Before you could look good, you would have to look sane.

I’ll never look good

By your metric hardly anyone would.

Yeah, unfortunately Mew mentioned that sometimes this kind of adjustment can lead to neck problems.

I managed to mess up my face by mewing. I pressed the tip fo my tongue on the roof of my palate driving it up while the front and sides came down. So now i hold my head up slightlt and my neck is out of balance.
Picture attached

Shows you how a little knowledge is dangerous

I would like to fix it but fixing something is harder than breaking it

@pimpnamedraypeat oh snickerdoodles! I've been mewing for like six months! what do you think the ideal facial/tongue/mouth posture is?

 

[Arrade]

Just breathe through your nose, don't do jaw exercises, and maybe get a little bit k especially mk4

Your facial midline inckuding nose and mouth is too far forwars while your cheeks and eyes are back

Flat pushing out to the sides to widen.

The action of keeping your tongue on the roof is already pushing forward and up

Red areas project in good looking people

@pimpnamedraypeat teeth still together? any reading material on this approach?

You got a point there

It actually works best if you remove all your teeth.
When you chew without teeth the force is translated to your jaw directly so you'll build higher bone density and without teeth tacking up space you'll have a jaw angle that approaches 90%

@pimpnamedraypeat you didn’t tell me how to fix my problem ;(

I am very sorry to hear that. So your jaw actually angled downward? Do you breathe through your nose, even at night? Is your mouth/jaw closed? Were you only pushing on the palate with the tip of your tongue as opposed to the whole tongue? How long were you mewing when you noticed this change? Maybe you could try asking Mew about how to correct this.

You're pushing up and creating a hill in your palate. You want a plateau.

Tilt your head down slightly and you will feel your tongue rise up to push against your palate. Most likely the front of your palate.

Your tongue is attached to your neck. It floats in your mouth freely like a gyroscope. That means the position of your neck influenses your the position of your tongue.

If you can maintain a good posture from head to toe that will be key in giving you good oral posture. No easy fix unfortunately.

Do you have trouble keeping tongue on roof of mouth?

I was mewing a few years. Yes it grew down could also be due to aging. I breathe through my nose all day I assume at night as well. I use mostly the forward section of my tongue to mew.

Interesting. Right now I have a deviated septum so that probably affects me, with mouth breathing or holding my jaw loose/tongue down.
I wasn’t going to do anything til my nose surgery

@pimpnamedraypeat
Just FYI - My impression (from watching several youtube videos from the Mews) is that mouth breathing is one thing that pulls down the jaw. Some people have their mouths fall open at night and they mouth breathe. I think I would do this too, except I tape my mouth (just enough to keep it closed so I hopefully avoid mouth breathing - I can still breathe at the corners (if necessary) which I leave untaped). Not that I have good oral posture yet, but trying to get there.

I’m gonna have to buy one of those dumb headstraps like in this article: https://www.westonaprice.org/health-topics/dentistry/is-it-mental-or-is-it-dental/

Though I don’t tell like my face is too long
