Where is your tongue resting right now? If it is not in the roof of your mouth send me a message to find out how I can help you make proper oral rest posture a healthy habit! 🌟
Where does your tongue rest when you’re not speaking or eating?
It might seem like a small detail, but tongue posture plays a major role in proper facial development, airway health, and long-term wellness.
A high tongue posture (resting gently on the roof of the mouth with light suction) supports ideal jaw growth, proper palate formation, and optimal breathing—especially through the nose.
A low tongue posture, on the other hand, can contribute to a narrow palate, airway issues, and dysfunctional breathing patterns over time.
This is foundational for:
• Facial growth & symmetry
• Proper nasal breathing
• Reducing risk of sleep-disordered breathing
• Oral function and speech
It all starts with rest.
Train the tongue. Support the airway. Guide the growth.
