"It is an honor to be able to share what I learnd with Dr. Tal Ben Shahar..."
"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 I have been studying other disciplines for almost 4 years and being deeply amazed when I learn something new. I was fortunate to find and learn about subjects that I am passionate about and I would like to study for the rest of my life, such as the science of happiness, human flourishing, yoga, art therapy and surely others that will open up along the way.One of the perspectives of the SPIRE model of well-being tells us about the intellectual gaze, and about how curiosity and openness towards other topics and areas of knowledge is fundamental for our happiness, before I would not have imagined that learning and sharing knowledge could be one of the sources of my daily happiness.Today I am very happy to have completed my study with @happiness.studies.academy as a certified happiness trainer and it is an honor to be able to share what I learnd with Dr. Tal Ben Shahar my beloved mentor and teacher. With love, Vale"

"the highlight of the semester"
"Participating in the retreat HSA in Cartagena is the highlight of the semester . We put SPIRE into practice, and the transformation is noticeable. What was once a simple friendship has evolved into a true brotherhood. The magic of coming together as a cohesive group is indescribable, and these moments have truly become unforgettable. At the end of each meeting, there's always that lingering desire for more. It's amazing how HSA not only teaches us about the science of happiness but also gifts us with lasting bonds and memories that we will cherish forever."
