I thoroughly enjoyed this course. I contained everything that will be help others build a much happier life for themselves. I loved all of the course content and the re-wirements. I highly recommend this course to anyone who is wanting to build a happier more peaceful life. Thank you.

The lectures are informative and super helpful, the structure of the whole course is just perfect. It was easy to get around, to keep track of your progress and to find the related articles and topics so you can go further! This is a must if you want to live an active and healthy life.

It was a very effective course for me. I learned several techniques and tools that will be helpful for a lifetime. The professor was well-spoken, knowledgeable, and down to earth. She speaks "to" you , not "at" you which is a wonderful trait. Keep up the great work, and well done!!

Brilliant course. Felt very meaty and worthwhile and I actually learnt a lot of theory, as well as putting things into action to help me increase my happiness and well-being. I'm already noticing an effect and it's encouraged me to try other online courses as I have enjoyed it so much.

Love the science backed research, and even more than that, love how it prompts us to take action throughout the entire course. Having a certificate at the end is a great touch too. Thank you! Online courses like these are important than ever during these challenging times in our world.

I started this course out of curiosity and, honestly, I didn't expect so much. The course Dr. Laurie Santos created truly changed my life for the better and I will be eternally grateful to her. My review? If you don't try to LIVE this course you are missing something incredibly good.

This course is full of practical strategies for increasing your happiness. It turns out that what makes you healthy makes you happy. Tracking yourself and your habits and thinking patterns is powerful and is not easy, but the course stresses that it's never over; to live is to strive.

A very meaningful, helpful and worth-while course! Thanks to professor Santos! I would suggest it to everyone, regardless of their emotional, physical and whatever state... Don't underestimate your own happiness, you are the only responsible for your well-being, do something about it!

Excelente información y datos que son muy interesantes que te ayudan a tu día a día, especialmente si padeces de estres. Personalmente me agradó mucho el formato de trabajo y que cualquier dato que proporciona esta sustentado con investigaciones y ejemplos prácticos. Muy recomendable.

Honestly, this was an amazing course to complete. It was so refreshing to complete learning that had both research based learning and also so applicable and practical for real life. If you have an interest in psychology, sociology or just making your life better, you NEED this course!

I felt this course was engaging, informative, and well laid out with a good mix of tasks and challenges that kept me excited to get to the next week. I learned a lot about both myself and the science of well being and I look forward to keeping up with the take-a-ways from this course.

This is a very beneficial course. At the start I was in a very difficult point of my life. I chose to start this at the best time. It not only helped me realize that I could overcome my grief, it gave me tools to get me through future tough times! it is engaging and interesting!

It's a very interesting and useful course providing all the evidence you might require in order to "force" yourself to be happier. The concepts are rather self-intuitive, but supported with strong scientific evidence, the presentation is very novice-friendly, consistent and appealing.

An absolutely brilliant course! Dr Laurie Santos teaches it with so much enthusiasm, homour, and humility, making it extremely accessible, engaging, and rewarding. Definitely happy and feel like I have a toolbox full of tools to use to increase my overall wellbeing. Thank you so much!

The research Laurie has collated here is really compelling and so helpful to giving insight into what truly makes us happy, and what our brain incorrectly THINKS makes us happy. Laurie's demeanour is captivating and fun and I really feel I've learned a lot from completing this course.

I loved it, it makes me feel so good and I learned so much of this course, now I have a lot of tools to help me every time, I really recommend to do it, it´s amazing, and also I admire deeply to the teacher, she is a wonderful human being, her knowledge and experience it´s incredible.

This course is the best investment of my time in learning something useful and practical about how to increase my well-being. It is a balanced combination of academic teaching and practical work with yourself in order to discover how each scientific information is valid in real life.

Un curso excelente. Muy bien estructurado. Combina perfectamente la teoría con la practica. Hace referencia a todos los estudios científicos mostrados en el curso. Y muestra la realidad desde una perspectiva que no estamos acostumbrados a ver. Lo disfrute mucho!!!! Muchas gracias!!!

Great course esp. for getting things straight for middle-aged people. I love the since mixed with everyday life takeaways. Lots of valuable insights. Everything so true. It's never too late to start nurturing sources of happiness. And professor Laurie Santos is a compelling mentor :)

I am so happy to participate in this course. I learn so many things and start a new habit. The topic of the course were exceptional, the teacher Lori was amazing, the experts in the interview shook my life. I want to thanks coursera, Yale, my teacher Lori Santos for this opportunity.

I really enjoyed the science behind all of this, but it's definitely helped me think about what is important to me and what makes me happy, as well as then given me tools to add certain activities to my day - or take steps to assess why things aren't working and take steps to change.

I am beyond grateful for this course (being able to participate online, having amazing Dr Santos as a teacher, learning so many helpful stuff, experiencing new possibilities, gaining insights into psychological well-being and its correlates which I can use for writing my thesis etc.)

Highly recommended if you want to improve your well-being! Throughout my life I've implemented many of these practices into my life and saw a HUGE benefit. I learned even more from this course and had the chance to review the science behind it so I have a more complete understanding.

This course is wonderful. Laurie starts by breaking down everything you think you know about being happy and then rebuilds it. It's an important education everyone needs to have. There are weekly rewirements that let you put the theory into practice. I can honest say, I feel happier.
