Most of us know that one person, who always walks around without so much as a warm hat to wear even when it’s ferociously cold, as well as that other person who continuously complains about being freezing even on a scorching hot day. So, what’s the reason?
If you’ve ever felt a sudden bout of the chills or a feverish heat and yet there’s no change in the surrounding room or outside temperature, it might simply be that you’ve fallen seriously ill. If you suspect this might be the case, there’s not much you can do about it yourself – just go to a doctor straight away.
If you find that everyone at work is wrapped up in warm clothing whilst your sitting sweating in a thin blouse or shirt, then it may very well be that your higher body temperature is the result of stress caused by a tough work schedule, or family/relationship problems. The only thing you can do here is learn to deal with life better. Let go of worries and thoughts that really aren’t important, and think positively.
Even if the temperature in the room or outside is normal, many of us may feel somewhat off based on our emotional state. Reports show that, when people feel isolated, alone or depressed, they are more likely to feel the shivers. The opposite is true for the times we feel connected and more social. That warm, fuzzy feeling that happens, when you’re surrounded by people you love spending time with? It really is a physical feeling that makes us more receptive to heat and leaves us feeling warmer and happier than if we were surrounded by strangers.
