Youth Hunters and Success (Part 1)

Setting up the Next Generation of Hunters for-Success (Part 1)

These words are directed to new parents and or couples who are looking to conceive/adopt.

There are many ways to set up the next generation of hunters for a life filled with health and hunting opportunities.

One of those ways is how you communicate with one another.

I’m talking about the tone of voice and quality of words spoken to each other.

When babies sleep, they process the emotional tones of voices.

This means, that the tone of voice you use with each other near your child can impact them and their health.

If there is a positive tone of voice, and they are sleeping relatively close by, their bodies will respond well with joy and happiness.

If there is an angry tone of voice, and they are sleeping relatively close by, their bodies will potentially have increased levels of stress internally.

Over time with repeated exposures and stress responses, their future behavior could be altered as they age.

Such as becoming less able to control their emotions and more likely to become anxious.

All because there was anger expressed near them.

Luckily, since you are reading this, you won’t let that happen.

Instead, you and your significant other will communicate effectively with humility, accountability, reason, logic, and the understanding that whatever is causing your angry tone of voice is most likely irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.

When you are 97 years old, will you be thinking about what is making you angry?

If not, then remember this article next time you are tempted to express that angry tone voice-especially near your child.

We are given one life, let’s set up the next generation of hunters for success by being better at communicating with each other.

Your child and significant other will thank you.

Hunting Different States

Driving long distances to your hunting destination and dark chocolate

Ever have to drive a far distance to get to your hunting destination?

Ever get tired because you are driving late into the night?

One of the things that I find fascinating is that by being strategic with what we consume, we can alleviate some of the tiredness we may feel.

One of those ways is by consuming dark chocolate.

Dark chocolate contains plant compounds that may counteract vascular impairment after sleep deprivation and restore working memory due to better blood flow and regulation of blood pressure.

Aka dark chocolate makes you feel not as tired!

To be able to consume food that can improve how our brain functions during a crucial time such as driving to our hunting destination, could be a better option than an energy drink for example that gives you premature fight or flight responses that age your heart.

My personal favorite is 90% Lindt dark chocolate.

In general, I would encourage you to aim for 80% dark chocolate or greater.

This ensures there are fewer unnecessary ingredients added to it.

To be honest, dark chocolate could help a lot of other people who could be battling sleep deprivation due to their profession or lifestyle.

People such as:

  • Parents
  • EMT
  • Pilot
  • Police
  • Firefighters
  • Military
  • Nurses
  • Construction Workers
  • Business owners who travel frequently

So, open up a nice dark chocolate bar while you are on the road to your next hunt.

It may not have the golden ticket, but it may help you feel less tired so you can drive safer and feel more energized.
