Read Out Loud
Read a children's book.
Read a novel.
Read an article that interests you (a physical magazine or an online article, it doesn't matter either one).
Words Starting With a Letter
Write down a word starting with a specific letter on paper or a text editor (If you're using Microsoft Windows, use Notepad or Word. If you're using Apple Mac, use TextEdit or Word).
Keep going!
Describe The Scene
Google "describe the scene", pick one and then you should describe the scene out loud.
Grammarly Website
I have used Grammarly after my stroke, and it's a game-changer for me. I love automatically checking my grammar while I'm writing an email or text message.

Conversation Between You and Your Amazon Alexa
A few lines to say include "what is the weather today?", "what is the date today?" and "what is the temperature tomorrow?".
Attend the Toastmasters Sessions
Check out the official website to see the sessions near to you.
I have been to the Toastmasters in Manchester in the UK. I know it's very daunting the first time you attend, but everyone understands you and the session goal is to improve everyone's speech.
If You Like Coffee or Tea!
Go out to a coffee shop and order something you like, "a latte, please" for example.
Finally...
Go out for a walk or something to relax you, or you love. You deserve it!
