I participated in a workshop with people who stutter, and for us the main theme is fear and avoidance. Mainly we fear and avoid the speaking situations. This also has a lot to do if we accept our speech (including when stuttering) or not. The interesting thing is when people accept their stuttering and stop avoiding, then they mostly don't stutter any longer. But for many people it seems almost impossible to get to that point. What are some hints that we can use while dealing with fear and avoidance?
Is it possible to design games for the brain utilizing Neuroplasticity so that it's users will profit from them in the long term? Based on today's studies, and if they differ from your opinion I would like to hear both if possible. Answer would be super appreciated, thank you Dr!!!! :)
Is there a protocol that is helpful for situations/circumstances when one panics and is required to have a clear head to make an instant and important decision? I am talking in cases of emergencies for example when there is a fire, or when you forget your passports in the hotel and need to rush back to get them before missing your flight. I find myself in situations where I struggle to keep a clear head to be able to quickly think of a plan. What ends up happening is that when the situation is resolved, I can feel the tension that’s been built up in my body and it’s a horrible feeling (nausea and general discomfort). Is there a protocol to alleviate those symptoms too?
