The feelings of being overwhelmed, stressed, and continually battling the amount of insufficient time for self-care are the reality in today’s world. Almost everyone knows what’s good for their well-being, yet we can’t find the time to put it into our daily routines. We know that exercising is good, that meditation pays dividends, and that sleeping enough is essential for us to functional optimally. Yet, this knowledge does not always translate to action. This course attempts to bridge that gap through the creation of habits, by suggesting well-being practices that are practical, impactful, and research backed. As we know, we can’t just meditate on our well-being; there are other factors at play as well. This course therefore touches upon deep rooted behaviors that come in the way of our well-being and provides practical, everyday strategies to manage them.

Frequently asked questions
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
You will be eligible for a full refund until two weeks after your payment date, or (for courses that have just launched) until two weeks after the first session of the course begins, whichever is later. You cannot receive a refund once you’ve earned a Course Certificate, even if you complete the course within the two-week refund period. See our full refund policy.
