Part 2 - Confidence
Use confident body language
In order to avoid being seen as a potential victim, it is important to
project a strong, confident body language. Hold your head up when you
walk down the street and walk with a sense of purpose. Be alert to what
is happening around you.
Breathe steadily if there is an encounter
In the event of an encounter with an assailant, it is useful to inhale
and exhale deeply so as avoid the tendency to freeze. Breathing steadily
will help you to focus. A woman has to quickly make an assessment of the
situation and decide upon a strategy. If she has thought about what she
is going to do/say in a situation like this before it happens, so much
the better. But she will have to decide what to do based on her
circumstances and the person/persons confronting her.
