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!

This is such a great course that everyone must take. The sooner we understand and practice what is taught in this course, the happier we can become. It is beneficial to all of us at many levels, from physically, emotionally, intellectually and even spiritually if we choose to meditate every day.

It helped me a lot to gain a better mentality. I am overall happier than before this course, that's because I learned many positive things such as showing more gratitude to the people around me. I recommend this course if you want to work on yourself, it guides u through this journey in detail.

This course was excellent and exceeded my expectations. It was presented in a thoughtful, clear, and effective manner, chock full of eye-opening, empirical data about the workings of our mind. The seeker, scientist, and savant in all of us, could benefit from this course. Highly recommended.

This is a wonderful and very practical course that motivates us to build new habits to increase our sense of well-being.
It is plenty of scientific references that shows we can be responsable for our own satisfaction in many fiels of our life.
Thanks a lot, teacher Laurie Santos, for such a gift!

I wanted to understand happiness and the way to get there. Now I know I was looking for it in the wrong places and I understand now that it's a journey, not a destination. This course helped me get a better understanding of how to improve my general well-being and why! Recommend it to everyone!

Es increíble como todo tiene relación en tu vida, como está conectada la psicología con tu vida cotidiana y como puedes aplicar técnicas para que tu vida diaria sea más tranquila y obtengas más satisfacciones de todas tus experiencias.
Vale la pena tomar este curso y más aún ponerlo en práctica.

I learned so many things from this course. Things that were in plain sight that you didn't realize they're so important; and also further indicated by science. All the additional videos outside of the class were also so entertaining and educational. Im glad I took this course. Thank you all.

Exactly what a good course should look like. First, we got information basis, which really satisfied me for I am that kind of person who wants scholar background, and the, we were about to experiment with what we'd learned on ourselves.
Plus, the humbleness of the lecturer is a remarkable thing.

This course could not have occurred at a more appropriate time. Self isolation can cause so many negative emotions. Concentrating on well being was a welcomed experience. The professor and the course materials were engaging and interesting. I have recommended this course to several friends

This course was pleasant and informative. I got a bunch of knowledge and a bunch of practical tips to actually make my life happier. It's great to see some time-honored advice being supported by scientific researches. It gave me a booster to finally listen to some of them and improve my life.

The course actually taught what a true well being is and where it lies in our lives and how our expectations in life are so overly exaggerated and how we can try and bring them to what real life has to offer.
Thanks Laurie Santos,Yale and Coursera team for developing such an incredible course!

This is the most inspirational class that I’ve ever taken. I have learned that although the world may not be seen as it really is, through mindfulness meditation and living out of my comfort zone the world is much more beautiful than I ever deemed possible. Please take this class it’s sublime!

This course was really a great step to improving your wellbeing. Very informational. But of course, in order to get the full experience, you will really have to participate in the rewirements and be willing to commit to changing habits to improve your personal happiness. Overall, great course!

Muy interesante saber lo que la ciencia tiene que decir acerca de la felicidad. La felicidad no es sencilla de alcanzar, pero sí se puede trabajar cada día para conseguirla. El curso te brinda herramientas para lograrlo y sobre todo entenderlo.
Excelente la profesora Laurie Santos.
Vale la pena.
