This is very helpful, but if you are having blocks and want to turbo charge the process, there are steps you can take. Make eye contact, and begin slowly on an exhale. I reduced my blocks by 90% but had a relapse after a family medical scare. With resumed practice, I’m 80% block free. But when they do come (with panic!) , slowly stretching first syllable while making eye contact releases the block *and the panic*.
