Awareness is your first line of defense. Always be alert !
Self Defense is the single most overlooked , yet most important part of our lives.
Predators look for easy prey, are they looking at you ?
The following advice should always be on your mind.
Remember, you are not alone and you may be watched at any time.
Attitude:
Do not look like a victim. Your body language tells people a lot about you, keep your shoulders back and walk with your head up. Be alert, look and feel confident no matter where you are.
Be aware:
Always know your surroundings. Walk or drive observing everything around you, and make use of your peripheral vision.
If walking or standing as someone passes you or looks at you, make only brief eye contact, do not stare at them but continue to be observant to their actions.
When shopping or in public, remember you are not alone, know who is watching you and trust your instincts, if something feels wrong.
Have a plan:
It always amazes me how many people have told me their escape plan for a fire , right down to saving the family pet. However, when asked about what to do when confronted with a violent situation, they do not have an answer.
Rehearse in your mind what to do in an emergency!
Never drop your guard in public and remember to put your safety first.
Never go out alone, and always tell someone where you are going.
