Loved the practical "rewiring" assignments that helped me with understanding what really makes us happy. Not only this course changed my life perspective but enriched the lives of the people around me

Fabulous course. I learned a lot of does and doesn't make us happy, and learned valuable tools for introducing and integrating new habits into my life that will definitely contribute to my well-being.

Dr. Laurie shared practical tips that we can implement in our daily lives and also discussed the science behind why these work. The course structure is very well designed and engaging. This was such a helpful and insightful course.

The course was really great, I got so many new insights! The only thing I did not like was that other students graded my assignment since one of them wrote really stupid stuff and just wanted to show off and so I had to do it again.

It is a highly recommended course. I just have to say that it really changed my life and made me do a deep introspection about my life and if I was really happy. My life in these 10 weeks has changed in a way that I did not imagine.

Fantastic! Now I am much more aware of what makes me happy. From grading exercises I became very impressed by all the work others put into the course to change their lives. Yes, I did, too. I strongly recommend the course to others.

One of the most in-demand courses at Yale University, this course will change your mind on how you perceive your happiness versus how science perceives your happiness. You might be surprised at the things that should make you happy.

Absolutely brilliant - easy to do, simple exercises with long lasting effects!
And I say this as a retired psychiatrist who started the course with an interest in the science and ended it fully engaged with the process and exercises.

This is an interesting course that gave me a good understanding of what makes people happy. As knowledge is only half the battle, the course teaches useful techniques to achieve happiness and an assignment to put them into practice.

Very interesting and in the end very helpful for my personal as well as professional life, though I still think a lot of the research in psychology can be influenced by many factors the researchers do not / cannot take into account.
