Great comment! In reply to your message, this is my attempt to create simple instructions to apply to speech. **Simple instructions:** 1. Self-confirm that avoiding your desire or urge to immediately execute motor movements directly leads to a speech block (goal: this may reduce distraction or **escape** from the root cause) 2. Replace '*waiting out execution of speech movements*' with '*instructing your brain to immediately execute speech movements whenever you have the urge or desire*'. (note: desire in this context is not a feeling, but it means '**should or need to do something**') 3. Don't avoid articulatory starting positions at all 4. Associate the tension/pain with '*I need to measure tension or air pressure*' (instead of blaming genetics or another **escape**) 5. Stop using the phrase "*I am stuck*" or "*I don't have the ability to execute motor movements*" during a speech block (because this is simply reinforcing **escape** from the root cause) 6. Interrupt the '*activated program in the brain*' that is measuring tension or air pressure 7. Observe your triggers 8. Don't apply a condition whereby you wait out execution of speech movements 9. Don't wait out execution of speech movements because of anticipation, thoughts, feelings, or sensations 10. Don't rely on '*feeling in control*' or '*feeling confident*'. Why? Argument: because we should not link speech performance to self-esteem. Additionally, 'feelings' should not interrupt us when doing basic actions such as '*instructing to execute motor movements*' (that non-stutterers also apply) 11. Do you notice, during a speech block, that you demand (or need) to feel tension, or rather glottal air pressure against the speech muscles to decide whether to hold back speech? Answer: in my case, yes, if I perceive too much/little tension or air pressure, then I stop instructing to execute speech movements (*aka I block*). So, instead of waiting out articulation by relying on these sensations, execute articulation immediately whenever we have the urge or **desire** to say a word. Note: Regular people don't have (1) a longing feeling of desire to speak fluently in the future, and (2) don't hope or wish to speak with less blocks in the future. Instead (3) they have **the urge or desire** to immediately execute articulation. Therefore, my definition of desire leans more towards (3) **the urge or need** 12. The negative effect of avoiding this desire, is that we make a habit of adopting unhelpful timing methods based off of holding back speech (which maintains the problem of waiting out articulation). In other words, reducing the desire to maintain fluency, will likely result in unhelpful beliefs/attitudes to wait out speech (that is then not based on speaking immediately on the timing the moment when we have a desire to say a word). So, avoiding this desire leads to developing a stutter disorder. Debate me on this. Prove me wrong! Often people who stutter advice to avoid this desire. However, I argue that avoiding this desire reinforces justifying the stutter program. Stuttering is not something to be ashamed of or afraid of, but I often say that we want to respect our desire to speak fluently, freely, assertively and expressively as well. Sometimes when people say "*I accept stuttering and I don't want fluency*" they kind of reject that desire. But stuttering actually proves that desire. Once we have lack of something it creates desire The goal of these instructions is to develop the ability to immediately instruct/decide to send command signals to the brain to execute motor movements, by combining it with stress management. In this way the instructions contain both elements of feedforward control and feedback control.
