This course and Professor Santos are amazing and life changing. My life is truly better having taken this course and I strongly recommend it to everyone who is looking to increase their daily joy and happiness. I learned how to build healthy habits and be more intentional in my daily life and my pursuit of happiness. I can not say enough positive things about this cours

It was an amazing experience with this coursematerials, contens and lectures. Practice of measuring happiness, practice of healthy habits, practice of patience and planning are the simple steps for a healthy, positive life and happiness. This course helped me a lot to understand the process ( actually the science) of well-being. Thanku so much for making such good package.

I really love the course, it's eye-opening and also I feel it's very important for us to practice the things which lead to our wellbeing which is the core part of the course. I am blessed and grateful to this course teacher and all who supported this and given us opportunity that we got this course. thank you so much. I highly recommend this to all people around the globe.

The Science of Well-Being gives learners practical tools to increase the happiness in their lives. The Lectures and extra materials are enjoyable, information is shared in an easily understandable way, and sharing the experience with other learners on the forum helps reinforce the lessons. This course truly changed my happiness trajectory and I'm incredibly glad I took it.

Very practical and insightful course on strategies you can implement to create habits and routines that can boost your happiness, health and overall well-being. Must-do course that can benefit anyone both in their professional career (in terms of engagement, productivity and flow) as well as in their personal lives (gratitude, savoring, kindness, social connection, health)

This course is great! It helps us to realize what really make us happy and shares the rationale on why our mind keeps thinking the wrong way. I enjoyed the graded assignment as this allows me to not just share my challenge, it also allow me to see that there are so many out there who are interested to make themselves happier and the process they went through to achieve it.

The Course can improve one's life enormous. The exercises are simple and lead to focusing on the high frequency feelings. The changes can be seen in a few days. In the long run can open new paths, opportunities and connections. Even if a person is very busy, by dedicating 15 minutes/day for meditation or focusing on gratitude can create the path for an extraordinary life.

I would like to begin by expressing my gratitude to Professor Santos for her lectures that changed my mind, the mood on the positive side, for my friends that make me feel happy to spend their time during the holidays. In addition, my supervisor inspires me to do my best in my job. Things are going well in my life; I bought a new apartment in the best district of my city.

I've really enjoyed this course! Professor Santos had inspiring videos and made it fun as well. The Science of Well-Being included finding your signature strengths as well as happiness surveys. I found that my happiness score increased during this course and that my signature strenth is kindness. I know my real purpose in life and I use it even more after this course.

This class not only helped me overcome obstacles that were interfering with my happiness, it helped me realize and appreciate my true calling and purpose in life. Now I can embrace my role as caregiver fully and joyfully. I kind of feel like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. What I thought I needed wasn't off over some rainbow...it was here with me surrounding me all along.

This course was a great experience for me. There weren’t any unnecessary information. All the facts were based on scientific truths and experiments. It was both academic and practical. There were a lof practices to improve our happiness. The tutor is no wonder a professor at Yale University. She was great. I highly recommend it for people who wants to live a happier life.

How often do we take time to study ourselves? This course provides the framework for just that - backed up by real science and an engaging lecturer. This is a course I would highly recommend to anyone looking to carve out space for themselves. It encourages you to take a meaningful look at yourself and your habits and finding opportunities to promote your own happiness.

This was a fantastic course. I completed it during shelter-in-place due to COVID, and it really helped me to have a set of concrete tasks during this time. I learned a lot about myself as well as the science of happiness and well-being, and came out of it with a new habit (daily meditation) which had previously eluded me for years despite saying I wanted to do more of it!

Content, instructor and assignments are excellent. This is an excellent course. The process flow and use of Coursera are a little wonky or difficult. It took me a lot of time to complete this course because I could not understand how to complete all the tasks. So, the operational aspect was a little tough for me, but the content and facilitation (teacher) was incredible.

*MUCHAS GRACIAS*, ME GUSTO MUCHO HABER TOMADO ESTE CURSO Y ME AYUDO BASTANTE EN MI VIDA =) *TENGO UNA PREGUNTA* AL INICIO ME PREGUNTARON SI QUERIA UN CERTIFICADO Y ESCRIBI QUE NO PORQUE LA VERDAD NO SABIA QUE BUENO ERA PERO AHORA QUE LO SE SI QUISIERA MI CERTIFICADO, PODRIA SER TAN AMABLE DE DECIRME SI TODAVIA PUEDO SOLICITARLO, PARA QUE ME LO ENVIEN . MUCHAS GRACIAS =)

Thank you for you course you have really helped me when I was feeling very lost with the global pandemic. I liked the mixture of video, reading and you live lectures that was really helpful. The fact that you can work at your own pace is good and i really liked the prompt when I was late to study by one week that was very helpful. Thank you again, best wishes Harprit

This course helped me gain valuable insights into some of the scientific evidence base for happiness and well being and also about positive psychology. I think that what is not mentioned in the course is a life full of meaning and purpose also leads to happiness. Doing a job that you love or having a skill and a passion for something, will also increase one’s happiness.

I enjoyed this course because it brings data, resources, tools and ideas together to help you understand where you can start to have the biggest impact on your overall well-being and happiness. Thank you so much, Laurie! I am working towards incorporating exercise, random acts of kindness, gratitude and savoring more into my life. Thank you for the tools and resources.

I recommend this course to everybody. It really helped me in thinking different about what makes me happy.

Coursera: I'd like to buy a certificate, but I noticed that it only says, that I finished the course not the content and the time i spent. I would like to see that too, because if I add that to my CV, nobody will know what it is about except the name of the course:-)

This is a great beginner/introductory course into The Science of Well Being. Throughout the course there are many practical and simple strategies discussed at length that can be used to help increase overall happiness and well-being. It is an engaging course and I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone who are looking to live a happier and more meaningful life.

Laurie Santos is engaging and the course is well-designed and extremely helpful. The research and detailed resources are very much appreciated. I would recommend reviewing all the rewirements at the start of the course and choosing some to work through during the whole time.

I definitely appreciate what I've learned and will continue trying to practice what I've learned.

This was a great course, I put honest effort into listing and working on the information given. If you take the time to do these things it truly helps. I can sit back and be in the moment of life and really see how much good I do have and how beautiful things really are. I'm learning to not let my brain trick me! Thanks for offering this, I hope it helps others as well.

This is alife changing course. I confess I have listened to it 3 times. Each time I listen to it I learn more and more. I loved listening to the professor and listening to the student’s questions. The last rewirement was just perfect as we are obliged to commit with the challenge. There is no achievement without implementation, without action. I would recommend it 100%

This course is well designed, provides a rabbit hole of references that I could not resist following and forces to practice the material firsthand, allowing the learner to feel the difference. Not only did I learn a lot, I was able to apply my learning in my coaching sessions with clients right away and experience changes in myself as I was practicing the "rewirements".

Thoroughly enjoyed this course. It was practical, but also contained a good amount of academic robustness to make it very meaningful and informed. It certainly changed my views about happiness, what makes us happy as opposed to what we think makes us happy, and gave me the ammunition to make some evidence-based changes to the way I approach life. Thank you very much!
