Hi I was very interested to read this article as I am a speech and lanaguage therapist working in the UK who has also trained to become a mindfulness teacher. I have taught an eight week mindfulness based cognitive therapy course for people who stammer three times now and participants have reported a range of positive outcomes. The course is heavily based on Jon Kabat Zinn's MBSR course. I have also introduced mindfulness practices into mainstream speech therapy courses. If anyone wants to mail me I am on carolyn.cheasman@citylit.ac.uk. I would love to share some of this work with people in other countries.
