In 2018, I started the Best Face Forward Youtube channel to share what I've learned from Dentists, Myofunctional Therapists, and other health professionals on my journey to improving the way I looked, and my health through tongue posture.

BUT, the thing I'm most happy about is that along the way I've made SERIOUS progress myself...

Not only has my posture and breathing improved, but I look better than ever. My jaw, face, eyes, cheeks and lips all look more attractive, as well as my smile. I have literally watched my face change in front of my eyes.

But I'm not the only one.

One of the best feelings I have is from helping others achieve similar progress, hearing stories of people who have been able to use my videos to see results themselves.

I'm a product of the things I've learned, and the work i've done - but it wasn't always like this.

Let me tell you the story of how I went from hating how I look and being a mouth breather, to where I am today...

I had a pretty normal upbringing. Actually, I had a really good childhood - except for one thing. I was a mouth breather growing up. 

At first, nobody noticed - including me. My parents didn't notice, and honestly, I didn't really care about how I looked at the time. All that mattered was playing video games and getting good grades (which I was doing with my mouth hanging wide open).

I remember my teachers telling me"close your mouth or else flies will get in"... I didn't know any better at the time.

It wasn't until I was in high school - around 14-15 that I started to notice that something was changing...

I came across a Youtube Channel called "Orthotropics" - where I first heard about mewing. Ah-ha! This is what my problem was! Because of mouth breathing I had developed poor tongue posture, which is why my face looked the way it did.

But this almost made the problem worse, not better.

Because now that I had this knowledge, I went on a mission to figure out how to fix it. I was determined!

All this worrying was starting to get to my head. I just wanted to get on with my life, but all I could think about was how I could fix this problem.

When you start to obsess over this stuff, it really affects you. Your entire world becomes consumed by this painful feeling of... why did this have to happen to me? How can I fix this?

I could have just given up and accepted it (which probably would have been good for me mentally), but that wasn't an option. I needed to find a solution. And luckily I did.

When we say "resting tongue posture", we mean where your tongue sits in your mouth when you're NOT TRYING TO DO ANYTHING.

I'm not talking about when your mewing, or thinking consciously about it.

I'm talking about when you're sleeping. When you're working. When you're walking around. When you're at the gym.

The question is: where is your tongue the majority of the time?

That is what will have the biggest impact on your health, appearance, and progress over time.

When your tongue is up and forward on your palate it's further away from your airway (meaning you can breath more easily), and it's also exerting more force on your maxilla (meaning you will be more attractive over time).

The question is: how do you improve your resting tongue posture over time without thinking about it 24-7?

There are 2 things that you can do every day to improve your resting tongue posture - and they are closely related.

By doing these 2 things daily, you will create a beautiful cycle where you are improving every day - with minimal effort.

Remember how I said people's tongue posture is getting worse because of the posture epidemic?

Well, in the opposite way - by IMPROVING your posture every day, guess what happens?

Your tongue posture gets better without you consciously TRYING to make it better.

This is because when your head is in alignment over your body, you're tongue can more easily push up and forward against the roof of your mouth.

If you just improved your posture alone - you would see, and more importantly feel the improved position of your tongue.

BY improving the posture of your head, neck, and entire body, day-by-day, you'll be making it even easier to improve your tongue posture.

Your tongue is a muscle, and by strengthening that muscle you'll find it naturally rests on the roof of your mouth more easily.

That means without even trying to it will naturally rest in a better habitual position on your upper palate. 

There are numerous ways you can strengthen the tongue that are more effective than mewing alone (which I'll get into further down the page).

This means you don't need to THINK about your tongue posture all day... actually, you can just do a few exercises and forget about it completely (my preferred method).

I've learned this from working with myofunctional therapists (who specialize in ensuring the tongue functions correctly), and since implementing the exercises, my tongue posture is better than ever.

If you improve these two things day-by-day, you'll eventually have a snowball effect, where each day you are getting better and better.

This is how you can get better results than you ever thought possible!

In order for you to get results, you need to take daily action. Doing daily exercises will ensure that your tongue posture is improving.

Most importantly, it will ensure your tongue & body posture is not getting WORSE (which is a lot of people today).

Here is how you can use the BFF website for your betterment:

If you are already familiar with some of the topics on this website, you can skip to the exercises and begin doing those now.

Remember, patience and discipline are what yield results. If you are consistent and patient... you will improve!

Thank you for supporting Best Face Forward, and we hope to help you improve.
