Awesome course. Many people suffer from depression and this course is great to understand and shift your state of mind. Can't solve a problem if you don't truly understand what's causing the problem.

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.

Un curso que todos deberían tomar, te demuestra como muchas veces damos importancia a cosas que no tienen mucha relevancia en nuestra vida y te enseña a enfocarte en lo que verdaderamente importa
