Loved the course. Filled with so many eye-opening nuggets as to what actually does (or doesn't) make us happier. Would recommend this to anyone wishing to learn more about the science of well-being.

If you are willing to put in the work, this course can be life-changing. I think we all know what truly leads to happiness, but the data shown in this course brings about a real "aha" moment. It's definitely a course that will stay with me for life. And I'm better for it!

Dr. Santos is warm and engaging and made the course material relevant to her students' lives. I knew many of the strategies she presented from years of working with a therapist but learning the "why" and "how" behind many of them was satisfying and deepened by understanding.

Perfectly structured, engaging and definitely something everyone would benefit from. Empirical data meets practical skills that everyone can implement in their life. I am thankful this course exists and hope that a lot of other people will benefit from it in the future, too.

I have loved completing the science of well-being. It sounded like it was going to be repetitive as far as taking care of yourself. However, I was able to actually practice the exercises given and build daily habits. I highly recommend this course for your own well-being!

I learned so much from this course that I will continue to use in the future. I had never heard of WOOP before and now I use this technique. I use the rewirement app to build my habits that will continue to lead me to happiness. The professor of this course was fantastic!!!!

This is time very well spent, and the teacher is very engaging. I would recommend everyone to take this course, as it just shed new light on how we see things, and can only improve them. Loved it, and will very probably regularly get back to it so my brain can soak it all!!!

The Science of Well-Being course was really enjoyable. Not only did it open my eyes to certain behaviors, but I believe the practices that I am now putting into place more proactively will really improve my physical health and mental health. I highly recommend this course.

Absolutely loved this course!!! Going to start at the beginning of the lectures again and start another 4 week challenge in one of the other rewirements that missed the cut when I chose my rewirement to focus on for completing the course. Thank you sooooo much Dr Laurie :)

The results for me were amazing. In starting this course, I was in isolation feeling depressed, lonely and discouraged. Through this journey it has been tough but so rewarding! I have seen tremendous improvement in myself and the ones around me because of what I have learned

What a great course! I took this during the COVID-19 pandemic, so it was a bright light during quarantine and especially at a time where one's well-being felt in a precarious place. The lectures were very interesting to me, and I learned a lot. Would definitely recommend it.

This was a very engaging and useful course. I believe that no matter who you are, you can apply concepts from Laurie's teachings to your own life. It is founded in scientific research, but it does not feel heavy and intellectual. The teachings are revelatory and fascinating.

Thanks for offering this class, especially during the covid-19 crisis. I know my happiness is much higher now due to focusing on the things I learned in this class. I have suggested to several friends and co-workers who seem to be struggling and hope it helps them as well.

Excellent! I love how the course takes something seemingly intangible (happiness) and marries it up with scientific data. I applied what I learned throughout and my happiness scores increased! I plan to revisit the course in the future because it was so rich in information.

This course was spectacular! Dr. Santos is a wonderful teacher, and the facts and statistics she presented were very compelling. I was surprised, at the end, when Dr. Santos said, "You've learned everything the science of psychology has to offer about living the good life!"

Awesome Course. Thank you Dr. Santos. I have read a lot of the books you mentioned on happiness prior to taking the course, but the way you structured everything shows your incredible communication abilities and made it practically useful, which is the most important thing!
