Mewing is a mouth posture invented by Dr. Mike Mew that maintains closed lips, uses constant nose breathing and rests the tongue against the roof of the mouth to develop healthy facial posture. Mewing propels the bottom jaw forward to develop a healthy facial profile that promotes straight teeth alignment, supports the nose and cheeks, widens the upper jaw and provides access to a full airway for better breathing. I began mewing in 2019 and continue to this day.
Review – Wholesale Natural Body Care by Deborah Tosline
In 2015, the Environmental Working Group found that women apply “168 chemicals to their faces and bodies every day”.

I make many of my PCPs including tinctures, serums, oil blends, lotions, creams, masks, and deodorant to name a few.

Nutrition and Nutraceuticals for Facial Bone Health by Deborah Tosline
Bones are the foundation of our face and body and combined with soft tissue provide the power to move us through life. Buried deep beneath an intricate matrix of skin, fascia, blood vessels, muscles and more our hidden bones labor to meet our demands. Out of sight, out of mind, it’s easy to forget about them.
