A great balance of science/theory with real-life and tangible activities/ideas that you can put into practise in your day to day life. It increased not only my knowledge of well-being and happiness, but also genuinely increased my own feelings of well-being and happiness.

Thank you! This course has been helping get my happiness back by redirecting my thought process by my daily actions and by adjusting some of my daily habits.
So worth the time, which was not really that much time to commit to in order to find a better sense of well-being.

The course was engaging, the activities are meaningful and engages the learner in a great deal of self-reflection. I think it helped me to understand that I keep moving the "happiness" goalpost, it is alway just out of reach. The professor is terrific, very easy going.

Laurie was so down to earth and easy to listen and follow along with. I did feel any pressure in this course at all which is amazing for someone that knows nothing about the college life. I feel very accomplished and I'm very thankful that we were given this opportunity.

I would recommend this course to anybody regardless of their age, profession or life situation. In 10 weeks, you not only learn about your biases and misconceptions about happiness, but you also learn how to form new habits, and you get the tools to stick to your plans.
