Magnificent!
Clear and concise revelations about the human condition, how to understand the tricky nature of our minds and practical advice about how to counteract those deceptions.
Marvellous.!

I enjoyed taking this class. It helped me begin a daily meditation practice and provided me with the tools I needed to succeed with this goal. It was a very beneficial class to and it gave me something else to focus on during this time of being more isolated.

Getting to know Dr. Santos has been highly inspiring since this was the perfect time for me to think about applying the science of psychology.

Simplesmente maravilhoso, une teoria e prática, com muitas fontes de vídeos e leituras, que só fazem a gente querer se aprofundar ainda mais nos temas debatidos. Laurie é uma ótima professora e continuo a seguindo no desdobramento do curso, em seus podcasts.

I absolutely loved this course! I have already read a lot of books around hapiness and well-being. This course however brought me even more concrete theory around how our brain works and how to rewire. I keep on referring to it in my various interactions.

this class was excellent. I was surprised to find out that I am already doing most of the healthy practices for a "good life". I completed an MBA online and the organization of this class through coursera was ten fold better than the MBA program I completed.

I thoroughly enjoyed this 10-week course. It was the best investment of my time during the COVID19 shutdown in Australia. The program was easy to follow, engaging and the skills and knowledge I've learn are invaluable. I am a happier person and I thank you.

This course is very enlightening of true happiness indicators and tools to increase happiness levels. Professor Santos' teaching style makes it easy to stay engaged during the lectures. This course was very informative for how short the actual lectures were.

I loved this course. And it actually changes you for sure (only if you are willing to do what it takes ;)
The professor kept the lectures very fun and short so people don't get bored through it. I love the quizes to check if you paid attention to the lecture.

Thank you Laurie for offering this course. I enjoyed 'relearning' the idea of happiness. I did my senior thesis from my study abroad program on happiness and it was nice to revisit those memories and add new ones from your course.
Thanks again,

So grateful to be given this opportunity to take the time to discover what is in me. Always so busy taking care of everyone else this allowed me to take time to rediscover what I am so grateful for. Thanks Laurie Santos and Yale for a wonderful experience!

I have learnt more than enough within just a short period of time. With numerous empirical studies, understanding is made so simple. I am so happy to be a part of this course especially in a moment in history where happiness is almost becoming an illusion.

This course (which I found advertised by chance) offered me a greater chance on increased happiness. I learned more every step of the way. Thank you to Laurie Santos for all that she and others put into developing this course on the science of well-being.
