hey everyone and welcome to top think today we're going to do a mewing tutorial so you can learn how
to get a stronger jawline now let's begin there are many techniques you can use to reshape your
body you can hit the gym and target specific muscle groups you can take up running or start
playing a sport but what about your face can you restructure your most important physical feature
the shape of your face is largely defined by your jawline now your jawline affects your mouth your
cheeks your neck and the symmetry of your entire face a strong sharp jawline is considered one of
the most attractive features by men and women around the world it's associated with strength
and athleticism as well as personality traits like confidence and charisma a weak jawline on
the other hand undermines your appearance in men and women a weak jawline significantly decreases
the attractiveness of your face ah but here's the good news if you have a weak jawline there's one
do-it-yourself technique that can change the shape of your face sometimes in a matter of weeks this
technique is called mewing in recent years mewing has skyrocketed in popularity it's one of the only
at-home techniques you can use to improve your jawline unlike so many diy tricks people have
seen real results with this simple yet powerful technique if done right it can have a profound
impact on the shape of your face but mewing is often done incorrectly many people are impatient
they want to see results right away so they don't give this transformative technique the opportunity
to work like it should in this video we're going to cover everything you need to know about
mewing we'll talk about what techniques you should use we'll dispel those myths you shouldn't believe
and we'll discuss the real results you can expect after using this technique on a regular basis
but before we get started there's one thing you need to remember mewing offers
an at-home solution to a problem that usually requires surgery or years of physical therapy
facial restructuring is a difficult thing to do and it doesn't work the same way for everyone
so mewing has its fair share of mixed reviews the scientific community continues to disagree about
whether or not viewing works the way we think your mewing experience may not go exactly as planned
for some people mewing is an easy technique that strengthens their jawline right away others
experience growing pains and struggle to see results whatever side you're on be persistent at
the end of the day that's the most important thing you can do you may not see dramatic changes right
now but if you suddenly stop mewing you never will okay let's break down the whos whats and
whys of mewing what does mewing do who invented it and why does mewing change the shape of your face
mewing changes the resting position of your tongue the vast majority of people rest their tongue on
the floor of their mouth mewing moves your tongue from the floor of your mouth to the roof of your
mouth also known as your palate but what does your tongue have to do with the shape of your jawline
your tongue is connected to several different muscle groups in your mouth jaw chin and neck
so the fitness of your tongue influences all the muscles that define your facial structure
that brings us to our first myth about mewing some people say everyone should practice mewing
but it's not always necessary mewing alters the resting position of your tongue but some
people's tongues are already in the right spot you may be one of the few people whose tongue
rests naturally on the roof of your mouth if you're not sure there's a pretty easy way to
find out just close your mouth relax your face and let your tongue rest where it's most comfortable
is it on the floor of your mouth or flat against your palate if your tongue sits on the roof of
your mouth your tongue is right where it needs to be but if your tongue falls to the floor then your
tongue has poor posture and that poor posture weakens the muscles in your jaw chin and neck
by changing the position of your tongue you can strengthen those muscles and sculpt a sharper
jawline this comes from the founder of mewing himself an orthodontist named john mew john mu
coined the term mewing after noticing how the placement of a person's tongue impacts their
jawline mew began teaching people about his technique and some people were seeing amazing
results by influencing the resting position of their tongue their jawline was changing
significantly it sounds pretty easy right if all you have to do is move your tongue to the top of
your mouth why do you need a detailed tutorial to answer that question let's do a little experiment
let your tongue rest on the bottom of your mouth then raise your tongue to the roof of your mouth
not just the tip of your tongue your whole tongue so that it lays flat against your palate can you
do it most people can't chances are your tongue isn't strong or flexible enough to close the gap
and that's because you've been neglecting these muscles for years right now they're weak so the
first few times you try mewing it's going to be difficult you may feel tension in the muscles
around your mouth and jaw you may only get so far as the tip of your tongue but that's okay
just like working your arms and legs at the gym you need to push those muscles to
get a good workout that workout may leave you feeling a little sore afterwards but by mewing
consistently you can target those weak muscles and improve your facial structure so how do you mew
first loosen and exercise your tongue move your tongue from one side of your mouth to the other
touch the bottom then touch the top don't worry about pushing your tongue into any difficult
positions just yet right now all you're trying to do is improve your control over your tongue
most people aren't used to moving their tongue on purpose we move our tongue when we talk when we
eat and when we drink but that's all unconscious your tongue moves without thinking but when you
have to consciously move your tongue it can feel awkward or uncomfortable that's why it's important
to start with these simple exercises okay after a couple of minutes of moving your tongue around
raise your tongue to the roof of your mouth start by placing the tip of your tongue behind your
upper teeth then try to cover your palate with your tongue make sure you're engaging your entire
tongue not just the front the back third is where most people fall short but the back third of your
tongue engages muscles in your jaw and neck so make sure to give that section a good workout
now as you hold your tongue against your palate you may feel like letting it fall back to the
floor but that's the bad habit we're trying to fix here's another popular myth about mewing
many people think mewing is about teaching your tongue to do something new but your tongue belongs
on the roof of your mouth years ago your tongue sat on your palate without a second thought
but somewhere along the way you picked up a bad habit and your tongue fell to the floor you've
been maintaining that bad habit for years and your jawline has paid the price it's a lot like
the posture of your spine your spine is designed to sit upright yet many people develop a bad habit
slouching they slouch all their lives until the muscles around their spine are too weak to sit
up straight and tall because those muscles have gotten weaker their bodies have changed shape
in the same way your tongue is not strong enough to rest in its most comfortable position mewing
helps your tongue rediscover its proper posture no matter how badly you want to let your tongue fall
back to the floor of your mouth don't just keep your tongue as close to the roof of your mouth
as you can for some people mewing works best as a regimented exercise here's a simple mewing routine
you can follow every day each time you raise your tongue to the roof of your mouth hold it there
for at least 15 seconds repeat this exercise 10 times in the morning 10 times around noon and 10
times in the evening the goal of this exercise is to increase the flexibility of your tongue
once it gets a little more flexible try mewing while doing other activities mew while you work
study or answer emails mew while you cook watch tv or walk your dog infuse mewing into your schedule
because that repetition creates consistency and consistency yields results over time your tongue
will get stronger closing that gap will get easier and easier because your muscles are growing now
when you start to see results you may feel like stopping but until your tongue rests naturally
on the roof of your mouth keep mewing on a daily basis if it starts to feel too easy then challenge
your tongue to mew in difficult situations mew while you drink mew while you're talking
to friends or working on an important project slowly but surely it'll feel like second nature
eventually you'll unconsciously rest your tongue against your palate your tongue will feel more
comfortable on the roof of your mouth than the floor why because you've retrained those muscles
you may also notice significant changes in your neck and jawline they've gotten stronger
and sharper too because mewing works the entire lower half of your face with self-discipline and
a consistent routine you can use this technique to restructure the shape of your face hey thanks
