old farmers trick we use to stay cool is to get the left forearm (is closer to heart, don"t know if that really makes a difference) wet with cool water, let it be your radiator. keeps your clothes dry but you cool off fast.
I wonder if it's one of those things that works on any limb but the focus on the left arm adds some placebo effect on top.
For me, I am luckily always wearing rugged waterproof shoes so I've found that running cold water down your shins is super effective. It feels like I can feel the cooled blood flowing up my body, but I don't know if it's that or more of a reflex like goose bumps.
The back of the neck and base of skull are good too. And holding a really cold drink can on the side of the neck, like cooling the flow right into the brain where I need it (neuro issues exacerbated by heat) can be nice.
I'm going to have to try the left arm only within about an hour though. :D
