Sommario/riassunto

Combining mental strategies with breathing techniques, this book explains the McGuire Program, a proven technique for long-term improvement in speech and self-confidence for those who suffer from stammering. Developed through the author's own struggles, readers learn to alter breathing patterns while incorporating mental strategies to maintain fluent speech. This complete program quickly and dramatically improves verbal fluency while the sufferer gains self-esteem, from learning to control the physical and mental aspects of dysfunctional breathing.</di
