Mewing basics: suction your entire tongue against the roof of your mouth all day
Suction your entire tongue tip-to-base against the palate during all activities. The book Jaws shows dramatic facial changes from mewing.
"Their entire faces changed. They became more symmetrical. Jaws became more square and defined in men."
Mouth taping forces proper tongue posture and nasal breathing during sleep
Mouth taping forces nasal breathing and better tongue posture during sleep. Also chew food 25-40 times per bite.
"Mouth taping, one of the reasons it works so well with helping you get better sleep and better oxygenation is it does force you into a little bit better tongue posture."
