More on Palette-Uvula Nursing & Pituitary Exercise

From early feedback I'm getting, perhaps my description of the exercise needs tweaking. Here's more:

Place the tongue behind lower teeth comfortably, raise the middle of the tongue to create a vacuum between the tongue and the back palette and suck rhythmically, allowing the vacuum area to widen backwards towards the soft area and the uvula, that little fleshy thing hanging from the back of your throat. Sometimes I first become very still until I can feel my heartbeat in my chest, and then I suck in time with my heartbeat.
I think of the tongue as the uppermost petal of the petals of the heart flower.

I recently read that the pineal gland in the fetus forms not from brain tissue but from the soft palette tissue of the growing mouth. This is very interesting, because it suggests a connection between the two areas. Thus 'nursing' on the soft palette may give the pineal a long-distance massage -- or at least a 'message'.
A SMILE helps this one along too.

Don't try these while driving or operating dangerous equipment. These can be really powerful!

If you still need to be convinced that exercises of this sort work, here's a quickie pituitary massage: Hold the nostrils closed and do a series of 'tugs' (inhales) from the nasal cavity. This creates a vacuum in that area and moves the sphenoid bone behind the sphenoid sinus enough to vibrate the pituitary. This also gives the
stomach muscles a good work-out! Don't do anything painful!

Approach both exercises with caution, especially if you have any medical condition. Don't overdo!
