Sucking from a pouch barely moves the jaw muscles. Chewing does: bite, chew, tongue up, swallow. Again and again, this helps the jaw grow, and a bigger jaw means more room for teeth and for breathing.

After so many years in America, I still love discovering traditions that everyone else seems to have grown up knowing. Thanksgiving cranberries will never look the same to me again.

Did you know cranberries were harvested this way?

What does it mean to live fully when your body doesn’t always cooperate? 💗

In my conversation with the amazing and inspirational Tami Luchow Tami Luchow , we explored visible and invisible disabilities, finding strength on difficult days, and building a world where every voice is heard. We also discussed why sleep apnea can go undiagnosed for years in women and the hidden symptoms we shouldn’t ignore.
Tami Luchow’s interactive mixed-media exhibit, THE NEXT LEG OF THE DIS TOUR: VISION QUEST, explores disability, identity, and belonging, inviting visitors to share their stories and celebrate our shared humanity 🫶

Watch the interview on Wednesday, October 21st, 12:30 PM EST 📺

Can Mewing really change your face, improve breathing, and influence facial development—or has social media oversimplified the science?
Dr. Maria Sokolina interviews Inga Klovaite, a Myofunctional and Mewing therapist who spent more than 11 years working alongside Prof. John Mew and Dr. Michael Mew in Orthotropics.
We explore what Mewing actually means beyond the viral social media trend and why tongue posture, lip seal, nasal breathing, swallowing, and oral function may matter for facial growth, dental development, posture, and airway health.
We discuss:
• What Mewing really is—and what it isn't
• Correct tongue posture and lip seal
• Nasal breathing versus mouth breathing
• Mewing in children versus adults
• Facial growth and jaw development
• Myofunctional therapy and Orthotropics
• Common Mewing mistakes
• Mouth breathing and crowded teeth
• The relationship between oral posture, airway health, and sleep
• When early intervention may matter
The conversation also connects with themes explored in Dr. Maria Sokolina's medical novel Breathless: What if we recognized dysfunctional breathing and oral habits years before a patient developed significant sleep and airway problems?
For parents, patients, dentists, orthodontists, myofunctional therapists, and anyone curious about the science and controversy behind Mewing, this conversation separates the viral trend from the clinical principles behind it.

Your tongue should rest on the roof of your mouth. Here is how to make it a habit. 👅

I asked mewing coach Inga Klovaite

Mewing can give you a sharper jawline. Done wrong, it can also tilt your teeth. 👀

I asked Inga Klovaite . Inga spent over 10 years working with Prof. John Mew and Dr. Mike Mew
, the people behind mewing.

What social media gets wrong:
• Pressing your tongue hard does not work faster.
• Your tongue should never push on your teeth.
• Your tongue is only one part. Posture and nose breathing matter too.

Full interview: Wednesday, October 14, 12:30 PM EST, on my YouTube. Link in bio.

Send this to someone who is mewing right now. 💙

This does not happen to everyone. But if you had teeth removed and you are always tired, ask about a sleep test.
Did you have teeth pulled for braces?
