It's been so long I honestly can't remember what I talked about ::blushes:: Yeah that is fascinating and very revealing I think. The anticipation is feeling that stoppage/block before even saying anything. Feeling that if we say this in this state it's not happening or a bigger struggle than it needs to be. William Parry's video is very interesting tying it to humans seeing a lion but the most fascinating thing was being able to still whisper! It's true as far as I know! I remember in my earlier time with sales I practically whispered when a costumer came out of the door and I was so nervous, I spoke like I was speaking kindly and gently to a baby and when I'd feel the stoppage I remembered the video and lowered my voice to a whisper and felt shocked that it came out! But then other experiences feel like it's not a full blown stoppage and I can give a harder breath to get it out. But I wonder if it's the breath or forcing the speech area to stay open and not tighten out. I enjoy brain storming this stuff and coming up with ideas or tests although the best feeling is probably not caring at all about it.
