This course is something that we all need to hear! We are all chasing after the wrong things and lose track of things that will make us happy. This course is not over after the last lecture. It is practical things that can be re wired into your everyday.

I absolutely Loved Laurie and this course. Having a BA in Biology, I especially enjoyed all the statistics from the different psychology studies. Thank you for helping me understand all the nuances and pitfalls of starting new habits. Best Wishes to ALL!

I think everyone should take this course to understand the things that actually can enhance our well-being versus the things we think/are taught will make us happy. Understanding the simple, intentional things we can do for ourselves makes a big difference.

This course is excelent in so many ways. I started in the midst of a situation of anguish and that changed through the tools obtained. They allowed me to see a way to grow, but above all, they strengthened me to make the decision to live well and feel good.

This was an amazing course. It was eye-opening, encouraging and comforting. I have learned skills and though processes that I will continue to work on in order to be a happier and more grateful person. I am recommending this course to everyone around me. :)

Going through the course made me realize how happiness is impacted by our mindset (and how our mind can be misleading). The course is backed up by solid science which provides credibility to the action plans taught in the course to increase one's happiness.

Not only did I learn new things from this class but was able to immediately implement my take-aways and apply them to my life for an increase in overall happiness. This class does a great job giving perspective as to the things that REALLY impact happiness.

This is a great course, it will show different strategies to live a happier life.

A great thing about it is that it will force you to implement them through the course, it goes beyond just teaching you things, you actually get to implement them in your life!

Fantastic course, easy to understand, she does a great job breaking down the stages of gaining happiness. You learn the resources and science behind what it takes and means to be happy. I enjoyed the studies provided and the book recommendations. Fun class!

I absolutely loved The Science of Well-Being course. Laurie is an incredible teacher and explains things so well. The course really got me interested in psychology and self-development. Thanks so much for making this accessible to everyone around the globe.

I thought the course was great. Helpful tips and strategies to consider. Videos were wonderful and I would love to take a course with this professor again. She seems to really understand her students and the importance of her work. Thank you for your time!

One of the best online courses I have ever taken. The fact that it combines theory with practice is significantly helpful. The professor is so engaging and fun to learn with. And homework is so beneficial to increase one's happiness if one commits to them.

This literally worked for me! One wouldn't be able to assume the result by just reading the materials without trying the methods explained. I followed word by word. My routine is different now by what I learnt here and I am a lot happier person! Thank you!

Do yourself a favour and do this course. Seeing the science behind well-being will really open you eyes! Thanks to Laurie and the team to putting this together. I am hoping that this is something that could become part of education curriculum for all ages!

All of the information is applicable in daily life and gives a better understanding as to why we might feel unhappy. Happiness is work and habits- you can't just sit around and think it will show up! Great resources and weekly challenges. Highly recommend!

Absolutely loved this class! It was the perfect mood booster, especially during Covid lockdowns. As a psych major in college, I was always interested in the subject of happiness, so I'm really glad that I could learn and take this course even post-college!

Laurie presents the material of this course so wonderfully and gives real ways for you to increase your happiness. I loved the format and pacing of the course - highly recommend to anyone seeking a way to authentically bring more happiness into their life.

This course gave me exactly what I needed! Tips and knowledge on how to be a happier human being. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I will pay it forward in every way possible. I wish I had a professor like Laurie Santos when I was in University! Thank you!

I enjoyed the combination of theory and practical elements, which I think makes the learning more effective, A well organised course, enabling you to work in small blocks, and I enjoyed the variety of elements - quizzes, lectures, interviews, discussions.

I have truly enjoyed this course. I have learned valuable information that I can use in my daily life and in the pursuit of my own well-being and the path to being a better person. In finding my strengths, I now have many other ways to achieve happiness.

I really enjoyed this course. It covered many aspects that otherwise not many people would think of. It helped me identify what factors and practices in my life directly had an impact in my positive emotions. i would highly recommend this course to others.

I truly enjoyed every minute of this course. I have been practicing many things in my every day life that we touch on but I learned so much more about actually implementing them into my life better. I cannot reccomend this course any more highly than I do.

This course allowed me to explore new strategies for adapting the spread of happiness, fulfillment and kindness. It also taught me what is important and less important in terms of desire.

This course has brought me added value in my personal life.

Thank you.

The course was really great and insightful. I took the course at the perfect time. Thank you Professor Dr. Laurie Santos for bringing in the research in such a good way. I would like to thank Yale University as well.

Thanks!!

This is an excellent course, with great material and a great instructor. Everything is well-validated, and scholarly sources are provided. There are also a lot of suggestions for further reading that are aimed at the general public, rather than academics.
