Review of 'Your handwriting can change your life' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
I wouldn't have considered reading this book just by reading the title. I was trying to learn how to write in cursive since my writing style is Print style. I wanted to do something with my free time and my interest in learning about handwriting and calligraphy grew so rapidly that I was searching for things online. Tutorials, videos, websites, and books. I then found this book being mentioned somewhere and I thought why not. Although I initially had doubts (like with many others books, lol) that it may be some hocus pocus. So, I read a few pages, like a chapter or two, and then I was interested in the idea of Graphology (which btw, seems to be some sort of a pseudoscience) and Graphotherapy (in which I still have a little doubt, but I think time will only tell).

The book focuses mainly on Graphotherapy, which claims to have some kind of a reverse effect. Like when you practice a certain way of writing then you'll essentially start building a certain trait and habits. Of course, the books keep reminding the reader that not every little detail applies to every person but the overall habit will bring some change, which the author claims. Again, the author has stated very clearly that, to bring change in your life through Handwriting practice you need certain time and devotion, which I still have to do to judge this book completely. But for now, I feel like this book is good enough for all the knowledge and helpful ideas it provides. And btw, the Author seems to have a fair bit of experience and expertise, at least to my knowledge from what I learned from the book. So, it helps the reader to have some faith in reading this book.
Overall I can't lie, I enjoyed this book and I loved the scripts used, the Vimala Alphabets!
