If stress is your biggest barrier to fluency it can't hurt. meditation pursuits sound fine for any ailment as long as it stays free/cheap. Meditation can be done affordably at home with borrowed information or in a group setting often for free. my first job was in alt health and most of it is honest things that can't hurt but are also unlikely to help. Homeopathy is a good example of this. if anyone tells you VERY diluted water cured them take that as proof of the human spirit at best and the placebo effect at worst. I left that sort of job I can't sell what I don't believe in. if it helps speech therapy never worked for me either so admittedly I am beyond help. Supposedly saying Thuhhh Caat Saaaat slowly 2 million times has cured some of you somehow so maybe the cause of my stutter is this crisis of faith!!! (heavy sarcasm is the only thing that has ever worked for me!) I asked at an unrelated neuro appt [https://www.epilepsy.com/stories/meditation-epilepsy-silent-debate-wages](https://www.epilepsy.com/stories/meditation-epilepsy-silent-debate-wages) a doctor finally told me it truly can be possible for meditation to be ineffective, uncomfortable and RARELY even dangerous!!!! (RARELY! like being unable to meditate isn't a sign of a neuro disorder or anything please don't worry about that) seriously though now... Many people enjoy the stress relief they find in meditation. you might be one of them! I'm just a rain-cloud floating by to say if it doesn't work you may not be doing anything wrong and you aren't broken. and you shouldn't pay anyone for more advice on meditation if your own pursuits don't already provide you with some benefit it may not be for you.
