Day 4

● Maintain the exercises from day 1

● Maintain jaw stabilization and tongue mobilization, discontinue tongue to spot exercise

● Inverted tongue and posterior tongue work

Why- When we turn the tongue upside down it has to work harder to produce the same sound/movement. Combined with posterior tongue engagement we are able to achieve more jaw-tongue differentiation as well as improving the ability of the back of the tongue to lift as will be required in upcoming suction and seal. Inverting the tongue strengthens the muscles for better engagement when upright.

Tools- Knowledge of Do-Re-MI-Fa-So-La-Ti-Do tone and flow, mirror and bear mouth prop.

Process- Stand upright, preferably braced against a wall, and slowly bend at the waist. With relaxed arms, your head and hands should be hanging upside down with knees slightly bent. Begin to sing Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So-La-Ti-Do and repeat 3 times. Roll upright slowly sing the song again with bear mouth prop in place. As the tongue sings Do-MI-La-Ti-Do it should touch spot. Observe tongue in a mirror as you repeat the song 3 times.

Perform- 2 to 3 times daily
