Thanks for your comment, Eric. You wrote: “It's as Gallwey says in his books, that when you are driving, you do not consciously think of putting on your blinker, switching the radio stations, and such. You just do it. With stuttering, maybe that is the key, to just do it and not think about it as much.” I think that is an important part of the story. It is also important to be able to have self-awareness without self-doubt and over-tightening. Before reading about the inner game books I always thought speech consciousness was the problem because I never blocked when my mind was focused on something other than my speech. But now I think the underlying problem is self-doubt. It is great to be able to be aware of speaking without experiencing self-doubt and interfering with the process by over-tightening.
