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.

wonderful course, very well put together, helped me to add a few tools to make sure that I can develop and sustain a healthy perspective on my personal happiness; course gave me a new appreciation of Eric Idle's song, "Always look on the bright side of life"...thank you.

Informational and thought-provoking class. Well-being is an important aspect of living a happy life. This course offers the skills and habits that are needed to understand the drivers of happiness and how to make them a consistent part of your life. Highly recommend it!

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.

This should be part of every school's curriculum. Thanks, Laurie. I deeply appreciate all the effort you put into it and how clearly your explanations were. This course has really made a difference in my life and some of the people around me to whom I've recommended it.

This course has given me so much happiness. I am much more aware of all the little things I am grateful for. I also learned to enjoy certain tasks I never did before such as exercise. I also know that I did many things right before I took this amazing course. Thank you.

This course has changed my outlook on life! I am so happy I did this course, especially through Covid-19.

I can't wait to continue to put into practice what I have learned and continue to improve my happiness and well-being!

Thank you so much Prof. Laurie Santos and team.

Hands-on and scientifically sound, a perfect course to follow online. A first-class teacher: smart, funny, knowledgeable. Fun to listen to and easy to follow the clear structure of reasoning. Further reading is useful and recent. Beware of reaching tangible benefits :-)

Great course that teaches you the science to happiness. The online line lectures are well done and very informative. The structure of the class is organized to engage the student and I recommend this course to learn about your self happiness and how you can help others.

A fantastic course - 10 weeks incredibly well spent. I now have new tools to help with my general well being that I can use and also share with other people in my life. My general happiness has also significantly improved - not bad during lockdown and a global pandemic!

As a student of human dynamics and human engineering, this course gives you a wonderful foundational understanding of what makes us tick and how to unlock a more happy and meaningful life. Kudos to Yale for offering this course and having the bravery to bring it public!

I really enjoyed taking this course, especially during this stressful time with the pandemic! There is a lot of good information. The course is self-paced and easy to follow. I learned to shift my priorities and focus on what is truly important and I am happier for it!

Incredibly helpful course, can really recommend doing it with a friend or partner. It has given me great tools and valuable information that is comprehensive and easy to apply every day. Thank you for the great teaching and tremendously positive impact Dr Laurie Santos.

I would like to thanks the professor for what teach us to open our eyes to see the fact, from this course i did learned a lot of things never see in my life before, so now i got a good experience. Thanks for everyone who made and achieve this course. My warm regards. :)

It is really a worth to do it. its give you immense pleasure and true picture of self evaluated and rectified yourself according to nature, environment, personal & professional growth. it is very good learning path to move on spiritual & material world both together.

such an amazing way to learn some knew information about well-being and things we can do to get better, grow and feel comfortable with who we are. grateful for picking up this course right before the world has upended and we all faced an unprecedented change. thank you.

This course is really helpful for me to overcome my pessimistic which hinder me from achieving happiness. Thank you that after this course I learn a lot about well-being especially happiness come from our self. We just need to learn and discover happiness within us !!

Excellent lectures and insights. This course helped me to understand myself and other people better. I was excited to learn about the mechanisms of happiness and the way we experience it. It's a course I would happily take again. Thank you, Coursera, thank you, Laurie.

This was a helpful and eye-opening course for me! It helped me align my priorities and push myself to develop habits that are actually good for my well-being. It's a course that everyone should take to become more aware of the things they can do to improve their lives.

This course was extremely helpful. I wish I took this course freshman year of high school as I strongly believe it could have been even more impactful. Given the current environment, it's even more important to share these insightful findings and make it publicly known

So factual, so helpful, so unjudgmental. Ms. Santos was an expert at all of those and taught well, knowing that all of us would have a payoff of some sort if we stuck with it and did our rewirements. Thank you for this course - it helped lift the gloom of the pandemic.

Highly engaging course and delivered in extremely best way by the professor.

I would highly recommend this course who want to make positive difference in their life.

Very informative content and Rewirement challenges are the best that make this course unique and special.

This is a class where you will not forget what you learned. It truly rewires your thinking into a place of better well-being. Thank you for being with me in a time of such unrest and craziness - I think it helped me to cope through it all. Very best regards and thanks!

Such an eye-opener, definitely a must take course by anyone who trusts empirical science. This course should be prioritized by people rather than just technical courses. I hope all of humanity looks at this, learns from this and transform themselves into better beings.
