Default Avoiding an Accidental Gybe - suggestions please

Does anyone have any recommendations for rigs to prevent an accidental gybe.
My boat is a 34 foot sloop.
Having just had the scariest experience of my life taking my unconscious
brother in law to casualty this weekend following a boom/head incident, I'm
keen never to repeat the experience.
Bye the way - bottom line is concentration lapsed and I took my eye off the
changing wind direction but something to restrain the boom in future would
be reassuring.
