About this book
You don't need a medical degree to learn first aid and CPR. You need a clear, honest path to practice the basics and build muscle memory. This guide is that path — a 10-day plan designed for absolute beginners who want to try this skill without committing to a full course or buying expensive equipment up front.
Each day gives you one concrete task: practicing compressions on a rolled-up blanket, timing yourself on a phone, learning where to press on a casualty's chest, and running a full scenario by day 8. There's no fluff, no inspirational slogans, and no pretending you'll master emergencies in a week and a half. There are honest milestones, troubleshooting for the mistakes every beginner makes, and a reality check on what 10 days can and cannot teach you.
By day 10, you'll know how to respond to the most common emergencies, what it truly takes to get certified, and whether continuing this skill is worth your time and money.

★★★★★I've been meaning to learn CPR for years but always got overwhelmed by the certification courses. This guide made day one simple — I just needed a blanket and my own hands. By day 3 I was timing my compressions on my phone, and by day 8 I ran a whole practice scenario without freezing up. It's honest about limits too, which I appreciated. I'm signing up for a real class now, but I feel way less scared going in.

★★★★★I bought this on a whim and was skeptical about the 10-day promise. But day one really is just about learning where to press and getting comfortable touching a practice dummy — which I made from a rolled-up blanket. The day 7 milestones table was a reality check; I wasn't as fast as I wanted, but I knew exactly what to fix. If you're on the fence about first aid, this is the least pushy, most concrete way to try it.
