exactly. Your current stutter habit is: \- if you speak, you have a feeling in chest/belly that your body (instinct) interprets as 'I will stutter' - correct? ​ So, these are existing techniques (in psychology) to change this perspective and response: **Exercise 1:** Every time, before you stutter, observe this feeling (of shame, guilt) in the chest/belly without reacting while stopping compulsion. Then your body and instinct will learn that this feeling is not fearful or true. ​ **Exercise 2:** Replace the discomfort of the chest/belly feeling (that your body interprets as 'I will stutter now') with a happy feeling that your body interprets as 'I will speak more automatic and natural without compulsion' ​ **Exercise 3:** Replace your fight or flight response with an excited feeling of speaking more relaxed, clearer and getting the message across more effeciently. ​ **Exercise 4**: Every time you feel this discomfort in your chest/belly, observe it and tell yourself: 1. 'this feeling doesn't have a meaning''this feeling causes my stuttering right now ''this feeling leads to a stutter anticipation' 2. so what? My instinct says 'this feeling means I will stutter', so what? I don't care. 3. Let the feeling be there (don't remove it) otherwise you don't build tolerance against it. Really experience this negative feeling to learn from it (experiential understanding) to become tolerant against it 4. observe this feeling and understand that this thought 'I will stutter now' is not your personal thought but your system's thought that is associated to your belly/chest's feeling
