Within Yourself
One of the most important areas to focus on for most people who want to feel safer is yourself. As long as you feel safe within yourself, you are going to feel safe wherever you go, no matter what the conditions are. But if you are not feeling safe within yourself, you might struggle
to feel good no matter the conditions. There are a lot of ways to feel internally safer. One is to develop a general healthy sense of self-esteem and confidence. That helps to boost you and bolster you in a way nothing else quite can. You might also want to think about focusing on the things that you are good at, your strengths, and in particular any that relate to your sense of safety and security.
In Your Neighborhood
If you live somewhere that you might not call entirely safe, then you will want to know what you can do to feel safer there. It might be challenging to do that, but as long as you are happy to work at it you should find that you are going to be able to make some improvement here. It’s worth looking into some urban survival tips too, as that way you will have the practical means to actually know how to defend yourself, wherever it is that you might happen to live. This is a real means of ensuring that you are going to feel considerably safer when you are in your home neighborhood.
At Home
You would hope that you can feel safe in the home at least, even if nowhere else. After all, it is the one place that you want to just be able to relax, and if you don’t feel you can do that you might find that you are going to struggle to feel safe in the home. It’s wise to avoid doing anything that makes it more likely you will be a victim, such as making it obvious you have something of great value, or keeping doors unlocked. Be sensible, keep everything locked down, and you will feel a lot more secure. It’s wise to have whatever protection you feel is relevant in order to feel as safe as possible in your own home.
