This course can be life changing if you implement the concepts. I loved the professor and also loved the podcast that further goes into more detail about the things that actually bring us happiness.

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.

Tremendous course that I cannot recommend highly enough. This is self counselling and self cognitive therapy at it's best. Such a simple course and idea with such a dramatic effect. Thank you Ms Santos.

The course was intended to fill some time during the pandemic. The results have been tenfold. I learned to center myself, be grateful for the small things, and redefined my measure of a successful life.
