Many of us write on a day-to-day basis and without thinking employ the myriad of grammatical elements we all learned in school, like transitive verbs, prepositions, commas, and colons.

"A witty meditation on the ways in which grammar can improve morale, bolster confidence, and provide an invigorating spiritual workout" —O, The Oprah Magazine
"Grammar for the Soul is an entirely fresh, amusing, and authentic approach to spirituality. Expressing ourselves through language creates the way that we sculpt reality...and allow ourselves to be sculpted by it. If you read just one book this year, let this be the one. I loved it!" —Joan Borysenko, Ph.D., author of Your Soul's Compass and Minding the Body, Mending the Mind
In this wise and charming book, Lawrence Weinstein explores how self-expression reveals the psyche and how changing language can change lives. In chapters like “Tolerating Ambiguity” and “Getting Out of One’s Own Way,” he describes how the proper use of an element of punctuation or syntax, even the simple reversal of an object and subject, can help one become a whole human being. Clear examples, amusing anecdotes, and telling quotes support Weinstein's technique for teaching self-improvement through improved grammar.
