Exercises to overcome stuttering (or at least to be more fluent)?

Exercises to overcome stuttering (or at least to be more fluent)? Does anyone of you have any exercises to help overcome stuttering and especially speech blocks? Like for example, should I read out lo...

That sounds great! I haven't done it to that extent, but I do go over words being very mindful of what each muscle is doing, what sensations occur during every part of the process. Within that, I mi...

taking a deep breath really helps since when we feel like our blocks arebeing too much we tend to get annoyed and rushing to finish our sentence immediately making the blocks works. stopping and takin...

Personally, I feel that improving your breathing skills is worth pursuing. I was a 100% mouth breather. I felt that my inhale via my mouth was wrong and part of the problem. To the point that I was ...

Let me start by saying that my stutter is waaaaaay better than before, and that like you, I noticed that my breathing was a big part of the issue. I actually had almost the same train of thought as ...

The fear,anxiety,humiliation and embarrassment caused by stuttering can be crippling. Only someone with stutter can understand your pain. What helped me deal with fear and anxiety was starting med...

The recording yourself helps because the anxiety of the stammer makes me (not everyone) quite tense in certain situations, and as such, makes the blocking worse. So practicing, and recording myself de...

If you can describe it in more detail I think it will be interesting for a lot of people in this forum. Do you simply make breathing exercises or do you combine them with speaking sounds? How exact...

So… diaphragmatic breathing exercises, I record myself talking in certain situations to retrain my brain to normalise speaking in real life situations and to try to remove the fear, and I have adjuste...

That is one problem with the technique—part of why it works is because you are speaking in a rhythm, so how can one achieve fluency at the start of a sentence when no rhythm has been started? The answ...

Just try to exhale before you speak, that has helped me tremendously I sometimes tap my foot to each word to help me keep a good pace Maybe practice introducing yourself to family, the more you mo...

Yes. Try and practice recording yourself on your phone and go from there. Anxiety and stress can worsen the stammer and I personally find that the more confident I am, the less my stammer affects me...

Great question! From what I gathered, I have extracted a few key points and then I put them into my own words below. Perhaps it will be helpful for improving your stuttering also! **Here are my perso...

Before you speak do a small exhale of breath, this will help you relax. Do practice interviews with loved ones and try to practice the exhale and speak more even paced. Maybe tap your foot to each ...

Can you divert to your hands instead as this wouldn’t look as strange….in the kindest way. I completely understand. I think practice speaking, breathing exercises and even singing or chewing gum to re...

I cant talk properly with anyone.Yesterday at an exam,I met my senior and he asked me who my class teachers were and I couldn't even speak the name of one and he laughed at my poor memory and went awa...

I do, yes. I always will have blocks but they're getting better each day. I only block when I think about blocking, but it's not like I block for 5-10 seconds, maybe a second. If fear controls me, th...
