Dr. Mike Mew has explained how body posture is connected to tongue posture.
for example if you always keep your head down, you will counter the correct development of your lower third, and malucclusion is a symptom of this.
if you keep your back straight, the act of mewing becomes automatic, you will even swallow properly without noticing.
you have to hold the correct posture especially when you are sitting, in fact we pass a lot of time studying or working, so keeping our back curved in theese situations will ruin our orthotropic improvement. when you are sitting you have to flex your quadratus lumborum continuously in order to keep the posture.
posture is important even when you sleep: for example if you sleep laying with your face up, then you need to use a very thin pillow. (it's better not to use it at all)
whereas if you sleep on your side, you need a big pillow to keep your neck straight.
