Synopsis

Surviving Disasters on Your Own Terms Sometimes things go badly and all our hopes and plans fail us. Our illusions are shattered, our expectations are beyond anyone's capacity to fulfill, and our demands go unanswered. When this time comes, what will you do? Anytime you are reading about survival, you are reading about resiliency. Resiliency is the ability to recover quickly from setbacks. Preparation for emotional or physical challenges is part of the process, but there is no magic formula for resiliency that will make a disaster less destructive, disruptive, or devastating. True resiliency is more than just having a plan: it is a mindset, a decision made before the crisis that you have chosen to survive. Be Aware, Prepared & Resilient Disasters can happen at any time but with some careful thought and little preparation you can make choices before a disaster strikes that can directly improve your situation. Topics include understanding disasters, response capabilities, federal disaster response, personal preparation, how to make a good plan, mental resiliency in disaster situations, my choices worksheets, safety in numbers (be part of the team), survival kit basics, and extensive discussion of natural and man-made disasters to include: hurricanes, earthquakes, wildfires, floods, volcanoes, tsunamis, tornadoes, drought & famine, blizzards & ice storms, outbreaks, epidemics & pandemics, nuclear events, civil disturbances, explosions & chemical spills.
