Shame and embarrassment needs to be conquered to have total acceptance of ourselves with our stammering. How total acceptance of stammering will come if we are not open towards our stammering?

When I was a child, teachers to me, were like Gods on earth. I was small- they were BIG. But of course sometime they were quite disappointing! I think there are two reasons. A teacher does not get the same respect and privileges as a doctor or bureaucrat today, even though the work s/he is […]

We started at around 6:20 AM, and started jogging. Jogging by definition should have such a speed where you can easily converse with a fellow runner. After a couple of rounds, Sanjeet and Sachin stopped. I for being younger was made to run a couple of rounds more. I obliged happily. After few minutes, Vivek […]
After discussing Shehaan’s stuttering iceberg with Keith and thinking about whether its really a stuttering or a communication iceberg, I also feel like extending this to avoidance. Yes we should work on avoiding all avoidance but then are all avoidance stammering related? Don’t we avoid to speak many a times despite the fact that we […]
We started at 6:30 AM, and left for jogging. We warmed up slowly and did some stretches. Then Sachin did some real tough karate blocks.

WIth the novel hope to be very comfortable in speaking, we, the group of 7 members, began with Yoga and Meditation to be relaxed to ensure that we take proper breathe to speak. Further, the movie, “Unspeakable.” reminded us that we are not the only people who stutter, so it is certain that all over […]
