Found a new strategy to reduce stutter that I wanted to share I realized by accident that when I stutter my epiglottis closes and that my breathing mechanism become really tense, as well as my chest. So I tried to actively think about loosen up, keep my airways open, and focus on breathing out with the words as they come and then breath in without saying anything. Miraculously this has reduced my stuttering by 90% the last days. Do you guys have any experience with breathing techniques? Have strangely never really heard about it before.
