Chewing is not just about putting your teeth in your mouth, but about feeling the food as you eat it.
The Chewing Wave is a technique where you move your jaw in a smooth, flowing motion, like a wave on the ocean, to break down your food into tiny pieces.
It's like a dance, really. You're not just eating, you're performing a choreographed routine with your mouth and teeth.
Try it out: close your eyes, take a piece of food, and start chewing. Feel the wave of flavors and textures, let it wash over you, and you'll be hooked.
For a more advanced version, try incorporating some mastication into your wave.
