Hello again. In my first blog I brifely stated my introduction to my survival philosophy. In this blog I wish to beifely outline my 6 fundamentals to survival in any situation or climate.
If your stranded in the desert, stuck in a frozen forest or lost in the woods these 6 principles, if followed, will definately benefit your situation and total outcome of your survival experience.
These 6 H's are my key points that I will be teaching in all my classes, videos and instruction. The 6 points lay out, in a specifice order what elements must be obtained and maintained to give you success in a survival situation. I will even have poket cards made and available or download at a future time to keep with your survival kits or what not but remembering or writing them down will definately help.
The 6 H's
H1 - Heat - Fire is the ultimate resource in a survival experience. It warms you, protects you, drys cloathes, cooks food, protects you and many more things. Your first priority should always be to develope and maintain a good working fire to assist you in the rest of your survival points and help sustain your life.
H2 - Home - Second to fire, shelter is key. You may be warm from the fire but you still need to be protected from the elements. Shelter provided you protection from heat and cold, wet and even from pesky critter. It is also a huge comfort and security factor in your survival. Home or shelter should be your second priority.
H3 - Hydration - The human can go 3 days without water. But that is also deteremined on the climate and amount of activity performed. After fire and shelter, it is time to find, gather and puriy a safe means of water. We will go over many safe ways to do this in the near future.
H4 - Healthy Eating - You dont have a store or take out and you possible have no or little food packed with you in the field. Food is the next point. We will discuss ways and methods and areas where food resources can be gathered or hunted. It will be crucial that you learn ways of obtaining healthy types and ammounts of food to help you survive.
H5 - Hygiene - You are out in the wild exposed to dirt, no showers, bugs and pests, hunting food and getting filthy. Sickness and disease can be a big factor in the success of your survival experiance. You must have an idea of how to keep yourself and even your survival camp healthy and clean. Keeping good hygiene will also assure that your health will be better upon rescue or recovery and that you will not have any long term healh problems.
H6 - Help - Now you must seek or find help. Its imparative you know ways of signaly or grasping the attention of those that can help you or be able to navigate and find your way out of a survival experience and back to civilization.
These 6 points, once again, are the key philosophic points that will be covered in all of my material. Good well rounded knowlege on each H will assure your survival experience has as best as an outcome possible. Those who gave up or lost the will to survive or didnt follow rules and priorities like this can not give testimony to it because they did not make it. Those who have the will to survive and follow life saving and sustaining guidlines will make it through.
I will talk about and post videos on each of these points in the future. They will be out of order and bounce around a bit but each will be labeled in the title the H point they represent.
Be well and Be safe.
