This was my first Coursera experience and it was wonderful! I enjoyed "The Science of Well-being" and absolutely loved the professor, Laurie Santos! She was relatable, and engaging. I will explore more courses since I liked this one so much.

I learned so much from this course. I have a completely different concept of happiness now. I realize it includes learning to deal with the negative elements of life as well. I have better strategies now to cope with this thing we call life.

This course was very helpful. It took examples from day to day life. The assignments very easy as well as tough at times. I think this should be taught in schools and colleges with modified content as per the age group. It will help masses.

Definitely worth doing all the coursework! All of the peer reviews I read mentioned that their happiness was measurably increased with a few simple changes. That happened for me too. Thank you Dr. Santos for making this material accessible!

Although a lot of work if you do all the assignments, this class was excellent. Good instructor, valuable information, good insight into what works based on research that is presented so you aren't just taking their word for it. Good job.

If you really pay attention to the lectures and do your best to implement these practices in your life, then you will probably feel a little bit happier (or at least be able to recognize the things in your life that are making you unhappy).
