pets.
A powerless home may feel vulnerable at first—but with awareness, cooperation, and smart choices, it can remain safe and livable until the heat returns.
