Emge, Greta; Pellowski, Mark W.
Communication Disorders Quarterly, v40 n2 p125-128 Feb 2019

Speech disfluencies were analyzed before and after mindfulness meditation and implementation of fluency shaping techniques. Findings suggested that including a mindfulness meditation exercise into a treatment program may be helpful for people who stutter.
