[Hypothesis] Adequate air pressure buildup immediately after breathing

[Hypothesis] Adequate air pressure buildup immediately after breathing Hey guys! So as some of you know I’m on a journey to discovering a complete physiological treatment to stuttering that’s built on pure mechanics. And here’s one very interesting piece of the puzzle that I believe I’ve found: Adequate air pressure must be built up before speech / after inhalation by very briefly halting inhalation and pausing, such that there’s no inhalation, exhalation, or initiation of any speech sound in this very very brief pause. This means no “pre forming” any letter in this pause by, for instance, not letting the tongue touch the soft palate to produce the /k/ sound in this pause, nor partially constricting the throat to produce the glottal stop. For this reason, I call it **the open pause**. This concept comes both empirically and logically. Empirically, I’ve noticed that fluent speakers always do what I’ve described. Logically, we can try thinking of this in terms of Bernoulli principle. When you pause with all of the inhaled air you stored in your lungs, the motion of the airflow decreases a lot. As a result, the air pressure inside your lungs increases considerably yet adequately, allowing there to be the much needed air pressure for speech. I’ve tested this concept myself many many times both publicly and privately and it works consistently. Practice pausing like mentioned for half a second and work your way down from there. And remember to actually breathe consistently and do that pause consistently!
