Amazing! I would recommend this to anyone, but especially to those who struggle with finding happiness that cannot be found in tangible things. I would also recommend this to anyone who is struggling with or fighting their inner pessimist.

a very useful course for those who are interested in making oneself and others happier. The science is simple to understand but the practice would be what counts, which requires lots of efforts, persistence and flexibilities. Good lucks!

Great intro the psychology around well being and happiness. Learning how to change the way we think and approach certain things differently. Learning more about what really makes us happy and how it isnt necessarily the things we expect.
