I found the course quite enlightening. Laurie Santos was an excellent lecturer. The integration of video lectures, interactive talks with Yale students, and practical exercises brought the concepts to life. The course provided me with the tools to integrate what we learned and make lifestyle changes towards a happier life.

The Course journey was really fabulous. When we have growth and positive mind sets we can do the things. We can shape our environment to get rid of negativity. i am feeling extremely good now as i am doing the things that were very much fascinating to me.
A big thanks to Prof. Santos and Coursera for this lovely course.

If i put in the honest effort to rewire, and made a concerted effort to alter my daily routine, things changed. This WORKS and has reminded me to take the time to savor life... it is the journey, indeed. This reminds us of the science behind how we travel the journey. Well worth the effort. Thanks for sharing, Coursera!

Actually, I am really grateful and proud of doing the course. I feel grateful that I could have the opportunity to learn about a great topic from someone who has become an expert on it. I feel proud of myself for keeping going and finishing being a better person or at least a more conscious one than I was before doing it.

I loved this course. Laurie was a great online tutor. The course was flexible and fitted into the time I had available and was broken down into manageable sections. I will certainly be implementing what I have learnt over the last 10 weeks and I have already told my friends about the course and suggested they look it up.

A great course for anyone who is interested in finding out how to claim the most out of their life. It can be taken at any stage of learning. For someone who coaches others on how to find joy in their every day lives, it is great to get some scientific knowledge to back up the intrinsic and intuitve areas of my teachings.

Lorrie is an amazing teacher who fully involved herself in the practise of this course as much as us students. I found the information and lectures to be very helpful to understand the way the brain works and why it works in the control of our minds. How and why we have these thoughts, feelings, bad days, depression, etc.

I took this course with my son (a high school sophomore) and found it really valuable. Not just the lectures, student Q&A and assignments but the dialog we had together. The day he hit 'pause' on a lecture to initiate one of those conversations made me realize he was really taking the information he was learning to heart.

The learning format was new to me. I was able to work on my own and the course/assignments were fitting my expectations. I learned new concepts and techniques that I intend to use throughout my life. I have been happier overall and my family have even taken notice. I would have to say that this course is a success for me.

Professor Laurie really helps me demystify what makes up happier and how brain tricks me to things that don't make me happy. I appreciate her efforts to make this course and Yale to make it free for everyone to learn. I'm continue practicing techniques I learned from this course and hope my peace of mind is always with me

The material presented in the course is great, true to human wisdom and re-wirement challenges are designed to increase overall well-being with our consent. I find great relief in fact that we've got problems, but the solutions are also with us. We have to act in the right direction which are shown throughout the course.

Life-changing. My happiness scores went up 29% and 41%. Take your time and do NOT rush through this course - really let the contents sink in, and even read the articles mentioend if you can. This was one of if not the best investments of time I made in 2022. I will use the contents I learned here for the rest of my life.

The layout and pace of this course is wonderfully thought out, with the added layer of being able to go at my own pace should something come up in my life. It has been an amazing look into how to balance my life and care for myself in order to bring that balance and happiness to the people I love and the tasks that I do.

This course was well worth the time. Learning the science behind the happiness was much more that just believing in the power of positive thinking. This course really taught you what we think will make us happy and what actually does make us happy. Professor Santos is wonderful and i am listening to her podcasts also.

It's one thing to know that certain things might make you feel happy, and by extension make your relationships with others around you better, but it's another thing to see and hear the research behind how all of it works. And that it really does work. I loved this course and am so glad that I spent the time to take it!
