[Research](https://www.reddit.com/r/Stutter/comments/161bj9m/tips_to_improve_stuttering_from_the_research/): "*Unassisted recovery from stuttering: Self-perceptions of current speech behavior, attitudes, and feelings*" (don't be vigilant for fluency, believe your speech is normal, and let go of stuttering concerns. Don't implement cognitive effort for normal fluency, avoid strategies for dealing with stuttering, have no barriers to communication, combat feelings of helplessness by believing in your ability to regain fluency, focus on effective communication strategies instead of focusing on strategies to gain more fluency, develop positive attitudes toward speaking situations and communication, challenge the belief that complete recovery is unlikely, boost self-worth and decrease helplessness) [Research](https://www.reddit.com/r/Stutter/comments/160i3yk/tips_to_improve_stuttering_from_the_research/): "*Recovery from stuttering: The contributions of the qualitative research approach*" by Finn (work on active cognitive and behavioural self-changes; modify your speech, thoughts or feelings; increase motivation to recover; maintain a perception as a normal speaker; believe in recovery; change your tendency to stutter) [Research](https://www.reddit.com/r/Stutter/comments/15zsh9m/tips_to_improve_stuttering_from_the_research/): "*Neural change, stuttering treatment, and recovery from stuttering*" by Ingham and Finn (apply strategies that promote plastic compensation for function loss, avoid excessive abnormal motor coordination attempts, minimize excessive speech outcome monitoring) **Conclusion:** So for some stutterers, small subtle changes in mindset/attitude led them to achieve stuttering remission. Yet for others, a stutter technique led them to enough confidence in their ability to control their speech - long enough that it eventually led to stuttering remission. So personally I think addressing one's mindset/attitude can in some cases resolve the internal conflict (or anticipated errors) and bypass certain triggers of stuttering, and thus break the vicious circle of "stuttering persistence", I argue.
