The quest to stop stuttering is great for many people who stammer or stutter. There are some underlying reasons that make self-hypnosis an effective choice in your anti-stutter approach. You can quit your stutter habit when you put your mind to it.
Causes of Stuttering
If you want to stop stammering when you speak, it helps to look at the possible causes of the condition. Unfortunately, researchers have been unable to determine an exact cause for the condition. There is some evidence that there could be a genetic factor to consider.
You may be genetically prone to stutter but this does not mean that the problem has to get out of control. You can consider other possible factors that can be controlled with self-hypnosis to help you stop stuttering.
Developing Language
Developmental stutters occur when young children are learning how to speak. Most children grow out of as they mature out of this temporary period. However, some have difficulty growing out of this phase. Self-hypnosis can help if you consider how the developmental stuttering works.
The child’s mouth cannot keep up with his thoughts and he can’t stop stuttering. This can continue into adulthood. You may have thoughts that are stepping a few beats ahead of your ability to articulate them. You can take control of your thoughts through self-hypnosis.
Organizing Thought Processes
Sometimes your brain is so filled with thoughts and ideas that it becomes difficult to articulate them. The thought pattern in your mind is hurried and your articulation skills simply cannot keep up with your ideas. If you think about it, the process of articulation is very complex.
Self-hypnosis can help you organize your thought processes in order to make articulation easier. This approach is very effective because you are entering it through the subconscious mind. Once your thoughts are organized and calmed, you are better able to put your ideas into words.
Neurogenic Stutter Problems
In some cases, the person who stutters has signal problems between the muscles and nerves that control speech and the brain. The muscles used to form language do not work properly. Some postulate that this is de to lesions or abnormalities in the speech and motor region of the brain.
Stop Stuttering with Self-Hypnosis
Your stammer can get worse when you have feelings of anxiousness. It can also increase when you feel stressed, fatigued, excited or self-conscious. Self-hypnosis can effectively treat these underlying problems as you work through your stutter. When you are calm and relaxed, you are better able to articulate.
You may be able to articulate well when you sing or when you are talking to yourself. This indicates that you have great control over your speech patterns. Self-hypnosis can help you develop an approach to speaking that puts you in the frame of mind you are in when you are calm and alone or when you are singing.
You can take focus away from what you are trying to say conceptually, and focus on articulating words. The ability to stop stuttering is available in the resources of your mind.
