Most people think self-defence starts with throwing punches, but real survival starts in your head. In this episode of The Timeline of Self-Defence, we’re in the During phase with Faith Roswell, founder of Armour for Life in the UK. Faith teaches psychological self-defence — how to manage fear, think clearly, and make decisions that keep you alive when things go sideways. We talk about what’s really happening in your brain during violence and why freezing isn’t weakness. Faith shares how to use your awareness, body language, and environment to take back control, plus a real story from her own life about staying smart under pressure. You’ll learn: • What “freeze” really is and how to move through it • How to control tunnel vision and see the full picture • How to make decisions in seconds under pressure • The difference between posture, threat, and real danger • When to disengage, when to fight, and when to flee If you’ve ever wondered how your mind and body react in real danger, this episode breaks down the psychology of survival in a way anyone can use.
