Yes. Look, I have been trying to speak like this for a few months now. A FEW MONTHS. You need to be consistent to view results. I've argued against my therapist for such a long time and now I can finally say she was right. I have an exercise for you if you want to try. •You know we can only prolong the vowels i.e a,e,i,o,u •Pick up a word, lets say: Pilot. •Now you have to take up a good breath, not too extreme, and say Piiiiiiiiiiloooooooot. •You have to prolong the i and the o. •I've been doing this 20 mins the past few months lol. •As you get better, try to say 2 or 3 words together. •But don't suffocate yourself, when you feel like you need to take a breath, take it, and then say the next word. Good luck!
