Soft Mewing VS Hard Mewing

You're working out the tension has to go somewhere the answer mew.

Hi everyone. Today, I'm going to talk about three kinds of mewing suction levels. But if you don't know what mewing is or what correct tongue posture is, be sure to check my other video to understand the basic part. Basically, there's a word hard mew and soft mew and I got question what is what? So I wanted to talk about this and then this is a little bit, there's no clear answer yet. I think according to Dr. Mew in my understanding, so the three kinds is this is my understanding. As I'm, I'm learning from other masters.

Number one, soft mew this is a most basic standard one. When your face is resting, tongue should be touching on the palate. This suction between the palate and the tongue, the suction level I think it's a soft mew and according to Dr. Mew. I think in my understanding, and that should be done all the time. 23 hours, more than 23 hours per day. The reason I say 23 hours is that when you get it, when, when you do a doing the correct tongue posture and the soft mew unconsciously when you're awake, you've be doing this correct mewing, soft newing even when you're sleeping. That's why I said 23 more than 23 hours per day.

Number two, a little bit harder mewing when you swallow something. So let's swallow your accumulate saliva and let's swallow the saliva. When you swallow saliva this is upper teeth, this is palate, this is a tongue. Should be, should be like the tongue is a little bit expanding and a little bit pressing, pressing your skull do you feel it? When you swallow tongue is touching the palate and then lifting this maxilla, the yellow one. This is like center of the face. And you should feel a little bit lifting this skull, entire skull a little bit, a little bit lifting when you swallow. That's what I mean by a little bit harder mewing.

Number three, hard mewing this should be done very, very limited occasions. For example, when you are very stressed, like when you're lifting up, like lifting up a big weight or doing some hard workout or something, and then when you're doing some hard workout a lot of tension happens to the face and the neck area. But, um, very often people get tension in the jaw area, which is not good because then you're gonna develop more masseter muscle to create more TMJ pain, which I don't like it. So remember this red one is overworking, which you should relax. Then the blue is sleeping muscle to be woken up, to lift up your face but anyway, when you're doing the hardwork and then this masseter muscle might get a lot of tension. So when, when that happens, instead of having tension in the masseter, this jaw area, I suggest you do mew.

Move the tension from here to the tongue. And the of course, lifting up the skull. That's what I mean by hard mewing. So in summary, when your face is resting, you should be mewing soft mew, light mew but no, no, no air between the palate and tongue so light suction all the time, 23 hours per day. But when you swallow saliva, when you drink something, when you eat something and when you swallow something, not just saliva, anything, the tongue is a little bit, little bit harder. Little bit tiny, tiny, tiny bit though lifting up you should feel a little bit lift up. And number three is the hard one, which should be done in limited occasions, like working, working out. Because I, I see sometimes lots of, lots of tension, unnecessary tension on the shoulder and the neck when you're doing the workout. And sometimes you get lots of, uh, um, not vein, but a vertical line on the neck, which makes you look older.

That's not good because if you have unnecessary pain, not pain, press, press, pressure or tension, tension in the shoulder and neck and masseter muscle here that's, that's not good, that's bad for face. So you wanna, even when you're relaxed, when you, when you're doing the, working out exercise, you wanna relax here, but it's hard to do because you are working out. The tension has to go somewhere the answer mew. The tension can go here because this tension, tension is safer than neck or shoulder in my opinion. But obviously, I'm learning so much new things almost everyday. So stay tuned in, uh, in my, in this YouTube so that I can update you guys.
