I couldn't have asked for a better class to be offered during this time. Got to learn a lot about myself and why I think or do certain things without even thinking about it. Thank you for this course!

Thank you for the course The Science of Well-being. Through this course, my perspective on happiness has changed totally. I actually can accept my loneliness and use my time for doing activities to make myself feel better. Hey guys! You should join this course.

Taking this course helped me realize that the things I work for on a daily basis are not the ones that will really make me happy. The wellness perspective is doing those things that you hope won't make you happy but actually do. Thanks for teaching me about it.

I love this course. I would do it again. In fact, I'm certain I will. I can't recommend it enough! Dr. Santos delves into what it means to be happier and, not to sound too sappy but, "The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now."

It is a highly-recommendable course. I found this 10-week experience truly rewarding and have been reaping the benefits of it since the first week. The weekly tasks really help to put into practice the material covered during the lectures. Thank you Dr. Santos!

Es un curso muy interesamente para aprender a conocer que cosas realmente nos hacen felices y cuales no, ya que la mayor parte del tiempo vamos detrás de objetivos que no aportan a nuestra felicidad. Enseñan buenas herramientas para ser felices! Lo recomiendo!!

To put it in the words of the great Shia Labeouf:"JUST DO IT!" and i'll be so free and add that you'll definitely get some insights out of this course. I was very sceptical at first but this course did more for me than you can possibly imagine. Cheers for that.

I would suggest adjusting some of the tasks like talking to strangers and doing one kind thing be changed or adjusted keeping in mind the physcial distancing requirements.

An excellent push back on the right track of so many practices that I have had and lost over time. Seeing the science behind these practices as well as seeing my first hand increases in happiness really reinforced these practices as priorities in my daily life
