Lesson Overview

10.24 – Staying Safe When You’re Home Alone: Being alone at home should bring peace, not fear. Start by locking doors, closing blinds at night, and keeping emergency contacts visible. Avoid posting your solitude online or sharing schedules publicly. Let one trusted person know when you expect to check in. Use timers for lights or background sound to make the home feel occupied. Keep phones charged and flashlights accessible in case of outages. Confidence grows when routines are predictable and protective. Learn simple defense tactics or keep a whistle nearby for reassurance. The more prepared you feel, the less anxious isolation becomes. Alone time transforms from vulnerability into empowerment when safety steps are consistent. Independence thrives when comfort and caution coexist harmoniously.
