Think your chronic tension, poor sleep, or jaw pain has nothing to do with how your tongue rests in your mouth? Think again.

In this raw and mind-blowingly informative episode, Dr. Andrea Moore sits down with Sara Mercier, a registered dental hygienist and orofacial myofunctional therapist, to unravel the wildly underappreciated role of your tongue, jaw, and breathing in everything from chronic pain to nervous system regulation.

Together, they explore:

• What orofacial myofunctional therapy actually is—and why you’ve likely never heard of it

• How improper tongue posture can mess with your breathing, sleep, nervous system, AND facial development

• Why nasal breathing isn’t just “ideal”—it’s foundational to healing and performance

• The shocking links between tongue ties, ADHD, anxiety, and musculoskeletal issues

• Why some people feel instant relief (like open hips and better sleep) after a tongue tie release

• The ethics of therapy, informed choice, and knowing when to stop spinning your wheels

• Yes, even… why Sarah analyzes celebrity mouths on Instagram (and why people get so dang upset about it)

Andrea also shares her own vulnerable story about her son’s tongue tie release, the tough decisions involved, and how even as a seasoned PT, she’s constantly learning how interconnected the body truly is.

This is the episode that will make you stare at your own tongue in the mirror—and question everything you thought you knew about healing.
