Crucial Techniques?

1.Bouncing=Predominantly,When ever we pws[People Who Stammer] are stuck on a particular word we always force the 1st sound of that word out of our vocal chords by breathing improperly from our chest or sometimes we even stop our breath and force the first sound of the word to get out of our mouth.Eventually,This increases the air pressure in our lungs and we start getting out of breathe.So, instead of doing all this ,we can stop just before the word which is difficult to speak and bounce(repeat the 1st sound) very comfortably,easily and without any stress and when we feel that now the rest of the word is also coming out , just stop bouncing and speak that word starting again from the 1st sound.For illustration, I always get stuck on the word starting from P. So, if I have to say "My name is Pawan''.Dont struggle and do not stop breathing in order to speak practice. Just repeat the first sound very softly like My name is P - P - P - P -P-a-a-ractice.Now here the repetition of the word is not like as we always do .consequence, Just speak it softly. .                                                                                                                                                              2. Diaphragm breathing= This is the most crucial one.Untill n unless you do not allow the air to pass through your Vocal cords, you cant speak.We use this technique because most of the adults have developed a bad habit of breathing from our chest.Glaringly,I found that  all the babies breathe properly from their Diaphragm or abdomen. So, when ever we stammer or get stuck,we always start to breathe from our chest or sometimes we even forget to breathe. So, just try to breath from your diaphragm.                                                                                                                                   3. Prolongation= Thirdly,prolongation is a technique that is suggested in most of the speech therapies. In this we have to stretch the first sound . Apparently, in case of practice ,we can say it as Paaaaaaaaaaaractice.Actually we have to strech the first sound but when we say practice there is always the P sound followed by aaaaaaa.                                                                                                                                                    4. Light contact =Also we people often get blocked on p sound because our lips are not opening up or separating out. So there must be a light contact of our lips when we are dealing with sounds like p,b etc.and eventually, apply the light contact method on p,b etc likepaaaaaaractice,baaaaasket.                                                                                                                                                         5.Cancellation=This is used if in case we forgot to apply our techniques on a difficult or feared
word.and we are stuck on that feared word.In this we have to stop in between our block on this word , take a deep breath and then start again speaking out that word but this time we will use our techniques and speak out that particular word with ease and light contact etc.for eg, my name Pa-a-a-  stop here. Take a deep breath. Then start with the technique with which you are comfortable.Like i am comfortable with light contact in case of P . So, I would say Phhhractice. nevertheless,you need not to repeat the complete sentence again. Just repeat the word on which you get stuck .
