Genius Hour Reflections

My partner Kuldish and I have been researching and trying out different techniques to overcome our fears from reptiles such as snakes. We realized that self-help is a much better technique than hypnosis. Self-help lets you control yourself and deal with your own emotions, while hypnosis allows another person to control you and your emotions. Kuldish and I watched many videos to help us understand that snakes and other reptiles will not cause harm to us. One of the videos we watched were  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXFofP-xcts this video helped Kuldish and I, to have a better understanding of reptiles and there behavior, also that there is nothing to worry about when it comes to handling reptiles. By watching these videos Kuldish and I realized that we only think of reptiles as dangerous things because we hear and see things that tell us they are but actually they are harmless.  Together we are still trying many other techniques until we actually go visit the reptile center, when the time comes Kuldish and I will be prepared to overcome one of our biggest fears.
