The most popular subject on our blog has been for a while How To Build A Bunker. With many thousands of hits on this subject coming from Google and other search engines, I thought it would make sense to add an entry here that would address the curiosity and feed the knowledge in this area.

As we all know or at least can imagine, building a bunker can get very expensive and is not for the average person’s budget. But this doesn’t mean you cannot build your own strong enough to resist major catastrophes and obviously those of a smaller scale. Read all about it in the ALL NEW “How To Build A Survival Bunker“.

If you are in the water, make your way to a raft. If no rafts are available, try to find a large piece of floating debris to cling to. Relax; a person who knows how to relax in ocean water is in very little danger of drowning. The body’s natural buoyancy will keep at least the top of the head above water, but some movement is needed to keep the face above water.
Floating on your back takes the least energy. Lie on your back in the water, spread your arms and legs, and arch your back. By controlling your breathing in and out, your face will always be out of the water and you may even sleep in this position for short periods. Your head will be partially submerged, but your face will be above water. If you cannot float on your back or if the sea is too rough, float facedown in the water as shown on the picture.

How To Prepare yourself for The Global Catastrophe in Dec 2012: Physiological Preparation – How to Stay Alive
Your mission in The Global Catastrophe 2012  is to stay alive. The assortment of thoughts and emotions you will experience in a survival situation can work for you, or they can work to your downfall. Fear, anxiety, anger, frustration, guilt, depression, and loneliness are all possible reactions to the many stressors common to survival. These reactions, when controlled in a healthy way, help to increase your likelihood of surviving. They prompt you to pay more attention in training, to fight back when scared, to take actions that ensure sustenance and security, to keep faith with your fellow team members, and to strive a gains large odds. When you cannot control these reactions in a healthy way, they can bring you to a standstill. Instead of rallying your internal resources, you listen to your internal fears. These fears will cause you to experience psychological defeat long before you physically succumb.

Remember, survival is natural to everyone; being unexpectedly thrust into the life-or-death struggle of survival is not. Do not be afraid of your “natural reactions to this unnatural situation.” Prepare yourself to rule over these reactions so they serve your ultimate interest—staying alive with honor and dignity.

There has obviously been a stronger buzz going around about this date that has not only been predicted, but also showing signs of scientific possibilities in recent years. The date is only 4 years away and it’s never a good idea to wait until it’s too late to start thinking of a game plan.

You may not have a fallout shelter when warning of approaching fallout is broadcast. Here are some tips on how to increase your protection in a basement. The amount of protection you can build will depend on how much time you have available until fallout arrives.
• You can improvise a small emergency shelter by using furniture, doors, dressers, work-bench and other materials.
• Select a corner of your basement, if possible away from windows, in which to build your shelter. Remove inside house doors from hinges to use as a shelter roof over supports. Supports for the improvised roof can be cabinets, chests of drawers, work-bench, or anything which will bear a heavy load.

Use the house doors as a roof surface to provide a base for the heavy material you will have to place on it. Bricks, concrete blocks, sand-filled drawers or boxes, books or other dense items on the roof will help reduce radiation penetration. Around the sides and front of your shelter build walls of dense materials to provide vertical shielding. A small cabinet or dirt-filled box as may be used as a crawl-in entrance which can be closed behind you.
• Remember, the heavier or more dense the material around you, the greater the protection.
• Block basement windows with earth, bricks, concrete blocks, books or even bundles of newspaper. In winter, use packed snow.
• On the floor above the corner of the you select as your shelter area, pile any heavy objects you may have available, such as furniture, trunks filled with clothes, dirt-filled boxes, books, newspapers, or earth from outside.
• Outside, against above ground walls of the basement around your shelter area heap earth, sand, bricks, concrete blocks or packed snow. Read the rest of this entry
