Break the Matrix

How often per day do you 'mew'? Do you just try to be mindful of keeping your tongue (back and front) on the roof? Or do you press hard against the roof to encourage growth? Could you break down the specifics of what we should be doing daily?

I rest my tongue at the roof, pretty much all the time. Sometimes when I sit in front of the computer (daily) I press hard against the palate. For like a few minutes every time, a few times a day usually. I also used to use my thumbs to press up at the palate, but I have quit this, now I just use my tongue. All I did was using my tongue to press up at the palate, and over time the maxilla got lifted up, there is now more space in my mouth. I also try to keep my teeth touching together 6-8 hours a day, since this is what Mike Mew recommended. For the rest of the time my teeth is almost touching, lips together, tongue up at the roof. The bones will move if you put pressure on them over time, the tongue is the perfect tool to use. I am now resting my tongue more to the right because my right side looks slightly behind my left part of the face.

I also think you can widen the palate with the tongue over time. I am trying that out now, by pressing my tongue up and to the side at the jaw bone that the teeth are on if you know what I mean.

gotta start imminent fasting again before I go bald (yes, that helps my hair to grow)

You mean intermittent fasting? How does it help tho, havent read anything regarding that prospect

Yes, thats correct haha. I dunno why it help, but it does for me. A week of intermittent fasting and new hairs start growing out. The body goes into another mode when you havenīt eaten for a while, lowers insulin and other stuff I think. Think it has something to do with that, but I dunno

I was writing a long reply, turns out during the process I have gotten distracted and discarded it(that before you posted the pics). I cant notice the exact difference, but feel that there is some present. Sadly, your haircut plays such a huge role in the change, that it alone has made much more difference compared to what the mewing has made and fades everything in comparison, so the result is that I cant notice the exact changes.

Yeah, itīs difficult to see any changed based on these bad pics, but I can assure you that my face have changed quite a lot from change in oral posture. Looking at those pics made me miss my long hair hehe, gotta start imminent fasting again before I go bald (yes, that helps my hair to grow)

Hey, Iīm new to this forum, but not to this topic. I have always had a good long mandible and a wide dental palate, but my maxilla was recessed compared to my mandible. I have always been breathing through my nose as far as I can remember, but I think my tongue was not resting properly at the roof. Not at the bottom of the mouth either, but kind of somewhere in the middle if this makes sense.

I came across mewing ca 10 months ago, and I have rested my tongue at the roof since. I have also pressed the tongue with force against the palate throughout the day when I had nothing else to do. It took me a while to get the oral posture right, especially the back of the tongue up. I could notice changes already after 2 months or so. One day when I woke up and touched my upper face, I could feel bones that had become a lot more protruding.

I used to have dark circles under my eyes, but they are almost completely gone now. Instead there are now bones where those circles were. My under eye support have improved a lot! My maxilla have been lifted up and come forward, Iīm 100% certain that this is the case. It just feels good overall, I can breathe with ease, and it feels like my athletic ability have improved (not sure of this though) What I am sure of is that my singing ability have improved. I can hit higher notes easier and the resonance in my voice feels more fuller. My whole face has shortened for sure. I even think my skull and forehead have changed (yes, it sounds far stretched, but it feels like my forehead have also shortened)

Iīm glad I came across this topic 10 months ago. And I can say with certainty that correct oral posture have moved my bones up and forward. Iīm not claiming it will work for everyone, but it sure worked on me. But keep in mind my mandible and chin was not recessed at all, just my maxilla. I wish you all the best! There is hope, even though the process might take some time. And I think it will be more difficult for people that have a very recessed mandible, but not impossible. You should try at least to maintain correct oral posture, so at least your face wonīt worsen. Best wishes to you all


I forgot to tell you, but maybe around month 4 of mewing. I got what I heard someone call the duck face. In this phase the area of the lips were protruding a lot. I dunno why, but maybe my maxilla was so far down there and I have later pushed it up? This lasted for almost a month or so, and its gone now. It feels like my maxilla have been moving up and up the longer I have been at it, and that the center is now more around the nose area, not the lips. It was downward swung, but now itīs upwards swung, in other words.

Will post some pics in next post
