Mental Preparation for Disasters (sub-titled, What’ll it be, Gloom, Doom, Panic, Denial, or PEACE), Foundation class #1008— Getting your emotional mindset in place before a disaster is critical to making it through tough situations. There are many great books to help you understand the process of developing mental and emotional resilience. Here are the eight that I use to guide people through the process in several of the classes that I teach.
Your 72-Hour Kit Could Kill You (audio overview)— Recorded in front of a live audience at a Civil Defense training meeting in April of 1997 (40 Min). This is additional background material to help people understand the issues and limits of nearly all commercial 72-hour kits, and is provided as support material for two full classes taught by Jim Phillips: Your 72-Hour Kit Could Kill You, Foundation class #1107, & An Evacuation Kit to Live By, Foundation class #1220, available on DVD at JimsWay.com.

It’s what you don’t know that will kill you (or get you sick, lost, scared, hurt, or kill someone else). Since you don’t know what you don’t know, how do you figure out what you don’t know—should you even bother to worry about it. You need a way of looking at things and asking searching questions to uncover the answers to the questions you don’t know to ask. You'll also need an organized structure for what you should Learn, Do and Have to face the future with hope and confidence. {1hr 17min video}

Winter Without Worries, Part-0 is the introduction and overview to the class series Winter Without Worries that will be available online for the first time at JimsWay.com. It is Very Important to Watch This Introduction to Understand the Structure, Order and Process for This Class Series to be Successfully Taught Online. The Winter Without Worries Class Series, with Over 20-Hours of Instruction and a 180+ page Class Manual, Is on JimsWay.com in the Members Only Library.
In 1984 I taught the original version of the class titled Without Fire of Shelter (WOFOS), which 20 years later was changed to Winter Without Worries™. WOFOS went through five editions, WWW is now in its seventh. I taught WOFOS for the first time in Provo, Utah one night a week over six weeks starting March of 1984, with the 17 students paying $35 each to cover classroom rent and printing of the manual. Later we had to charge up to $150 each to cover auditorium and printing costs.
From this humble beginning came a 10,000 sq-ft manufacturing plant in Orem, Utah that delivered several million dollars of unique extreme cold weather clothing and footwear making its way to the North and South Poles, mountain peaks in Alaska, the Andes, and Antarctica, 50-states in the U.S., the Pakistani Military, U.S. Navy Seal Teams, U.S. Army 10th Mountain Division, U.S. Marines, and even the Soviet Union’s Submarine Service, just to name a few.
From 1984 thru 2018 all classes were presented live, in person. The full 28-hour WWW class has been given to over 1,000 students, with the dozens of classes derived from the original winter course being taught live to well over 10,000 participants. The published and online versions of these other classes have gone to even more.
The Winter Without Worries™ classes in the past required me to bring a small moving van full of boxes and bags with samples and examples to illustrate the items being presented.
For years I’ve dreamt of properly recording and publishing this class in detail to the world. For this attempt, it will be the poor man's approach. The intent is to one day soon have the resources to make it better, and significantly shorter through illustrated details and animation.
This first WWW, Part-0 installment will share the structure, process, difficulties, and what you can do to get the best winter safety and comfort in the most extreme conditions possible. To make this happen I’ll have to take approaches and use methods I’ve never attempted before. Your participation and understanding are very important to make this work for both of us.
