5.0 out of 5 stars The best book on happiness, January 11, 2008
Recently there's been a spate of books on how to find happiness or make yourself feel happier. They all make their case with impressive statistics, catchy lists, and simple little tricks you can use to talk yourself into a more uplifted state. But the real test is whether you can cultivate, sustain, and live from a place inside yourself where that happiness is deep and permanent. This is the only book I've found to get at the root cause and core practice that will result in a total inner transformation that translates to your whole life. This book is powerful, inspiring, and life-changing. If you want to be a happier person, start by reading this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Unimaginable Possibility, June 30, 2008
This review is from: Choose to Be Happy: The Craft and the Art of Living Beyond Anxiety (Paperback)
Swami Chetananda offers Truth as no other spiritual teacher I know of today. He writes from profound experience guiding the reader gently......step by step to a point where it is possible to realize that the choice to be happy is in the reader's hands alone. His energy lives in all his books so to begin with one is to open one's heart and mind to a gift of transformative possibility.......for all of us!
