How to Mew Correctly?

Mewing is a technique involving proper tongue posture to improve facial structure. To mew correctly, follow these steps:

The Correct Mewing Technique

Close your mouth: Gently close your lips, ensuring your teeth are lightly touching. Avoid clenching your jaw tightly.
Tongue Position: Press your entire tongue, including the back, firmly against the roof of your mouth. The pressure should be gentle and consistent, not forceful. The optimal placement is just behind the front teeth. Many resources suggest the tongue should be pressed against the entire palate, from the alveolar ridge (the bumpy area behind your upper teeth) to the soft palate (the soft area at the back of your mouth).
Maintain posture: Keep your tongue in this position throughout the day, even while breathing. Remember to breathe through your nose.
Check for comfort: You should feel a gentle pressure across the middle of your face, jaw, and chin. If you feel discomfort or pain, adjust your tongue position slightly.
Consistency is key: Regular practice is crucial. The benefits of mewing are usually noticed over extended periods of time.

Over-pressuring: Applying excessive force can lead to discomfort and strain. Maintain gentle pressure.
Incorrect tongue position: Ensuring your whole tongue is in contact with the palate is important; not just the tip.

Several signals indicate you're mewing correctly:

Mild facial pressure: A light pressure on your face, jaw, and chin.
Natural posture: Maintain a relaxed posture and comfortable tongue position.

Many sources emphasize the importance of consistent practice for optimal results.
