This is a therapy course, its truly one of a kind that need to be taken almost every year by everyone to remember and acknowledge the essence of happiness. Instead of just run around misleading information from social media.

Excellent course, I have learned not to focus so much on saving (hoarding) money and buying items that I believe will make myself happy. I will be exploring more life experiences and enjoy the activities that make me happy.
