Gamify your stutter/fluency work

Gamify your stutter/fluency work I definitely know what it’s like feeling burned out and tired of trying, and feeling constantly defeated or swimming upstream with speech. I think at least some of this has to do with competing with an “ideal” imagination of how our speech “could” or “should” be. I’ve found that gamifying my speech, in the sense of making little adjustments and seeing what happens, approaching it from a “beginner’s mind” and a disposition of curiosity actually makes talking fun, or at least more fun than it would be otherwise lol. So I might try a new supplement for a while and see what happens. Or I might try some strategies to stay in the moment vs dissociating when I’m talking, or I might mess around with how my facial expression changes my mood and speech, etc. Just some thoughts
