0:00 [Music] happy new year welcome to 2021. i thought today we would give you a specific welcome to the new year exercise and the one i'd want to do is the max tongue press the idea is you gain a good suction hold you have your tongue well suctioned on the roof of your mouth so that your tongue is fully engaged flat on the roof of the mouth you evacuate so you suck out the saliva and then push with your tongue as hard as you can on the roof of the mouth your teeth should be in butterfly bite so your normal comfortable bite but very very
0:48 lightly touching you don't want to bite so hard as your teeth really touch once in a while you're going to have to swallow so your tongue comes off your teeth will come together you'll do a sweep to get more saliva out of your mouth but in effect you're using the maximum force you can in your tongue you're gonna hold this for i would say a couple of minutes and then you're going to halve the forces so you halve the amount your tongue is pushing up then in another few minutes you have it again and halve it again and again and again so eventually you're left with this very very very light action with the tongue and the jaw closing muscles
1:33 working in this nice harmony this balance able to keep your teeth in a light butterfly bite so not clenching occasionally coming together but very very lightly then effectively you've created a balance and of course that's what we're always trying to do with mewing is create a balance a warning this exercise isn't for people with significant tmj jaw joint pathology or symptoms and we've discussed this before all right so you start this exercise now and i'll carry on talking reminding you that you're supposed to be maintaining this because endurance is important [Music]
2:21 i'm really impressed that finally our youtube channel has hit 200 000 supporters you know i i'm humbled by this with a lot planned for 2021 and one thing people have been screaming from me is to produce some good quality videos that really encapsulate newing and you know i've had a lot on a lot on and we're really taking the time to make something that's gonna really help you with the fine detail that i've never really gone into and when i watch some people's youtube videos on what to do i'm thinking you know there's so much more i could add and help people with so that's one of our projects that's going to be going on in 2021
3:07 you can probably halve the force of your muscles now [Music] so i've got crohn's disease and i've kept this in remission for 10 years by really focusing on my diet and i guess after 10 years you tend to slip a little bit and the crohn's disease has come back with full force and i was hospitalized we did a video on it i'm getting there it's just such a mind-blowing dedication and focus you know not to eat things you know to go down shops buy you know food and no i'm not going to eat any of that to cook food and no i'm not going to eat any of it and it's it's really takes some mental
3:55 stamina to that for week after week after week and you know i'm slowly starting to introduce some solid foods into my diet let's hope this take the the method i've chosen is going to work and put me into better health you know from comfortable my objective you can probably halve the force of your muscles again now [Music] in 2021 i've got this case we're expecting to have the final charges um the middle of this coming month january and by this time next year i would have had the final um outcome in case you know it starts in
4:42 you know late november next year of this coming year and it's it will determine the future of my career and it will determine i i guess many things it hopefully i can use this to stimulate debate and move forwards you know get somewhere with science because that's what i've been really calling for and um obviously it hasn't happened your muscles might be aching a little that's expected you've been using them but if you can maintain this as your posture and having come down just carry on and on and on just maintain this position this is how you should be and we look forward to 2021
5:31 2020 was possibly not my or many people's best year to 2021 happy new year
