Of course they can speak without this. Thing is, our brains are wired differently and sometimes need extra assistance. One way to do that is by manually building up air pressure as I described. For me...
Firstly, saying that one should breathe “deeply” is not right. The thing that’s required here is natural breathing, just like how one would breathe before singing out a short line from a song. Secondl...
Interesting theory. So you're saying : inhale deeoly → pause for 1 second → start speaking Have I got that correct? Break down the process into simple steps....
[Hypothesis] Adequate air pressure buildup immediately after breathing
[Hypothesis] Adequate air pressure buildup immediately after breathing Hey guys! So as some of you know I’m on a journey to discovering a complete physiological treatment to stuttering that’s built o...
Hi! I've been struggling with the same problem, but I've learnt how to slightly avoid stuttering. This is based in personal experience; doesn't have to work for you. I grab a pen or a pencil and...
Proper preparation is key for success when giving any sort of oral presentation. This is true for people who stutter and for people who are fluent. If anyone, pws or not, tells you otherwise they are ...
Not a police officer, but I imagine a lot of assertiveness in that profession is just from knowing your job ( probably applies to any profression really) through training and experience. I guess wha...
Slow and controlled is the way. Also remember to breathe :D i run out of breath sometimes by trying to get the word out. When that happens just stop, pause for a second, breathe in and let it out like...
Practice, practice practice, role play, with basic questions, prolongation techniques, stress out words that are hard for you, speak calmly and don't be too stressed just think you are speaking with y...
Try writing out what you need to say for your presentation. If you know what you're going to say before hand, it reduces the spontaneity of speech. Next break up the words into syllables and practic...
What you're looking for is what's called a block modification technique. Here's one called "the jump". I recently found this technique and this channel recently. This channel has other useful and in...
If you think anxiety triggers the blockages, look into some things you can do to reduce situational anxiety ( breathing meditation for example). I've the same problem... I cannot get my name out, an...
When I had my interview for this job I did some breathing exercises in the lobby and told myself to remain calm don’t rush any answers and use everything you learn so far and if you do stutter just ke...
This is what helps me get past the 'freeze': When you feel you're in a situation that might cause you to freeze, slowwww down everything. Slow down your thought process, slow your movements, slow yo...
You did mention something about syllables in there too, maybe you also learned elements of prolonged speech combined with syllable timed speech? Look up that technique All of this information can be...
Good question! From what you’ve described it sounds like you may have learned a technique called prolonged speech? At first it sounds very unnatural and at times monotone, but the goal is to get the t...
That's what I've been working on for the past year on my own. I definitely feel a difference just being more conscious before I speak, but I thought in therapy they teach you to articulate words diff...
Meh, I do not stutter at all with my speech therapists, so they just give advice and strategies, but nothing works except for talking slowly and being more confident...
My hypothesis is that the abs are not engaged well during the production of these sounds. Keep your belly reasonably expanded (after you inhale) as you say those sounds. And make sure it really does s...
This is great! Speech therapy is like physical exercise. If you stop going to the gym, you will loose fitness. If you stop practicing the tools that help keep you fluent, you will become less fluent...
