Stammering is a PORTAL..

“Unable to resolve the doubts, I ran to my spiritual guide. He, too, said, “Your trouble is not physical.” The implications of that statement hit me like a ton of bricks. I had refused to see or accept the truth for nearly 40 years. My world consisted only of the painful past or negative imaginings […]

Letting the secret out in the NEW YEAR!

The other day I spoke to JP and soon after, to Dhruv. JP and I shared a little joke: It seems TISA is creating a need where none exists! If Stammering is a diversity – let us shut up and go home! (Well, going ho-ho-home is not that easy. And this issue is a lot […]
