I just try to focus on relaxing my breathing, and all the muscles that I can as well, all over my body. Try to get rid of all tension. Don't try to force words out, it just reinforces the stuttering habits! It really is a mind game. When I don't focus on the technique of speaking, but instead let the urge to speak take over, the blocking goes away!
