Self- Defense, Safety, Awareness and Self Protection can be seen a synonymous. While this is mostly true there are also some aspects that can be taken from each that truly are different. We will explore the mental and physical side of what happens to the human body during times of duress and stress and how we can expect our own bodies to react.
