Whether you are staying at home with family and friends or heading outdoors these Christmas Holidays you should consider your personal safety.
It and can be as simple as being aware of your surroundings and body language.
- Display an air of confidence, try to appear comfortable in your surroundings
- Your body language demonstrates your confidence so stand tall and walk with a purpose
An awareness of your surroundings will enable you to be more alert to possible dangers and also identify places or people who may be able to provide assistance if required.
- Trust and act on your instincts, if you feel unsafe remove yourself from the source of potential danger regardless of whether the person is known to you or not
Lastly develop a personal safety plan and have a safety network. Make sure that if you are going away you tell someone trusted where you are going, your expected travel route and when you expect to return.
Wishing you all a very happy and safe Christmas Holiday!
