- 10:42Beyond Concrete | Isabella Oriza Martínez | TEDxPrepas La Salle Bajio YouthIn my TED Talk, I share how spending time in nature has helped me feel better and live a happier life. Ever since I was a child, I noticed that being outside made me feel calmer and more focused. Later on, I discovered that science supports this. Studies show that nature helps reduce stress, slow down our heart rate, and improve how our brain functions. I also talk about the concept of biophilia, which means that we, as humans, have a natural connection to nature and living things. Unfortunately, many of us now spend most of our time indoors and in front of screens, which can increase stress and reduce our happiness. Through my personal experiences and simple examples, I encourage others to reconnect with nature. Even small moments like walking in a park or watching the sunset can make a big difference. My message is clear: nature is good for us, and we should make it a part of our everyday lives. My passion for the topic of the TED Talk didn't come from a textbook, but from seeing and experiencing things myself. I've seen how a walk in the woods can calm even the most restless mind, how touching the earth can spark a hidden creativity, and how just looking at a landscape can refresh our sense of what we're here for. My goal isn't just to share information, but to get people to see things differently. I want each of us to realize how much power nature has to change us, and to actively look for that connection in our daily lives. Because, when we understand how nature affects us, we can learn to live a more fulfilling, balanced, and harmonious life.

- 13:21My True Essence | Valeria Nicole Vargas Aguirre | TEDxPrepas La Salle Bajio YouthDon’t you sometimes feel like everyone around you isn’t genuine? Like if you were just meeting the same person over and over again. Well, you are not alone, and I want you to feel safe and seen in my talk. Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve been amazed every time I see a person wearing a unique outfit, just like if they were the only human being on Earth. Everyone knows confidence is key, but how can I be confident when no one around me seems to understand me? This and many other questions will be answered and analyzed in my talk. See it as a deep talk with a very good and intimate friend, and feel free to let yourself be. My name is Nicole Vargas, and I’ve always been a creative and curious girl. I love art, fashion, and everything about self-expression. Since I was young, I wanted to learn about art, books, and the whole world. Now I'm really excited to share my ideas with the youth and help them to love themselves and explore within their brains and bodies.

- 10:15Choose Your Beliefs | Roberto García Pérez | TEDxPrepas La Salle Bajio YouthA single moment—a car crash—unraveled a quiet chain of events I hadn’t noticed before. It wasn’t just about impact or error, but the invisible threads that wove the path to that second. Some were patterns, others were chance. In tracing them back, there are two concepts that could explain how moments and decisions often echo deeper structures or fleeting chaos. This talk is not about blame or luck, but about the strange dance between order and unpredictability that shapes our lives. Through my story, we’ll explore how the lines between cause and coincidence are often blurrier than they seem. I'm Roberto García Pérez, I'm a high school student on Mathematical physical and this choice was influenced by a TED speaker, Roger Antonsen, that TED talk really inspired me to set path for my life, I like public-speaking and with this opportunity I think I will be able to inspire people find their life-oath.
