  • This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Happiness, success, health - we all strive toward a life full of meaning. But when we face obstacles, how do we move forward? Dr. Greg Eells outlines exactly what it means to build resilience in our lives.
    Greg Eells holds a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology and is a licensed psychologist in the State of New York. He has worked in higher education mental health for 20 years and has served as a director of a university counseling service for the past 16 years. He currently serves as the Director of Counseling and Psychological Services at Cornell University. Dr. Eells regularly publishes articles in scholarly journals and presents frequently. His areas of interest include leadership, staff morale, mental health delivery systems, and providing care to challenging students. He is a member of various professional organizations, is the Chair of the Mental Health Section of the American College Health Association (ACHA) and a past president of the Association for University and College Counseling Center Directors (AUCCCD). He has been a strong advocate for college mental health issues appearing on CNN, ABC News and National Public Radio. He lives in Ithaca, NY with his wife and three children.
    About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

    I'm so sad about the news of Greg's passing. Heartbroken for him and his family. He made an incredible impact on Cornell students during his time here and he'll be missed

    Sometimes the hardest person to counsel is yourself, rest in peace, Doc.

    I watched this after reading about Dr. Eells passing, and he seemed so vibrant and engaging
    just goes to show you can never take someone at face value, as they may still be hurting inside.......how mysterious human nature is, and blessed at same time

    Resilience is important for everyone’s mental health but also for their physical, emotional and spiritual health. It’s a life skill that once it is developed will serve us very well until the end of this current human journey. It is thought that the more resilient a person is, the less they experience stress as they are equipped to deal with life’s pressures.

    I learned so much from this man about emotional acceptance and pursuing what really matters in life. He was a kind man who listened to everyone, no matter what their "title" was, and worked tirelessly on behalf of our students at Cornell. He will be missed but am grateful that he has left us with many lessons on how to BE better.

    As a Victims Advocate and dealing with years and years of abuse, I’ve come to realize those that have dealt with any form of abuse *WE ARE EXTREMELY RESILIENT* be kind to yourself and to others. God Bless all who read this. 😘

    This was a very good man. I would love our world to celebrate men who can love and help others in this kind of way. It takes a huge heart and mind to spend a lifetime helping others. If every single person reading this just reaches out to a few people every day, maybe this wouldn't happen. Let's never confuse resiliency with not getting effective help. If someone is resilient that doesn't mean they're safe from harm, it just means they have the capacity to get through tough times. But some tough times are insurmountable. We need to have compassion for others and self-compassion for ourselves when we're going through tough times. But for effective safety, please call 911 to save a life.

    We focus so much on winning we don't teach people how to fail - and more importantly how to recover. Thanks for this. Great energy!

      Without taking shelter in the Supreme Lord one does not have real shelter when things get tough.
