First online study program to help fear of stammering

July 21, 2010 - PRLog -- Speech Bloom is a comprehensive, interactive study program, which teaches people who stammer specialised cognitive skills to take control of negative thoughts about stammering, and learn and develop new, positive, and empowering ways of thinking. The self-development program will allow them to understand how negative emotions, such as anxiety, are created about stammering, and learn how to replace them with increased self-confidence, and esteem. According to Alan Read of Saeol Ltd, “Dealing with negative emotions is a key step forward to coping with stammering”.  

Stammering affects approximately over 1% of people across the globe.  Trying to cope with the impact of stammering on a daily basis can have a negative impact on a person. Common speaking situations such as meeting friends, chatting to colleagues at work, or even ordering a takeaway over the telephone, can result in experiencing negative emotions such as fear, anxiety and helplessness, and feelings of loss of control, and embarrassment.

The popularity of internet communication, however, is helping to change the situation. The World Wide Web contains a vast array of online resources and information about stammering. Bloggers are blogging about stammering awareness, Yahoo Forum members share experiences, Facebook Pages and Groups have people chatting away, making friends across the other side of the world. Five years ago, this was not the case. These developments have inevitably led to new and innovative online services and programs available to people who stammer.

Available completely online, Speech Bloom is the first of its kind, and simple to use study program, which offers a roadmap towards a more confident and empowered self – all in the comfort of your own space and time.
