- When a psychologist who studies well-being ends up with a brain tumor, what happens when she puts her own research into practice? Christina Costa goes beyond the "fight" narrative of cancer -- or any formidable personal journey -- to highlight the brain benefits of an empowering alternative to fostering resilience in the face of unexpected challenges: gratitude.

I am being treated for my 4th cancer since 2011. I always thank the receptionists, the weigh-in nurse, the HaemOnc nurses, the techs, and the doctors who are just as Christina describes them: smart, caring, competent, humorous. I am not religious, but these folks are my angels. They have my undying trust, thanks, and GRATITUDE.
I grew up loving nature and eventually considered myself an environmentalist - it got exhausting when everyone around me always framed everything as a fight. Eventually I stopped putting myself around people like that and found those who framed things as solutions and challenges. They’re usually pretty quiet, and busy, literally finding solutions and implementing them! Thank you for sharing this view point - more people need to hear about it!
can i join with you somewhere?
Busy and quiet finding solutions and in implementation...so true ! Not hanging out drinking, using drugs and complaining...
"A body is not a battlefield" 🙌
I taught high school and every Friday the first 15 minutes of class were spent on gratitude. In their notebooks they had a section for gratitude and they would write five things that occurred that week or that they felt that week, for which they were grateful. Then we went around the room and everyone shared one. I asked them to save their gratitude lists put them in their sock drawers and look at them again in 10 years. I hope that they did it.
This is such an amazing idea!! Not that the subject you were teaching wasn’t important, but this gratitude thing is absolutely life changing!!
This talk is a really beautiful reminder to stay grateful even in the hardest of circumstances. Made me tear up!
My gratitude for the day is to you:
I am thankful to you for sharing your incredible story and motivating me to look at the brighter side❤️
Everyone deserves to be loved. Love people regardless of their mental or physical condition ❤️❤️❤️
I giggled a little when she said she was grateful for nurses who got the IVs in first try, I love how she managed to connect us with her experience and not only that recognize the lightness in those moments as well. Showing that she’s living and prospering not waiting to do so. So powerful and beautiful she even regarded all sides of feelings during moments like this or huge feelings. Totally a work of art :)
This is why it is so important to have empathetic health professionals, it is hard to feel gratitude when you feel like things are being done to you rather than feeling you are being cared for.
Made me tear up. My cousin went through brain cancer at 19. Gratitude is everything no matter the condition. Love is such a more powerful energy to heal your self with. God bless you on your journey🙏🏼💖😇
After some bad things happened in my life, I also had to teach myself gratitude in order to be able to move on, it's one of my main goals now to always see thee good in order to support myself. This should be applied everyday in every case, maybe also taught in school? I want a world full of this king of people!
"If your life is more simple, then you are able to experience it more fully and more happily. If your mind is not constantly caught up in striving after things or chasing romance or trying to acquire wealth and advantage, you can begin to experience gratitude.
...
This is a whole different way of being with life. It is being with life. Instead of racing through life trying to fulfill your wish list, you are now being with life."
A quote from *Joy and Gratitude* - a teaching from *The New Message from God*
Thank you for this!
Wow, I really love this. I find myself resonating whenever I come across material from Marshall Summers. I really need to find out more about this wonderful, yet mysterious man. Thank you!
Love this !!!
Thanks Ivan
🙏
I could really feel your gratitude towards the medical team. What a beautiful and important message that you shared with people!
I'm grateful for the message that you brought to me, and thank you so much 🙏❤️
Thank you. You have reminded me We have much to be grateful for, start focusing on that. I am going to start. Story is inspiring
Dr. Costa is the most amazing professor I have had in my years of undergrad. She has such an amazing story and is truly the best professor I have ever had. So inspiring!
HUGE message for all. You're an inspiration and everything you said is True. I know it from personal experience. You got this, Christina. God bless and happy healing🙏💕
Such a beautiful approach to life🥺♥️
Gratitude is a powerful force! I have spent the last several years focusing on all the great things going on in my life. (Daily) gratitude and thanksgiving has changed my life. I have spend at least 20 years of my life on depression medication. I no longer take these kinds of drugs. Life is precious and God is so faithful to help us move forward to a new and compelling future.
Thank you for a amazing positive teaching. I was healed by my Father in heaven after colon cancer st3.
What I can relate to is a positive attitude. Chemo was not easy but it was a process I had to go through and thinking about it now, it never felt part of me. I always went for chemo with a smile, enjoying the wonderful company of medical staff. I know it is not that I was in control but Jesus, my Healer was. All praise to Him. I will definitely start blowing a kiss to my brain, dayly❤
Thank you for sharing your journey to awareness and current practices of gratitude, Christina, and everyone commenting here.
I've been instilling more gratitude practices from the book The Magic by Rhonda Byrne in my days and nights as well. I'd like to share two from the book, especially for channeling the magic of gratitude to physical well-being: Heart Magic and Magical Health. Feel grateful deeply like it's radiating from every beat of your heart. Give thanks for every organ and body part for its function and what each and everyone of them allows you to do.
Thank you for another beautiful, healthy day! :)
I so needed to hear this perspective. I am sick of being told I’m a fighter and to keep fighting. Thank you ❤
Beautiful 🥲 thank you for sharing. I forget to be grateful some times even though there is so much in and around me to be grateful for. I will pick up my gratitude journal again 🙏🏼 thanks to you!
Thank you Christina Costa. I am grateful that you took the time to share this with us. You have taught me a great deal today.

You're truly gifted by the god or the spirit whatever you may believe in you definitely have it figured out and you think you're a survivor by many parts and you have much to teach people I'm very empathic so this brought me to tears and so much gratitude what I've been through I've had a traumatic cancer injury I'd passed away for quite a long time and pass the limit but I'm here and I've done better in the last 10 years and I ever would have so I'm very grateful for everything I have right now you have no idea I understood what you're saying I just need to kiss my brain now thank you

You are a superb human being and you will be a resilient person that I could quote refer my patients to learn from you! My positive thoughts for your well being!
This is definitely a great Ted Talk and will deserve more views! Wonderful!
Thank you so much. You are truly amazing.
In everything give thanks.
This human being has gone so much into psychology that she became a devoted Buddhist without becoming a devoted Buddhist. I guess all paths lead to the same truth. It just has different names.
Thank you for sharing your journey with me!
A beautiful message. Thank you. I have personally expunged religion from my life, however, so as not to throw the baby out with the bath water, I regularly practice one exercise that has, over several decades now, become indispensable to me. I regularly meditate upon gratitude. Like in the lyrics of an old Crowded House song, which a dearly departed friend of mine introduced me to many years ago, I remind myself often that I will love this life, even though I may never know why. And I will -as best as I can hope to be able- try to be sure that my very last thought, upon my very last breath, before I leave this mystery I’ve no memory of having ever requested in the first place, is the simple essence of gratitude. Because the way I see it, if there truly is another realm beyond this mortal world wherein I should hope to meet a divine and benevolent creator who might yet allow me a second life hereafter, it seems only naturally incumbent upon me to have already expressed by then my sincerest gratitude for the first one. -Phill, Las Vegas
Im greatful that you shared this with us, greatful that TED gave you a platform to do so and greatful that the universe is so wonderfully ironic ♡

Top TED Lesson 4Change. How much can we do with our limited BRAIN-POWER? No limit
Thank you much. Refuah Shalayma, (complete recovery, in Hebrew)
Its great that youve figured out how gratitude affects the brain positively. But this gratitude is deserved by the One who created you, your brain, who guided you towards this positivity despite your troubling situation.
Allahu Akbar Kabeerah wAlhamdulillahi Kaseera!

@@feathers8529 I don’t think I understand your response. Can you explain?
@@PhoebeFayRuthLouise you don’t know the James Bond character Paul Forever Really Lies?
@@feathers8529 Oh, sorry, I haven’t watched any James Bond movies. Thanks for clarifying!
Amazing woman :)
أصحاب السعادة...
حضرات السيدات والسادة..
🟢 لقد تعلمنا من تجاربنا الأخيرة ما يحدث من إلحاق الضرر بالرفاهية في كل مكان
إذا ضعف النظام المالي في بلد واحد، وإذا أصيب شخص واحد بالإنفلونزا فسيعرض ذلك الجميع للخطر،
وإذا سعى بلد واحد وراء امتلاك السلاح النووي فسيزداد خطر وقوع هجوم نووي بالنسبة لكل الدول،
وعندما يمارس المتطرفون العنف في منطقة جبلية واحدة سيعرض ذلك الناس من وراء البحار للخطر.
أنقذ شعبنا!.
أنقذ كوكبنا 🌎🌏🌍 !!!.
بصحة جيدة دائما!
أشكرك.
😀🤭🤭.

If you think about it, it proves the principal of some religions to be true, such as Buddhism. Fun and inspiring speech and thank you for sharing!

QUESTION - can gratitude actually be viewed on various scans? Can we see differences in the brains of grateful people?
I had to watch this twice - based on the title and speaker credentials, I was hoping to see some analytical, quantitative measurements - is that possible?
Why is TED censoring Mikhailia Peterson’s talk?
God with you
Its called Letting Go.... Read David hawkins Book Letting Go.... its the only way. GREAT TALK!
It has come to a point that helping hands couldn’t save a permanently damaged brain with the mix-ups of the fallible thoughts.
VERY THAT!
