Q: Our brains create new connections some of them related to memory while we sleep. Getting enough sleep can therefore help you overcome some short-term memory loss. You should get at least 8 hours every night, and you should try to go to sleep and get up at the same time every day. Make sure you avoid any sort of stimulants - like caffeine - 30 minutes before bedtime. These can keep you awake. Don't eat fatty, spicy, or heavy food before you sleep. They can cause heartburn, which can either keep you awake or wake you up. Avoid those types of food 2 to 3 hours before bed. Avoid using electronics in bed. The light that comes from the screens of phones, tablets, and laptops can make your brain think it's daytime, which can keep you awake. Being physically active contributes your body's overall health. And if you're generally healthy, your memory can improve. You should get 30 minutes of activity each day, whether that's walking, going for a run, or taking an exercise class. If you can't get up and exercise for whatever reason, consider stationary exercises. Fruits, vegetables, and whole grains are as good for your brain as they are for your body. Add some low-fat protein, like chicken, and plenty of water to your diet, too. You might find that the cleaner you eat, the clearer your memory is. For breakfast, try a bowl of mixed fruit and a hard-boiled egg or two. You can also have coffee or tea, but don't put too much creamer in either. A sandwich with lots of veggies and lean protein like sliced chicken or turkey, on whole wheat bread, is a great lunch idea. So is a salad. For dinner, try grilled or baked chicken or fish, and a heaping side of vegetables. There are plenty of health conditions that can affect your short-term memory, including depression, high blood pressure, and thyroid problems. Make sure you take the medication you're supposed to, since untreated health conditions can contribute to short-term memory loss. If you are taking your medicine regularly and you start to notice changes in your short-term memory, talk to your doctor. Some medications can interfere with your memory, and how you react to them might change over time. Learning how to meditate means learning how to ignore everyday distractions. People who mediate often find that even when they're not meditating, they're able to focus better. Give yourself 10 minutes a day to sit in a quiet room and meditate. You can learn to meditate in a lot of different ways. There are smartphone apps that lead you through meditations. There are also lots of YouTube videos that do the same. If you find that your short-term memory loss interferes with your ability to live your daily life, see your doctor. Short-term memory loss can indicate other serious health issues, and your doctor can help identify and treat them.
A: Get enough sleep. Stay active. Eat a healthy diet. Manage health conditions. Meditate. Talk to your doctor if you're worried.

Q: Many states and areas require you to take a mandatory course in hunter's safety before you can be issued a hunting license, especially when hunting with a gun. Be sure you comply with all regulations, or else you could be fined or suffer other legal consequences, like incarceration. Depending on the area in which you live, you may be able to hunt some animals, like small game, without a permit as long as you adhere to your region's hunting regulations. While you are hunting, an accident might occur that may require medical attention, or you might have to spend the night in the elements waiting for help to arrive. Don't be caught unprepared. Make sure you have: Extra daily medication (e.g. insulin, blood pressure pills, etc.). Cell phone or two way radio (in waterproof case). Appropriate clothing for changeable weather (rain gear, etc.). Lighters/fire starters. Metal cup. Waterproof light source (e.g. headlamp). Whistle or signaling device. Emergency shelter (e.g. space blanket). Survival knife. First aid kit. Emergency rations (granola, meal replacement bars, etc.). Map and compass. There will be different methods for hunting the game you choose to as prey. Ambush hunting, stalking, and hound hunting are popular methods employed to hunt various prey. You will need to research your prey to decide upon the most effective style. If you plan to hunt from a portable tree stand, you will want to be familiar with carrying and climbing with it before your hunt. The same applies for fashioning a blind, or for the procedure for stalking game. Your prey will likely have an ideal habitat. Here you will have a better chance of finding your prey while you hunt. Research the ideal habitat of your prey, paying attention to notes about migration and yearly changes in behavior, and find some locations near you where you can hunt your game. Hunting on public land is legal, so long as it is not in violation of state, federal or regional restriction, you have the proper licenses, and you are following state, federal or other applicable hunting regulations.
A:
Take necessary safety courses. Purchase a license, if necessary. Put together emergency supplies. Choose your tactic. Practice your hunting tactic. Choose a location.
