A person with good height always possesses a good personality. Having good height makes the person more attractive, which in turn makes him/her confident. I am 5’6’’ and I still wish I was 2’’ taller! My vanities aside, if you really want to increase your height and look taller, try Ramdev Yoga.
How Does Yoga Help In Increasing Height?
Including stretching exercises, yoga asanas focus on increasing the flexibility of the body. These help in attaining a good, taller posture. Resulting in a taller frame, yoga asanas realign and straighten the spinal cord, which may have bent a little because of bad posture. Performing yoga releases mental and emotional stress and relaxes the body. This also leads to a release of the growth hormone, which helps in increasing height. Stretching is an integral part of yoga asanas and helps elongate the muscles. As a result, the yoga asanas (along with the gravitational forces) may pull the body and help increase the height.
