I saw a similar post some time not long ago. My answer was yes but practice alone. Most PWS do not block when reading out loud and alone. Without further explanation, I read on a book that it helps ...

¿Don´t you agree that is amazing that we can talk 100% fluent when alone but the minute another person enters the room (or even the posibility) we instantly block? What a strange neurological/genetic...

Great for you. For me is the opposite as your mother said: **Do not think about what you need to say next.** You don´t need to think about it because you already know. It´s on your mind how would you...

I’m pretty sceptical of the “cures” people like Dizpenza claim. But I do know that meditation in general is known to reduce stress, which is good for anyone and everyone. I highly doubt he healed his ...

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 info...

I feel it was worth doing for me especially since I was trying to speak differently in a way that contributed to (even if ever so slightly), more fluency. I use to practice speaking with softer, slowe...
