The immediate and scientifically sound way to address this is to *begin speaking on an exhale*. Then, your lungs will mostly automatically modulate the air pressure so there’s no need to focus on bre...

It's pretty common for stuttering to co-occur with something else. For about half of people who stutter, there is some co-occurring condition. However, it can make both diagnosis and treatment more co...

Have you ever thought that *I regularly say to not take deep breaths*? Also, there are other steps, and they have to be done together, and it takes time to see results...

Right… it only ducking works after doing it consistently for weeks/months. And slowly build up to doing ALL of it. Do you even know what I told you to do??...

But try avoid this as you don’t want to get to dependant on it, it’s more of a last minute resort, try different ways of saying the sentence that work better for you and your stutter...

Singing and stuttering

Singing and stuttering I’ve read some stuff that the brain uses a different part for singing which is why we don’t stutter whilst singing, and I’m wondering if anyone uses techniques that involve sing...

Why has no one commented on this??? Folks, the information in this video is free, and it gives you the basic tools that can help you speak with more control and fluency. I believe that if you have a...

The main point of my comment was to say that focusing on inhales will not work and will probably make the problem worse (as you have basically said yourself) Focus on exhales, pretty much always. Be...

Sorry, I didn't clarify that. I meant to have a good inhale but speak on the exhale and your stomach will naturally deflate as it pushes the air out. I saw someone say to "think of it as a balloon" an...

Additionally, speech therapists advocate to keep instructing ourselves to *push out* air during a block - I disagree, in my opinion, because this is an unhelpful attitude that will worsen the *stutter...
