Great course. Fun, interesting, relatable material that will help boost your mood and improve your happiness through mindful acts. You will gain an understanding of what aspects of your life give a false idea on what will make you happier. Don't submit to the G.I. Joe Fallacy!

I never imagined that I would found a course like this and an amazing instructor like Laurie Santos. She is a true beauty with brain, a true mind reader. I am surely going to implement these awesome lessons in my day to day life. And I'm really thankful to Coursera, of course.

This course was really helpful to me personally - and, to all of the other fellow attendees from what I read in the peer review of work at the end of the course. I am so happy I found Coursera and took this course. I loved that the lectures were in the Professor's living room.

This was such a great class on perspective and how to eliminate the simplest things in our life to enhance our happiness... Changing a few behaviors and becoming aware of how to actually positively support yourself in any and all lifestyles changes is the key to every success!

I am a happy person (most of the times) and I see the glass half full (most of the times) but taking a moment to understand what really makes us happy and how to put into practices what really is important for my overall well-being it boosted up my happiness scores. Thank you!

I learned so much in this course. I enjoyed the scientific background, the studies, and the guest speakers. I felt a part of the class. I also have a better frame of reference for the true meaning of happiness and will carry that with me as I move forward in life. Thank you.

Simply put, the impact this course had on me was truly transformational. The professor delivers the content in a concise and articulate way that is wildly impressive. This should be a required course for in basic education for everyone. The world would dramatically improve.

I have enjoyed learning the process of Happiness! It is so complex, yet so simple. It has helped me in my day to living, in the way I just look at life and myself. I am so grateful for the opportunity to take this FREE class from Yale University. Thank you so very much!!!!

I took this course at the most perfect time in my life. I felt stuck at my job and in my career and this course helped me change my attitude and mindset. It was the boost I needed and I feel like my career and passions are headed in the right direction. Thank you Dr. Santos!

I strongly recommend this course to anyone! You will learn so many valuable insights into improving your happiness and leading a meaningful, positive life. Prof Santos is a wonderful teacher, with her engaging and cheerful demeanour making the content fun to learn and absorb.

I enjoyed learning the nuances of how the brain works in this course. I feel equipped with empirical evidence to increase my happiness index. Being able to reset deadlines was key to completing this course, though I never figured out how to navigate the web platform, coursea.

Could be life changing if you have been strugling with hapiness. I was struggling but I now have the tools to live a happier life. If I only could recommend one thing in the world to someone, regarless if they are happy or not, it is this course. For me, it was life changing.

I thought this course was very insightful and informative. This is what needs to be taught in school as it teaches life skills and building habits as well as increases happiness and is something every person will benifit from. I am very grateful for coming across this course!

Very satisfied with the instructions given.

Awonderful effort to provide the right perspective on healthy living for people.

Holistic and we'll rounded attitudes are formed thanks to the course.

I thank Dr Laurie Santos and the Coursera team for making this easy for me to learn.

To those who have hard time struggling in your life and have been wondering what does it mean to live: this course is surprisingly useful. It helps me open up my eyes and learn new views, understand why i can't be as happy as i wish, and know how to resolve. Thank you Laurie!

Proven technics, easy to implement and fun to do tasks. The course opens one's eyes on things in life that make a person happy but you would never guessed that they are. Dr.Santos is telling about the things that change the way you think about life and important things in it.

I learned and enjoyed this course a lot. Professor Santos explains very well all the concepts through great information, research and real-life examples. I am applying what I have learned to my every-day life right now and it is making a huge difference on my happiness level.

This was a very insightful course. I found this personally rewarding, as it helped increase my happiness and well-being throughout. I would highly recommend to everyone who feel they need to find themselves or feel like their happiness/well-being could do with some improving.

A fantastic course to learn about the psychological aspect of the science of well-being, about techniques to create new habits, and how to improve your own happiness. I strongly suggest this course, which helped me a lot during these past months in the middle of the pandemic.

What a positive, uplifting class. A great reminder of looking at life in a grateful, meaningful way and therefore improve our well being. We live in times that some may call challenging, but the course teaches us to have a brighter outlook on life. Thank you for the reminder.

I thoroughly enjoyed this class! Professor Santos is very relatable and personable and did a great job in conveying the many facets of well-being. I can honestly say that I have put into practice a number of the things I have learned from her. Truly a worthwhile experience!

This course was perfectly timed with my own desire to start some new positive habits AND the sudden and unexpected global pandemic. Thank Goodness this course, and Dr. Santos, were there for me! I feel I've gained so much from my time invested, and I am deeply appreciative.

A course that is not too hard on your commitment, (about 2 hours minimum in the week) but rich in structure and supporting research. I spent an hour or so more to go through the related research and videos and that gave me good reinforcement on the concepts taught. Thank you.

This course has really helped me to remain accountable to continuously work on my well being even during challenging times such as COVID-19. It gave me hope, something to look forward to and something to work towards and Implement in a sustainable manner every day of my life.
