Video making and its associated benefits for stutterers

         Among all the mediums of communication videos has been the most effective
as it is almost being live to the audience followed by the audios and write
ups. The things we watch can penetrate into deeper consciousness than the
things we hear that is why people want to meet and have face-to-face
conversation.

As a stutterer I know and feel that seeing myself in videos gives me
better understanding of my behaviors and patterns associated at different
moments. I often record my voice over the phone or when someone checks into my room
and we have a conversation because at that moment recording videos is highly
uncalled for.

Practice to make your videos and watch them as many times as you can and
within some days attitudinal difference shall dawn upon you. It has happened to
many people including me and has been suggested in all the therapies available
today.

Why don’t we make videos when there are so many benefits attached.Reason
is ‘we are ashamed of seeing our-self stuttering helplessly’. If we are not
accepted by our own soul, is it worth expecting from other?All the philosophers
and all the faiths are agree that world around us is manifestation of our own
self. This implies the day we will accept our nature in its pristine form,the
world around us would change in accordance with the divine rule.

        Nowadays most of us have multimedia phones that could be used as a tool
to record videos. Just set the mobile phone in video recording mode and put it
with support at nearby table or raised place. Sit at the comfortable distance
and talk Alone or with your friend, brother or neighbor. Replay that video as
many times as you can over some days till you stop feeling ashamed of watching
yourself stutter in that video. The key point is the day you stop feeling
guilty or ashamed of your stammering, believe me, inner transformation shall
begin.

        After some years when you watch your old videos, seeing how you stuttered
and how you spoke in past shall give you immense satisfaction because now you
are watching with the same eyes but with the different ‘YOU’.

Please let me know your opinions through comments.
