When it comes down to it, these are the most important 200 life-skills that nobody teaches you: not in schools, not on TV, not on the internet or anywhere else.
The Lost Skills of Independence is a beautiful, old-fashioned, hardcover book, with old school illustrations, so you can easily understand the skill without having to read through pages after pages of empty words.
You don't have to read the entire book all at once; you can just learn one or two new things every day while enjoying your coffee or tea, and pick it up where you left off some other day. Or, put this book on your coffee table — it's an instant conversation starter! This is the kind of book you'll always want to have close by and go through a skill even if you've read it many times before.
It also makes a great gift, especially between parents and children. When you gift this, you're passing down the skills that make them independent and self-reliant. What better gift to give than this? Unfortunately, these skills are no longer passed down, and we're just one crisis away from needing them!
The Lost Skills of Independence is organized in a very practical way. Instead of a boring table of contents, 200 illustrated skill cards with their page number, so you can easily find the one you're looking for.
For each skill, you'll find step-by-step instructions and full-color illustrations that easily guide you along the way. You also get a complete list of ingredients, materials or tools so you know exactly what you need upfront, without wasting any time.
Built with a durable hardcover and thick, high-quality paper that won't tear easily or wear down — so you can use these skills for the rest of your life and even pass it down to the next generation. And, because it's spiral-bound, it stays open while your hands are busy.
I will also show the 100-year old way to make water out of thin air. This backyard project can help you pull moisture from the atmosphere and turn it into water, even in desert-dry conditions. So even if the tap runs dry, you have an endless supply of water on your property.

This common backyard plant that has a white sap that looks like the one in the opium poppy. Its painkilling effects are milder, but the plant is perfectly legal to harvest and use. If you're in pain, just break the stem, squeeze out the sap on your finger like this, put it under your tongue and let it sit there for about a minute. So, next time you see this apparently useless weed, don't step on it, as it may help you one day.

What I'm about to tell you will CANCEL everything you've been taught; even your instincts will probably tell you not to do it. But here's the thing: when someone insults you… they're actually measuring you, testing you to see what you're made of.

Just think about where you could use this -- at work, with your family, in your social group, with strangers, in traffic, or wherever it is with that person who constantly bullies you!

Survival foods are good to have but are expensive, taste bland, are unhealthy and deprived of nutrients and protein.

And if these meals sustained American families through one of the toughest times in our history--be sure they can do the same for you when the time comes.
