Mewing x Hard Chewing
What is mewing?
Mewing is the action of the tongue pushing on the maxilla. It promotes horizontal and forward growth of the face. (Wider midface and projecting jawline). Not mewing entails having the tongue on the bottom of the mouth and possibly an open mouth.

Balance it the key to a harmonious and handsome face!
Balance- It is easy to get carried away by the results you are seeing either by your mewing or by your chewing alone. It is important though to keep them BOTH in check. Developing the one while the other lacks will create imbalances in the long run!
What is Tongue Chewing?
Tongue Chewing is a great way to strengthen your tongue to make mewing and correct posture easier. Instead of chewing the gum, you make a ball and you push it on the top of your palate. This exercise will help you increase your mewing results and will get you up to speed if you have only been chewing!
