I've experienced this too. Here's a possible explanation: There's a brain region called the insula that is involved in bodily awareness. This region is said to be overactive in people who stutter. So depending on the type of meditation, you could be increasing activation in the insula which is already overactive. I've experimented with meditation that involves external awareness, and i've experienced some positive benefits but nothing conclusion. Could give it a try.
