Overall great class. It was easy to understand and easier to follow. This class has genuinely helped me to be happier in life and something i would keep on practicing for all life long. Thank you Dr. Santos for creating this amazing class and for coursera to bring it to everyone all over the world.

This was an amazing course especially given the extremely challenging circumstances that we are all facing at the moment. It made me rethink a lot of the assumptions I had about what makes us happy and the retirements were a great demonstration of what can actually make us happier and more positive

I honestly did appreciate the guidance that this course provided me about building habits and following through with them, but what I found invaluable were some of the scientific studies we were provided access to, in my opinion proving that you can change change your outlook at least a little bit.

I really enjoyed taking this course. I was glad that it was offered for free, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to take it. Everything that was taught each week was new to me. I will continue to work on the rewirement activities and put into practice the point about happiness and well being.

This class challenged how I "think" I need to be living my life. Making monumental changes is difficult, but it is presented in a way that shows how truly beneficial it can be with just a little specifically intentional effort. I will be using this information for the rest of my life. Great class!!

Excellent course! It was so interesting to break down what we feel will make us happier vs. what will actually make us happiest. The tools provided in the course are easy to implement and it's up to you to put in the work to get all of the benefits out of it you can. I highly recommend this course.

This was such a worthwhile course. I learned so much and was engaged throughout the ten week program. All of the videos and written information were beneficial and presented in such a way that facilitated learning and encouragement to continue. I have literally recommended it to everyone I know.

Excellent! I learned a lot about what makes (and what doesn't make!) people happy and I have started building healthy habits what will hopefully increase my happiness level further in the future. I really enjoyed the course and recommend it to everyone who is looking for improved life satisfaction.

This was much more in depth than I expected, and had a far greater impact on my own wellbeing too. It is accessible for a range of learners, but the additional reading material (which you do not HAVE to do) can go into much more depth for those who are more academically minded. Well worth the time.

It is an absolute brilliant course, it really improved my life in a tremendous way, an incredible revelation for me was when they talked about goal setting and specifically the WOOP technique, I never imagined how goal setting was so much related to our well being. I highly recommend this course.

One of the best learning programs that I've seen.

This helped me immensely to be better equipped to get through the challenging covid period. Content is extremely rich and useful, well designed and Laurie Santos has a thriving and very nice delivery. I am truly grateful for this program! Thank you

I thought I had my priorities in life straight when I entered this course. Then I did an uh-oh. As I learned more and more of how our brain lies to us, I understood why the things that many people pursue as priorities in life really don't make them happy. This information will change your life...

Wonderful course adapted to a virtual environment. Like any course, the more you put in, the more you'll take away. This course taught me valuable information backed by data shared through storytelling. I recommend to anyone who is interested in the well-being, positive psych, yoga or mindfulness.

This was an excellent course, I'm so glad I took it. I am happy to have completed it, but am a little sorry it is over. It was great to learn practical ways to increase well-being. It absolutely worked, and during a global pandemic. What a gift! I encourage others to join future sessions.THANKS

I absolutely loved this course!! My level of happiness significantly increased and I feel peaceful, something I haven't felt for quite a while. I tried another course on happiness and it just doesn't compare to this one. Thank you for offering this to us at such a critical and unsure time in life!

Excellent course and very engaging teacher! Thank you Dr. Laurie Santos for providing an amazing class, tool and practical way to implement a new healthy habits for overall well-being. This class was extremely informative and I feel so grateful to be able to share what I have learned with others.

Overall it was good. It was also challenging. You CAN increase your own happiness, but you must work for it! Data from scientific studies presented is plentiful and compelling. Thanks to this class I've been successful in establishing a new habit of daily meditation, and plan to continue it!

This is an excellent course for the introduction to the science of well-being. The lectures are well presented, well researched and engaging. I have seen an improvement in my well-being and happiness over the ten weeks and have learned some invaluable skills to continue on my way. Highly recommend

Taking this course is not going to give you a silver bullet to happiness, or magically make you happier. What it will do is expose you to what is truly meaningful for a happy life and scientifically proven practices that, if you implement them and put in the work, can help you lead a happier life.

Great course that is not only practical but based on studies, not opinion. I will continue to dip into the content of this course as the reading and content will continue to be relevant. I recommend this to anyone of any age. You will definitely change for the better. Thanks Lori. Thanks Coursera

This is my very first course at Coursera and i'm so glad with it. Interesting topic and materials. And i hope i can really and continuously put the habits into practice consistently. Got so many views from the Course and thanks to Ms. Santos and Coursera. I've learned a lot and so grateful for it.

I am definitely not educated to Yale standard and was nervous to do a course that involved the like. I have to say that the course was done in a way where i felt confident and safe to learn and that I did. I have learnt skills that I aim to build further into my life as the days go on. thank you

This course was life-changing. I was struggling with anxiety and focus, and with this course I learned about these things as well as ways to combat them. I am a better person with the tools and information I've gathered. I (and everyone that has to deal with me regularly!) cannot thank you enough!

It was a really interesting and well structured course. It does give some helpful real life tips how to increase your overall well-being. I was quite surprised to find out some of the things I thought are straight forward to be different. Great experience with the course and I highly recommend it.

I loved this course. So much insight and at the same time logical. It actually surprised me how much more of a motivating factor it was in my changing my habits and mindset for the better. This should be a mandatory class in all schools. We'd save ourselves a lot of frustration and heartache!
