Mewing Tongue Posture – How to Do it Safely & Get Fast Results

• Allergies and nasal congestion

• Lack of cardiovascular exercises during childhood

• Poor diet leading to excess mucus and constricted sinuses

• Unawareness of how one should breath 

 

😛 Loose Tongue

The correct positioning of the tongue doesn't come naturally to modern generations because of:

• Thumb sucking during infancy and childhood

• Lack of tough foods- leading to weak jaw muscles

• Bad back posture due to sedentary lifestyles- too much sitting etc

 

 

 

Correct Tongue Posture in 5 Steps

Think of correct oral posture as a process with a few steps:

 

1. 📚 Learn the 5 Steps of Mewing

The correct tongue posture is impossible if you're not doing all 5 steps.

Forgetting a step is the main reason people struggle to position their tongue correctly.

 

2. 👃 Breathe Through Your Nose

The first step of mewing is to seal your lips lightly, AKA close your mouth!

How are you going to survive if you can't breathe through your nose?!

You'll have to become comfortable breathing through your nose deeply before you can hold your tongue against the roof of the mouth.

   

3. 👅 Get "Some" of Your Tongue Up Against Your Palate

Your tongue isn't ready for the entirely correct tongue placement.

Stretching your entire tongue against the roof of the mouth can be painful and even impossible for mewing beginners.

You'll need to start by just putting as much of your tongue against the palate as you can.

Maybe it's just the tip, that's a start.

Get used to deep nose breathing while having part of your tongue held against your palate.

Try to get more of your tongue up every day, don't worry if progress is slow.

  

4. 🤩 Put The Back Part of Your Tongue Up Against Your Palate

Your neck, jaw and tongue have gotten flexible and strong.

Now you're ready for the full oral posture.

Place your entire tongue (at least 80% of it) against your palate, and hold it there with a mixture of suction and pressure.

Breathe deeply through your nose and stand up straight.

Try to maintain this position for most of the day.

Initially you'll have to think about what you're doing, but over time this will become 100% natural.

  

5. ✅ You're Mewing! Don't Stop!

Woohoo!

Finally!

You're doing the proper mewing tongue posture and not making any mewing mistakes.

Your new tongue posture may be uncomfortable for the first few weeks or months...

But DON'T let that stop you doing it. It will get easy every week until you don't even know you are doing it.

You'll never have to think about it again, it will be natural!

You can also consider accelerating your results with hard mewing.

But please read this article first because hard mewing can lead to facial asymmetry and deformities 👇

What If I STILL Can't Do The Correct Mewing Tongue Posture?

 

Don't stress. Keep these things in mind:

👻 Nobody Can Do it Straight Away

Your tongue, neck and jaw muscles are strong enough or flexible enough.

They'll need to adjust.

😍 You'll Look Amazing

The struggle will be worth it.

Mewing will make you healthier and more attractive.

Did you think that would be easy?

❗️ It Took Me 2 MONTHS!!

I was doing it wrong for the first 3 weeks, then I corrected my mistake.

But it still took another 6 weeks before I could comfortably hold the correct mewing tongue position.

It paid off in the end though.

⛔️ Risks of Incorrect Tongue Posture ⛔️

Either mew correctly or don't mew at all.

Because you can make negative changes to your facial appearance and health. Such as:

• Misalignment of teeth (crooked teeth)

• Misalignment of both upper and lower jaw

• Pain or dysfunction at the hinge of your jaw (TMJ pain)

• Loose or chipped teeth (from misalignment or pressure)

 

All these can be avoided if you make sure to avoid these tongue posture mistakes:

1. Only Putting the Tip of the Tongue Against the Palate
2. Not Learning How to Nose Breath FIRST
3. Thinking That Mewing is an "Exercise"
4. Swallowing and Then Holding That Position
5. Hard Mewing Before You Can Even Mew Correctly
6. Touching Your Front Teeth With Your Tongue
7. Having Your Mouth Too Far Open
8. Trying to Mew While Chewing and Talking
9. Pinching Your Cheeks Between Your Teeth
10. Thinking That Mewing Will Make You Look Like a Model...

3 Ways to Know if You're Mewing Correctly

The Sign Technique

Say "sing" and hold the "ng" sound at the end.

The correct mewing tongue posture is roughly the position your tongue is in when you hold that sound.

The Chin-Up Hold

Lay down on your stomach and hold your head up so that you are looking straight ahead.

Close your mouth, and try hold your whole tongue against your upper palate.

This is roughly the tongue posture you want to maintain.

The Mewing Appliance

This is a device designed to help you maintain proper tongue posture consistently.

I've never tried it and I don't see the need for it, but some people have reported finding it helpful.

I'm also skeptical of a little piece of plastic that costs $25.

If nothing works and you still aren't sure if your tongue posture is correct, try the mewing appliance.
