Developed through the author's own struggles, readers   learn to alter breathing patterns while incorporating mental strategies to   maintain fluent speech. This complete program quickly and dramatically   improves verbal fluency while the sufferer gains self-esteem, from learning   to control the physical and mental aspects of dysfunctional breathing.     Now revised and updated, the   McGuire Programme is an internationally recognised method that not only   improves speech, but offers the enjoyment, not the dread, of speaking. a   series of breathing and diaphragm exercises that breaks the self-perpetuating   cycle of stuttering. Uniquely, the McGuire Programme combines physical   techniques (breathing and relaxation) with mental strategies for dealing with   the fear of stammering, as well as how to develop an assertive attitude to   the problem.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49513031106833,"sku":"GOR001844551","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50347678990609,"sku":"CIN0285636731G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50700606472465,"sku":"GOR007077396","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0285636731.jpg?v=1751101620"},{"product_id":"beyond-stuttering-book-dave-mcguire-9780285642843","title":"Beyond Stuttering","description":"The McGuire Programme was founded in 1994 by Dave McGuire and is now an international organisation run by people who stutter to help other people who stutter.
