It\u2019s a new year, and you\u2019re all set for washboard abs and a watertight budget. This year, every calorie and every cent will be counted. You\u2019ll do a thousand steps and spend an hour in the gym every day, eat five small meals and dedicate twenty minutes to meditation to round off your daily wellness routine.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, personal security can\u2019t be quantified. You can\u2019t do ten reps of alarm system or four sets of vigilance. What you can <\/i>do, however, is apply the principles of personal wellness to ensure a more secure 2019 for you and your loved ones<\/strong>. Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n

Have a balanced diet<\/b><\/p>\n

Just like your body needs nutrients from different food groups, so different security systems can work together<\/strong> to provide holistic peace of mind and address a variety of potential threats. For example, combining a gate motor<\/strong> with a GSM system<\/a> means that you can control access while simultaneously monitoring the gate status, alarm and even the electric fence, depending on how the system has been set up.<\/p>\n

Get active<\/b><\/p>\n

We all know that working out has countless benefits from both a physical and mental health perspective. It\u2019s good for your muscles and bones, can help prevent chronic illness and has even been proven to elevate mood<\/a>, possibly due to increased blood flow to the brain as well as the release of endorphins, which are the body\u2019s \u201cfeel-good\u201d hormones.<\/p>\n

When it comes to security, you can be more active by joining a community policing forum (CPF) and becoming actively involved in your community\u2019s – as well as your own – safety. You can also exercise <\/i>vigilance by reporting suspicious activity, changing your routine (for example by taking a different route to work every other day) and keeping a list of emergency numbers on speed dial.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t forget your greens!<\/b><\/p>\n

Leafy greens such as spinach and kale are important sources of iron, a mineral that plays a key role in the production of oxygen-carrying red blood cells. Getting enough iron in your diet not only promotes physical strength and endurance, but can boost your immune system and help fight off illness and infections.<\/p>\n

Green also happens to be the colour of our world-famous gate motors<\/strong>, which are designed to fight off a different kind of intruder. With a variety of high-security features<\/strong> including passive infrared automatic closing, time-barring of inputs and built-in Intruder-detection Alarms, CENTURION gate motors form an integral part of a healthy access control diet.<\/p>\n

To summarise, here are a few key tips for a more secure 2019:<\/p>\n
