How do we overcome our fears? Contrary to popular belief, Lily Martin says you can’t. At a young age, she had to face one of her worst fears: needles. Rather than overcoming her fear, Lily learned how to cope with it by hacking her amygdala. In this TED Talk, she explains how you can, too. Lily Martin is a sophomore at Saint Andrew’s School. She is a driven student who especially enjoys learning about chemistry, artificial intelligence, and the stock market. Lily gave this talk in hopes of helping others gain a better understanding of the scientific aspects of why we have fears and what we can do to cope with them. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
I think she was nervous during this speech
but she did a really amazing job'
Wonderful speech. She faced down the fear of public speaking, to tell the story of her overcoming the fear of needles, to speak to the topic of fear itself.
Listen young lady you brought profound awareness to this 57 year old lady LOL! The ending when you spoke of Batman was astounding to me and I LOVE your concept of how we don't overcome fear we just learn how to face it and work through it in spite of it made so much sense to me! I've never heard it said like that and it makes so much more to me than trying to work hard to overcome something we can't because that wastes a whole lot of time!! What you just stated I'm going to do to face mine and just the thought of doing it your way brings immediate understanding and comfort so thank you so very much for your enlightenment!!!
Hhh

she seemed just slightly inexperienced with such presentations but she's obviously young and I figured still a college student or something like that, this isn't a criticism in any way though and it actually seems fitting; she shows maturity, determination to pass on important information and willingness to learn
good job, girl, hope you stay interested and continue to take action to do what you believe is good and necessary
She's 16 years old and a Junior in High School.
I wish I was doing this at 16. She’s great
Excellent video. She is talking about gradual exposure. Having a therapist trained in treating anxiety and trauma can help!
Thanks for your feedback.....for more guidance And making profit in CRYPTOCURRENCY INVESTMENT

♡ this,exposure to the fear over and over again helps me
This is the first time I'm watching ted talk this much early
She did well great presentation
Besides learning, to accept and face your fears. You can also go one step further, which is to accept the pain (in regards to fear of needles).
I learned this the hard way through the eighties barbaric dental practise. Back then, they would drill out an extensive amount of the tooth, even with the smallest holes/cavities. And i now have 7 amalgam fillings because of that.
I have a vivid memory of me lying there, being in agony of pain while they where drilling. Forcing my body down into the dentist-chair, while clamping/clutching down at the sides of the chair with my hands and with all my strength, and tensioning throughout my entire body, being to scared and in too much pain, to almost even breathe.
And then by instinct or intuition and by seemingly not having any other option to cope with, or to get out of the situation, i suddently did the opposite. I somehow accepted that i could´t get out of the situation, i accepted that i was in pain, and completely relaxed throughout my entire body, and relaxed my breath. It all happened instantaneously and while i was still in pain, it somehow wasn't as bad as before, and i understood that by relaxing my body and breath, and by accepting the situation and the pain, it somehow became bearable instead of unbearable.
One could suspect that those early experiences, could have given me a fear of dentist, but no. And most dentist are usually surprised of how well i manage the pain, compared with what they usually see.
Much needed at the moment .. thanku
Omgoodness her is a gorgeous young woman. She’s a sweetheart…..
She brought great insight, hope she's doing good. Can't really understand what anyone else is going through but I can feel ur pain.
Hey out there! Do you know fear and excitement has same hormones state level? Only difference is, in fear You think you better step back. And in excitement you think you better step forward. So which one thought you like to choose ? Being excited or being feared?...

That's really overblown by some pseudo news media info, in stress cortisol level is too high, during excitement cortisol and adrenaline levels are on the good enough level, not on overdrive. Difference is mainly because involuntary reaction leads to fear, voluntary should lead to less fear or to excitement but if you don't control situation cortisol is increased. it is not same at all.
That’s the thing with fear you don’t wana step forward to a point it paralyses you
This was a great talk! Lots of good and complete information. It was so good and informative that I listened to it twice and took very detailed notes. Great job! Thank you!! 👍👏👏👏

Really enjoyed this talk. Thanks!
Wow. An amazing video once again!
Thanks for this valuable video 🙏
The neuroscience and psychology is solid.
*_I don't have any fear. Give you my Vibes, it will cure you!_*
Great video.Thanks so much
When I was eight years old I was attacked by a dog, this accident planted fear in me for the rest of my life, now when I see a loose dog my heart beats harder and louder, it gets even worse if the dog starts to bark at me, at this moment my body will shake. guess I will do just like batman and start facing my fear by adopting a puppy; I think it will be impossible to fear a dog you raised yourself.

That's what eliminated my fear of dogs. Now if I could only raise and train a failure.
The fact you will raise a dog is already a step you will even slowly stop being scared even when they bite you when they play with you slowly you will lose that fear
I was attacked by a dog at 6 years old, but it didn't give me a fear of dogs. Something different happened to me not to be afraid, I guess it's because I absolutely love dogs that overruled my fear.
I used to have a fear of job interviews, once I left right before the interview. But I decided to love every job interview and now I do. I think I rewired the brain by loving something calmed to amygdala down.
Usually i find these kinds of videos 3 years after they’ve been published and wishing i found it earlier. I guess im on time now.

AMAZING
This is similar to dealing with addiction also
Very informative,
Interesting topic. I was searching for talks I could listen to while doing mundane chores around the house in preparation for facing the work I need to do later! The work I need to do causes serious almost paralyzing anxiety due to needing to read through documents filled with unpleasant subjects. So I'm prepping to hijack or hack my amygdala later on this evening. Thanks for the valuable insights! (Yes - talking about the fear helps too - hence this comment!)
Graded recitation.
A very intriguing perspective on how to embrace fear, by using physiological traits to get better...
I'm prepared 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
the more face your fear the lesser the effect of fear will be upon the body with each time you face it. at some point your brain will become immune to it
I dont think these comic books are dismissing fear, but promoting a control over fear(and emotions in general)
A truly courageous man/woman isnt free from fear, but those who have tamed their fear with the reins of reasoning
Ps: desensitization is a good method to mitigate the fight or flight reaction
As a Dune fan, I'm obliged to ask: Didn't the *Bene Gesserit **_Litany Against Fear_* work, or was it never tried?

Hellophobia, the fear to greet other people as we start our speech

I think she is also feeling some kind of fear
I can dare a lion in a cage, but would run from a cockroach
Interesting Sir
Interesting video to listen to. But a genuine feedback, maybe you can use real life examples of people instead of fictional characters like Batman.
“Batman who seems invincible” almost left at the lack of knowledge there lol
Hmm very witty
LMFAO what is she talking abt fr 😭
I'm afraid of women, now i'm Woman-Man, champion of incels.
Ohhh Kay, but she seemed terrified talking to an empty room but okay whatever

Hack? Is your Brain a computer? 🤣🤣
Brain is billion times far in hundreds+ of traits
Wait why is she on here ...she's a kid. Not qualified ...uggh
What's wrong with her voice and accent. Funny af
Hard to listen to while she was croaking! Fix the croak!
Utter short term nonsense coming from a member of the protected class.
So.. I guess you are living in a jungle with snakes around your neck... You must be one fearless icon of 2021..
All I smell is jealousy from this comment
@@kyupified2440 The presenter in this particular TH-cam video must apologise for misleading the viewers in the manner with which she has
She really isn’t presenting that well but don’t be too harsh at her.
@@PetraKann do you personally know her.. ?Your comments sounds personal..
Dude, to be honest, this is a bit too unnecessary.
why?
You don't know the situation of many people
Yes, and you don’t really know about the situation of others too
Why do you sound like you have just finished crying or are about to?
Very informative,
I think she is also feeling some kind of fear
