I did hesitate spending 10 weeks for the course in the beginning but hey this is worth it. Nothing can be a bigger priority than our well being, and how we live our day to day lives. I am even considering purchasing certificate. Good luck with the course. You are going to love it!

I was surprised how much I managed to increase my happiness levels after doing this program. I am 57 and know I am never too old to learn or become a better person - this course helped me along the way during an extremely stressful & difficult time in my life. Highly recommended.

This course exceeded my expectations. The information was useful, easy to implement, and has given me grist for so many personal and professional conversation, it's hard to track it all. I highly recommend this course for everyone. We all need to learn how to avoid miswanting!

Loved this course! It was a fun approach to learning something that I normally put in more of a spiritual light. Some of the knowledge that I gleaned from this course will be carried with me for the rest of my life. To me, that makes this course definitely worth my investment.

This was a really amazing course and in my opinion life changing. The last ten weeks have been a really great journey and I’ve realized changes i need to make and how to change them. Thank you Laurie Santos and thank you for making this course available online and free of charge.

Professor Santos keeps things lively and provide a scientific basis for things some dismiss as touchy feely pointless practice. Participating in it has introduced me to the science behind it and enables me to put in place a structure which contributes to ,y helath and well-being.

Excellent course. Perfect topic, great content and wonderful style by this professor. While this seems uniquely fitted for this time of adapting to the COVID 19 shut down, this is truly timeless information that will make anyone more effective in living their life successfully.

A lot of people might think this course teaches you basic 'how to be happy' tips that everyone knows by instinct. It actually teaches you much more than that, and I'm sure you'll be surprised to find out about many things you thought would make you happy that actually hardly do!

The Science of Well-Being is a course designed to teach individuals how to become happier by understanding the science behind happiness. One of the key aspects of the course is rewiring one's brain to change behavior and habits, which leads to a happier and more fulfilling life.

The course provided with an immense knowledge of various aspects that influence our well-being. The mentor is so good in her explanations. The activities were also very easy to understand and were effective. Overall, this course is a must for at least people pursuing psychology.

Excellent course

Most people (including me) just ignore the fact that the most important asset that we have is ourselves. This course teaches you how to manage your time in a better way, how to be grateful, and change your life in a way that you just enjoy every moment you have.

A fantastic course full of interesting and insightful information. Laurie is a great teacher and presence and I could not recommend this course enough! If you want more insight into your own happiness and how to reach that goal better, then I strongly suggest taking this course.

I learned that what I thought was mostly out of my control--my happiness, is actually within my control. I can make small changes to my life and celebrate what makes me truly happy. And, along the way, I might bring that joy to other people around me. Fascinating and so helpful.

Loved this course! Helped me to implement new habits, and spend time focusing on habits that I already have but have wanted to spend more time on. Learning from the course that spending time on those habits can lead to an increase in happiness makes the time spent well worth it!

I really enjoyed this course. It was well organized, interesting, informative, and practical. I liked the way so much current research in Positive Psychology was brought into an easy to consume format. I will use this information for myself as well as with my clients. Thank you!

The construct and flow of the learning pathway was effective and practical. The self discovery along the journey was immense. All the lead-up learning elements to the final rewirement set me up to succeed. Enjoyed the frameworks shared. My wellbeing has been elevated. Thank you.

A very impactful course for anyone who needs to take time for their well being. This course is engaging without feeling overwhelming. There are a lot of helpful yet surprisingly easy research based tools introduced that produce results. This course is a great time investment!

Excellent course. Easy to follow and super interesting to learn about the things that truly make people happy. All of the activities seemed like they were going to be super easy to implement, but in fact they were not, which added a challenge to the course that I really enjoyed.

Well done. As a senior/senior I was a little unsure if I can "attend" a classroom again, and

then with identifying with the college age students in the class. No need to worry. I enjoyed it and feel a great sense of satisfaction, of I can do it!!!

Thank you for the opportunity

I really appreciated having evidence-based strategies for improving my happiness. As the instructor says, knowing isn't enough - you also have to put it into practice. I've been meditating more, feeling more socially connected, and just generally a lot more emotionally stable.

I started studying when our country New Zealand went into lockdown. I really enjoyed this course and I have gone on to incorporate meditation and mindfulness into my life. I highly recommend this course if you don't use what you learn now, it is valuable to have in later life.

It is a very powerful course. By taking this course, it brought me into regular exercise, and more healthy mental status, I found out that learning is one of the sources that would make me feel happy. I highly recommend this course to all high schoolers and university students.

Truly an eye-opening experience, that helps one connect the science of well-being to one's everyday life and get the most of it. My happiness score went up. It's not magic, it's the result of small consistent effort and I feel so proud of myself. Thanks Dr. Laurie and Coursera!

Laurie was amazing. Her personality lit up the screen and all of her knowledge was apparent in the way she spoke and taught the course. She really made you want to learn and be committed to the course. I am so lucky to have been able to have this opportunity to learn from her.

Right from the beginning the course felt very helpful. The thing I liked most is reference material is provided at the end of every week. Also providing a separate Q&A video at end is a really nice idea. I would suggest everyone who want to improve their life to do this course.
