This course has exceeded all of my expectations! If you are on the fence and wondering if it's worth your time, ask yourself this: "Who else is going to put forth the effort towards my well-being?"

What a wonderful course. The lecturer made everything very clear, easy to understand and although some of the exercises were challenging, were useful at trying to nudge habits in a new direction. Highly recommended.

Excellent course focused on the types of things we all focus on that don't make us happy while providing guidance to purposefully recognize those things that do make us happy and create routines to change our lives.

A great course to take with friends and truly consider – and re-consider – our routes to happiness. I'm so glad we experienced this and the teachings of Laurie Santos from a distance. Thank you Coursera and Laurie!

Good online content! Most lessons are very focused on previous studies, but some videos include interviews with other prominents in the field. I was thankful that those were mixed in to switch up the video content.

I really learned a lot from this course and am grateful I had a chance to take the course. I hope to go back to the videos and rewirement exercises as a reminder well-being is a journey and not a final end - point.

Me encanto el curso. Es un resumen de muchos conceptos, (si uno está interesado en el el Wellnes), quizás ya los ha leído. El curso profundiza y reúne todos estos conceptos de una forma práctica teórica muy buena.
