Mastering Blocking and Stuttering: A Guide to Achieving Fluency (2004) by Bobby G. Bodenhamer, D.Min.
Have you ever
wondered why most people who block and stutter do not stammer every time they
speak? Indeed, most people who stammer are consistently fluent in certain
contexts. When by themselves, speaking to a pet or speaking to a person with
whom they are comfortable they speak fluently. This has been a puzzle for people
who stammer and for speech pathologists for many years.
Now the puzzle has finally been solved by this outstanding new book which
details a completely new approach to treating this debilitating condition. Bob
Bodenhamer explains that this phenomenon results from the thinking (cognition)
of the stutter as he or she associates speaking with a lot of fear and anxiety
about blocking. Most blocking is no more than a panic attack expressed in the
muscles that control breathing and speaking. This book both explains the
structure of blocking and provides the tools for gaining more fluency.

developing your own emotional intelligence about mastering your
fears. To achieve that, we have made this book about NLP and
Neuro-Semantics. To that extent, this is a book about state of the art
techniques (patterns, processes, "games") for developing an
intelligent, courageous, and informed way for handling fearful objects,
events, people, and ideas.
You will learn that emotions are just that--emotions. They are not absolute messages from Heaven about what to do. They only tell you the difference between how you have mapped the way things should go and your experience of the way things actually go. You will discover that you are more than your emotions. They make up a valuable part of you, but you are more them what you feel. And, feelings can misguide you.
You will learn about how to Quality Control your brain. After you detect an emotion, check out its accuracy and validity, then you still need to explore it in terms of its "ecology."
- Does it really serve you?
- Does it enhance your life?
- Will it empower you as a person?

Dragon Slaying: Dragons
to Princes
- Second Edition (2000)
by L. Michael Hall, Ph.D. What
do you do when you get into a Dragon State? How do you respond when
fear, anger, guilt, shame, and other negative emotions become the very
frame of your mind? What then? How well do you handle feeling fearful
about your anger, guilting your sadness, depressed about your guilt and
other meta-muddle convoluted states? Dragon Slaying describes a
cutting-edge model of the mind, Meta-States which will enable you to
take control of your mind at all of its reflexive levels. Dr. Michael
hall will guide you to becoming a Dragon Master so that you can
tame, transform, and slay the Dragons that would otherwise torture and
sabotage.
I wrote Dragon Slaying because we humans so easily and frequently find ourselves in emotional states and states of mind that we can only call "Dragon states." I wrote it also because by using Meta-States we can fairly easily get ourselves out of those states. Would you like to have that kind of power and elegance in managing your states? You can. With the Meta-States Model (which you'll learn about in this book), you will be able to consciously shift from a dragon-like state and put yourself into a princely state.
