How to live a good life?

The aim of this course is to strengthen the participant’s understanding of the fundamental questions of good life and how to make reasonable life choices. The course gives tools to think about what to aim for in life, helps to identify barriers and challenges to good life, and explains what latest research tells about the choices in life that tend to lead to wellbeing, happiness, and meaningfulness. The purpose is to deepen the participant’s understanding of oneself, life, and what being a human entails, while strengthening the ability to live a life that is volitional, self-chosen and good according to one’s own standards.

The course consists of 6 parts that each have several video lectures, reflective assignments and quizzes. Ultimately the course amounts to the participants reflecting their own life and their own life choices. The course aims to give participants a moment to stop and think about their lives to be able to live a more self-selected, self-endorsed life in the future.
