My tongue alignment is definitely directly connected to my pelvis and neck alignment you are light years ahead of the industry standards

I've been looking and learning this concept for over 40 years. My entire left side was shut down from a very young age. You have no idea how much work i've put towards healing. I ve made lots of progress but it's been an incredible amount of pain and struggle. Over 40 years of chronic pain. Your knowledge is supremely important. Thank you.

This may sound like nonsense to people that don’t have these issues, but this makes so much sense to those of us living with these wack compensations. The entire right side of my body has been getting more and more tense over the past year and I had no idea why. I have done a few of your exercises for breathing and the results were so much faster than I could have imagined. I can get out of bed now without feeling like my gut might explode on the right side, because of all the pressure from my right side being crunched together and overactive. Thank you. I hope you get millions more views and subscribers. You’re a Godsend.

Tongue position slight behind the upper front teeth is essential in qi gong practice, especially in zhan zhuang and microcosmic orbit meditations. This knowledge is apparently thousands of years old and what amazes me is that the ancients figured this out purely by lives dedicated to practice and biofeedback. No cadaver dissections, no modern anything, just pure cultivated self awareness.

If in meditation or qigong or Kundalini flow there comes a huge electrical flow it can damage the balance of the meridian/energeticall system, thats why you put the tongue there , like a bridge ❤ There is a famous Kundalini teacher whose famous saying was “…and remember: keep your tongue up!”

This is at the same time wonderful news and overwhelming. Where do I start and how can I achieve less inflammation. I need this yesterday. Before all the nails get hammered into my coffin at 53. I can’t drive without pain. I look at a sport and pain.

Best way to relax the tongue is bringing head down. Like your chin to your neck. Not super hard. Jus enough to change that posture of the head, in turn, stretching the back of your neck. I did it to stretch that area and it fixed EVERY problem I had. Neck pain back pain, voice, tense tongue, better breathing. Everything. Gone. I can't even recognize all but I just feel good. Holding that position all day starts as tiring and uncomfortable but the next day your great. Key is to keep the practice.

Essentially her plane ticket dog food and vet care only cost 270.00$ for all that. That's cheaper than just the cleaning in the USA. We saved a lot bringing our dog and getting her care in Mexico.

I first started learning about PRI months ago when I had extreme body anxiety and realized that I couldn’t relax my left leg. I tried everything but nothing worked. Then, I thought about the permanent metal wire retainer in my bottom teeth that I’ve had for years. I decided to get it removed to see what would happen. I literally felt my left facial muscles reactivate. I felt my jaw shift. And I was able to get onto both of my legs truly. My anxiety was almost completely gone, I have the ability to turn off body pain. I also have the ability to sometimes see things far away almost perfectly without glasses even though I have -2, -2 myopia. I also have the ability to occasional get my brain to turn on my left eye and left ear so that I can see and hear in “3D” if that makes sense. However, I am now suddenly struggling greatly with concentration, morning nausea, and turning off my focus of my body. My jaw and face shifted when I got the metal wire out of my teeth. Now my teeth are slanted, so when I try to close my “left tongue” and left jaw muscle, my left bottom teeth grind up and back with extreme force and my tongue can’t get all the way rested without damaging force coming down on my left canine/ front bottom teeth. It is very frustrating trying to explain this to people, as well as trying to solve this issue ( I’m trying to find an orthodontist who understands what I’m talking about ). To them my teeth look straight and when I move my jaw they think I’m tensing it when actually I’m relaxing it and the teeth themselves are slanted and not fitting right. I did some research to learn that the tongue retraction neurons are connected directly to our jaw closing neurons so that we don’t accidentally bite our tongue while chewing. This may be part of the problem besides fascial connection. Unfortunately this also means I can’t rest my tongue without closing my left jaw which can’t close because teeth are in the way. I always try to make sure that any other fascial interference is not messing up my calculation of where the jaw is trying to close when I feel the emotion of “true calm” . I close my eyes and cover them, etc. But I always see the same pattern. I honestly don’t know if PRI exercises can fix people with a dental problem ( that I didn’t even know I had ) like myself. But PRI should absolutely be used During any dental procedures! So they don’t accidentally mess up the position of the teeth. Now, I must find a way somehow to fix my teeth after years of orthodontic malplacement. Please let me know if you have any ideas or people or methodologies that can help me to restore my teeth to a better position. Perhaps orthodontists need to over- or - under- correct so that when the appliance is removed the jaw moves into the proper alignment ? I honestly have no idea why my orthodontic treatment turned out the way it did, whether it was my orthodontists fault, or whether braces / retainers do this to everyone ?? Which would explain a lot if so...

BTW usually when you are relaxed and exhale longer than inhale those muscles will activate therefore I think is more of a stress issue than other, good information though, just too much for people looking for answers and not really getting one which is less stress long exhales good nutrition and appropiate exercise regimen

Hi Neil, How exactly does putting the tongue on the roof of the mouth or pallet switch-off the hip-flexors and how does placing the tongue up on the roof affect the head and neck; does it enable one to pull the neck up to stretch the paravertebals which causes the psoas to relax? Also I read elsewhere that the tongue is linked to the myofascia (which you mentioned briefly) or tendinous structures down in the prostate area. I remember reading a tip on what to do if you have trouble defecating which was to press the left foot down into the floor to help with this process of elimination. But I'm wondering if you can answer what pelvis-ribcage relationship has to be in place in order to be able to effectively press the left foot down firmly with sustained pressure to facilitate this; does this imply you need to be in the RightAIC position with the pelvis rotated to the left in order to achieve this?

It's just neurologic tension. PRI is all about "tension management". It's less about biomechanics than people realize. If a tongue can't rest in a normal position, it will cause tension and that tension can be felt elsewhere in the body because of fascia and muscular connections.

Neal you should address the weak right back muscles like the infraspinatus and delts that are weaken by being stuck in the right stance, I have found out that by strengthening the right infraspinatus, it stabilizes my right shoulder and relieves my right neck. I think there is an X pattern on the upper half of our body, either we use the left back muscles and the right pecs, or we use the left pecs and the right back muscles, but if you are stuck in a right stance, you only use the left back muscles and the right pecs.

I've never heard of overtone singing but I'm going to look it up! Yes, the diaphragm and pelvic floor need to get stacked, but they both rely on the position of the pelvis and ribcage for proper stacking. Thanks for the comment.

Are you saying that if there is a crowding problem in the mouth that does not allow the tongue to relax, then you would never be able to get into neutral stance unless the crowding problem in the mouth is fixed first?

Yes, that can happen. Either the mouth is too small/narrow or the jaw is too far back/retruded.

What about a tongue tie frenectomy

wow, this explains why my scalene muscles get heavy overloaded. My tongue simply hasnt enough space. But is the only solution to let the tongue hang out of the mouth?

It's complicated. Some people need more space created in their mouth. I actually have a narrow palate and a slight posterior tongue tie, so my tongue doesn't have a ton of space to rest. It can cause lots of neck tension. You need to find a dentist who concentrates on Airway Health.

@@NealHallinan I recognized when I push my tongue into the top of my inner mouth my scalene muscles get insane relaxed. Seems like this is the right position for the tongue.

when you talk about right or left side are you saying from our point of view or yours?

I don’t get it, I have an open bite, front teeth go right, leave a gap between the front left tooth and the tooth next to it, the right front sticks out more but overlaps the tooth next to it, with my open bite, I don’t know why my tongue cant relax in the back, but it does not provide a good ig “vacuum” to breathe unless I really focus on it, and if I lose it, everything crumbles quickly, it’s weird. This is also with a plethora of other right torsion type of things, so anyone reading this is probably going through something a lot less, ive been through hell since having my wisdom teeth pulled in January ‘22. My questions are just trying to access the cause of why I can’t get neutral even after surgery for septum the other week and wisdom teeth. Edit: Neil you probably have seen my comments, my emails, you probably want me to seek pri help, I literally have spent so much money on things to try helping myself that I am at a point where I just meed directions, im going to the dentist this week, hopefully ill have an answer with my now thought process of it being my tongue and open bite again

Open bites can be quite problematic.

What's the proper resting position?

Roof of the mouth behind the top teeth. There is tons of literature on it that you can find on the internet and youtube.

mewing its more on expanding the upper palette, like trying to pronounce letters NG , while having mild molar contact, while thinking on letter R triggers a homeostais response, vagus nerve reponse

@@NealHallinan i really appreciate ur videos Neal. I think I wouldve greatly benefitted if i knew about the tounge relationship on the muscles or mewing in general. thankfully after very stressful moments i came across mewing and started it about a month and 1 day ago. I had braces for 2 years as a teenager and that greatly changed me. do u think theres anything i can do to help me on my journey to get neutral while im mewing? like do tour technoques etc? anyways thanks for ur content

Real interesting that relaxing the hips is a big part of tai chi and resting the tongue on the roof of the mouth Is something Chinese tai chi teachers emphasise. Must be something to do with this.

1 Corinthians 12:24-26 “But God has put the body together, giving greater honor to the parts that lacked it, so that there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other. If one part suffers, every part suffers with it” Science is always catching up to what the Bible already has told us 🙏🏼

I'm experiencing such severe (TM) and (C) restrictions that I've been getting served lawsuits for copy-write infringement.

Tongue applications isn't anything new. There's the Bagha where you put your tongue up to the roof of your mouth towards your front teeth to do an 'intention.' Burt Goldman (the American Monk) talked about this in one of his videos. I heard people in martial arts could benefit from using the Bagha tongue technique. Just thought I'd add more here.

On the roof of the mouth. And not just the tip, all the way to the back of the tongue. Look up "mewing" or Orthotropics.
