0788 – Tongue Stretches

2023.02.27 – 0788 – Tongue Stretches Tongue Stretches·        Open and relax your mouth with your lips apart, then stick out your tongue as far as it will stretch. Hold it there for 30 seconds while breathing. Check you are not tightening your neck muscles (use a mirror or put a hand on your neck to feel for tension) ·        Stick your tongue out and slowly draw a square with the tip of your tongue. Try different shapes and try ‘writing’ your name. Do this 5 times, with increased speed each time·        Stretch the tip of your tongue to the tip of your nose and then relax it. Do this five times. Then stretch it down to touch your chin five times.·        Put your tongue back in and move it slowly as far as it will stretch in all directions in your mouth to explore all ‘four corners’ and all points in between: across the front of your top teeth to the depths of the bottom of the mouth.·        With your mouth closed, teeth and lips together, and a relaxed jaw, and the tongue inside the mouth (obviously!), rotate it to the right 8 times. Then to the left. Then repeat 7 times, 6 times, and so on until you’re down to one rotation right and one left.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
