Happiness Studies Academy

"I have completed the course.....What an amazing experience.....Tal is an extraordinary teacher!

The HSA program has holistically changed my life. It represents the most profound learning experience I have ever engaged. And as a Vice President and General Manager for a fortune 50 company, I was exposed to very electric, dynamic and forward thinking educational programs. And none of them resinated with me like The Hsa field of studies program..I am completely committed to the Happiness revolution!"

"I wanted to express my deepest gratitude for this course. It is amazing. I am thrilled to be a part of this program. Each week I am excited to dive into the new material with anticipation. What Dr. Tal is teaching completely aligns with how I have been thinking and believing for the last ten years. This program lights me up and opens my mind to possibilities. It confirms how I have felt about the importance of the mind body connection. It also is not coincidental that I have just began my three year studies of somatic experiencing practitioner certification. Both programs are contributing beautifully to each other and I am confirmed that I am on the right track. I am currently a yoga therapist and I am so excited to see what is to come. Just wanted to say thank you thank you thank you!!!! With deepest gratitude"

"I just finished the final session, and I hope you'll accept this as my long and loud standing ovation. This course was AMAZING! I have gained so much out of it, both personally and professionally. It has motivated me to wake-up early in the morning to make time for the lectures, exercise regularly since last April (HIIT, no less : )), as well as build a solid routine around meditation (I do it while I boil my egg each morning, which takes 10 minutes at altitude : )). And, these are just the small changes that are greatly impacting my whole being and happiness. Now that I'm finished, I'm looking forward to reviewing my pages and pages of notes to think more about how to better incorporate all of this amazing material into my coaching practice. You can be certain that I've been peppering all of my clients with these learnings along the way. Meanwhile, I will miss waking-up to Tal's calm, yet inspiring voice, as he delivers endless wisdom. I'll also miss starting my day off with a cup of coffee, and the HSA video jingle : ). Thanks to all of you for delivering such an EXCELLENT course -- it's been one of the highlights of my year!"

"Tal's invaluable example and teachings inspire me every single day. Professionally, he introduced me to the happiness psychology that significantly influences my current research work of creating multimedia for wellness education. Personally, through practicing what he preaches and preaching with reliable stories, Tal has genuinely boosted my life skills and happiness. Because of his invaluable contributions and effective communication skills, I am grateful to have been (and to be) one of his students."

"I am very thankful I did get Tal as my mentor in positive psychology. The combination of Western sciences and Eastern philosophy of Tal's lectures, as remarkable as he himself, makes him very unique in the field of happiness study. That's also what I admire. He is generous to give us much support as he can when I need, including writing the blurb for my first book about positive education book. Now I am following the calling of devote my life to human wellbeing and positive education which makes me feel happy and meaningful. At At the same time, many people have been benefiting from what I am doing."

Tal is an outstanding teacher; vastly knowledgeable, compassionate, and authentic. His ability to combine the rigorously scientific with wisdom traditions, literature and philosophy means that this multidisciplinary program has both great breadth and depth. The course material and tools are now a part of my life, and I will continue to use them, for the rest of my life.
My relationships have deepened, my health has improved, and I am happier and more resilient. I am a better coach, a better partner, sister and friend, and a better business person.
During this year of the pandemic, HSA became a cornerstone in helping me to deal with the challenges Covid-19 brought, and to align my life with a strong foundation of wholebeing. I learned tools that helped me, and also allowed me to help my family, my coaching clients and my co-workers deal with the pandemic certainly, and improve our lives overall too.
Take this program - you will be so glad you did!

¨This program has allowed me to guide the lives of children, parents and other women, towards a more harmonious, family oriented, spiritual lifestyle. Doing this has filled my heart with much happiness along the way. ...

"If you want to improve your life, then this is the course for you. The course is perfectly structured and very easy to follow. Some parts are almost addictive, I strongly looked forward to the next lesson, but as I started to reach the end of the course, instead of looking forward to next lesson, I found myself wanting it to slow down.

The course is not only theoretical, I learned many things to improve my everyday life. For example, I started to practice Mindfulness every morning. I also started a Podcast, where I share what I´m learning with Tal. I talk about my transformative experience because I think that now I am a better person, both personally and professionally, and equipped to help spread happiness around me."

"In an effort to repair the damage in my heart, I began a journey to heal. I saw the course and it was a no-brainer- I signed up! The marriage between the lectures and the life journal was masterful. Knowing that it wasn't "homework" but, "me-search" was motivating. I "lived" the lectures, discovered new ways to approach my life and it also reinforced what I had already been doing. Tal was able to teach complex material in a way that was digestible. In fact, it wasn't until now, that I have realized how much I have been taught and how much holistic understanding I have of the material. He is a master and his love for this field is clear. He is humble and human and truly makes the student feel that we are on this journey together and that we are as important as he is to the course. As an alumna, I feel like a partner with HSA. I am excited to continue to grow and take on the challenges ahead as we change the world. Thank you for this gift. I look forward to the future and the adventures to come. The only conflict I graduate with is where to begin first?! I want to do it all- teach at schools, senior homes, seminars, build a happier center etc. I'll take one step at a time and it will unfold. I'm just glad that I have something more to offer our sad world. "

"When I was in school and university I did not like studying at all, I saw it as something boring and that I "had to" do. Today I am a # 1 fan of learning new things and ...

With love, Vale"

"We all know that things arrive in our life at the right moment, but having worked in the first steel global company (ArcelorMittal) as a SVP International Affairs and later as the CEO of its global foundation for many years, I wish I would have known then what I learned with Tal Ben-Shahar. I would have suffered less, I would have understood more…

This is why I believe that this course should be a “sweet obligation” for every top manager all over the world. Companies would spend less money in coaching their executives suffering from burn-out.

I wish I had had such a course after my two burn-outs!

Nevertheless, now that I am walking new paths I am applying all have learned to live with a deeper happiness! Thank you Tal!"

"The Happiness Studies Academy courses are so important for every human being from young to old to learn. It provides the most practical tools to elevate happiness and wellbeing. This was the best course I have ever encountered. Tal is a great lecturer, highly articulate and pleasant. He leads his students through a journey with a comprehensive material and knowledge that makes this course outstanding. I implement the tools I have learned in my everyday life and use it in my clinic as a Chinese Medicine practitioner. and it works :) Furtheremore; I started lecturing about happiness thanks to the coherent short lectures that Tal is providing each graduate.

The HSA is a community of happiness minded people and as a student and graduate I am enjoying the weekly webinars that Tal is holding for this community. The webinars are a continuum to the courses and great reminders for me to stay in the happiness journey. I thank Tal and his staff so much for this wonderful opportunity for my personal and professional growth. "

"The HSA certificate has been transformative in my life. I'm grateful for the high-quality teachings of Dr. Tal Ben-Shahar which have been a world of knowledge and inspiration that have enriched my life and have transformed the way I see the world. What I have learned gave me the extra push I needed to materialize my dream of creating a gratitude practice in the form of cards. Like Dr. Tal, I’m a firm believer that Gratitude is a superpower that every person on this planet can use to live a more satisfying life and become more resilient to take on everyday challenges. "

"Little did I know in joining this program, that I would add as much value and wholeness to my life in the midst of a pandemic as I have. Changes such as better defining my purpose in life and what drives my happiness, guided meditations that focus on my breathing, being more ...

I encourage anyone and everyone to participate in this program if they want to know what true happiness is and how to attain it. The program's interdisciplinary approach to understanding happiness is unique and excellently arranged into the most harmoniously, wisdom-filled present one could hope for."

"I am so glad to have taken this certification, it has really been a great investment in my personal wellbeing!!! Is a subtle way to learn to be happy. One year on living the tools, passing them through the body, doing them, living them....

I strongly recommend this training. It’s a must to improve your selfsteem, your perception of things, to value and to honor what you have. Being happy is not a wohoo, new agy concept, it a well studied, all comprehensive methode that we could all do, if we really look for it.
Tal is an amazing communicator, a humble and brilliant mind and his classes are fun, easy to understand even they are very profound and full of relevant studies."

"The CiHS course is one that's an extensive study on the subject of happiness. I pursued it with an intent to elevate my happy state and the key takeaways for me have been that I've started focussing on maintaining a happier state of mind, being content yet aspiring, being able to segregate challenging feelings(like anger/sadness/frustration etc) from happier ones, and living those only for the moment its needed, coming back to the NORMAL happy state almost always.

Its been a fabulous learning journey, equipping myself with a processed and well researched outline on how we can take a holistic route towards coaching the same.

I sure look forward to continuing the journey of learning and coaching."

"Taking this certification meant a life experience transformation to me, to the extent that it gave me a purpose in my life, besides my marriage and growing my kids, trying to make them good people and for good, it gave me a new purpose in my life, which I have been looking for. I can’t explain enough the great happiness and joy it gave me to know and apply in my life all the concepts I learn during the certification. I can’t wait to learn more about Happiness studies!!! I recommend taking and living this course with all my heart."

"Permission to be human" was one of the phrases that resonated most with me during the certification in Happiness Studies by Dr. Tal Ben Shahar. This Happiness course is a life experience that has shown me...

I had a lot of fun putting this puzzle together to achieve a more conscious and fulfilling happiness for myself and also to help other people on the path to their own happiness. Tal is a wonderful teacher who is able to share his extensive and well-grounded knowledge with humility and kindness. Thank you, infinite thanks."

"This is the best educational program ever! It gives so many practical tools that make life better, easier and happier. Thanks to Tal to the moon and back for weekly live webinars and the opportunity...

"I suffered from depression for more than five years, but I overcame it by learning positive psychology and practicing its interventions. Six months later, I found and enrolledin the Happiness Study Academy....
