Choose to Be Happy: A Guide to Total Happiness

After battling cancer 3 times over a period of 22 years, and enduring a very difficult relationship recently, the most poignant reading and message comes from Rima Rudner. Straight forward, to the point and really showing how to overcome the negativity in these areas amongst life itself. I've read all of the top "self help" gurus, from Louise Hay, Wayne Dyer, Dale Carnegie et al. Rima lets you know how to deal with life, today in 2008 and for the rest of your life. Truly a must read!! Spencer Shiffman - Calabasas, Ca.

Rima Rudner's victory over past physical and emotional challenges gives her readers true faith and trust in her words on happiness. She clearly states how to embrace it, maintain it and "choose" happiness for a fullfilling life. Due to Ms. Rudner's wit, intuition, insight, straight-forward style of writing and love of people; we should all have a copy of her book on our shelf! Paramabansa Yogananda; a great spiritual leader wrote: It does not matter whether or not one fully comprehends the day-to-day enigmas of life. What is important is to be resolute in the search for the True Happiness, the Joy that is the origin of one's being. Ms Rudner's experiences have taught her this truth and we are fortunate that she is sharing her knowledge with us. A BIG THANK YOU!!!!

Rima Rudner obviously has an insight into the most important aspect of our emotional well being. She does it in a story telling way with a great sense of humor, which also makes for enjoyable and easy reading. I strongly recommend this book, even for those who are reasonably happy with their lives. We can all benefit from it.

This book was an eye opener for me. I did not quite realize how many unhappy people surround us. This book does not only identify the unhappiness in people, but offers a new outlook on life for many of us. I loved her life story and how through positive thinking and the shedding of the "toxic" people in her life, she became the happy person she is now. Her willingness to share this with the world shows great unselfishness. Everyone should read this book, because there is something for everyone in it, happy or unhappy! I highly recommend it.

Rima Rudner's "Choose to be Happy" is an excellent guide for anyone, unhappy or not, to learn how to get the most out of life. Her well-reasoned advice is logical and straightforward, sure to help you realize your power to control your feelings and access the happiness we all desire.
