I had a long cool bath. It really made a huge difference. If you're getting seriously overheated I would strongly recommend it.
Being immersed in cool water for at least 20 minutes will really draw the excess heat from deep in your body. It's made me feel much better for several hours now.

Running clothes under cold water, rinsing them out, and putting them on helps to keep you cool with just fans running. Do the same with sheets or a towel to sleep with and it makes the night much more bearable. It sounds weird but it works.
