I truly felt like I was in a classroom learning all the material! I greatly appreciated all of the real-world applications and hearing all of the different perspectives throughout each week and topic!

Excellent! There was some common sense here, but plenty of new data and tools anyone can use in both their personal and professional life. A must for every human who wants to get the most out of life.

I would not recommend it. I chose to not get a certificate and the administration locked me out of the tests and some very valid information. What I did learn was very interesting skills that everyone could benefit. If you do not purchase the certificate then it is not worth learning half of the information. It was not a good experience for me. I've taken several classes on coursera and this is one that was not enjoyable.

It feels at times that this is a course for 3rd graders. Too much dwelling and beating the dead horse in catastrophic thinking lectures. Depressing. Mindfulness lecture awful. The lecturer is practically whispering as if he's telling a bedtime story, no enthusiasm, no engagement, boring. Some of the interviews about resiliency boring, redundant.
