People with below average height long to grow taller so as to take a better view of the world. Though height doesn’t really matter in the final analysis as it doesn’t take away 0.1 mm from your inherent qualities, doesn’t dictate your personality or your achievements.
In fact, some of the biggest powerhouses of the world were short in height. Mahatma Gandhi, the great Indian freedom fighter was 5’5”. Voltaire, a French philosopher and writer was 5’3”. Yuri Gagarin a famous Soviet astronaut was 5’2”. Shawn Johnson is short even for a gymnast – just 4’9’’. The quirky Lady Gaga is a mere 5’1”.
But what if you wish to grow taller anyway? Is there a way to increase height naturally?
Yes! Yoga can make you grow taller by addressing a few key issues. Essentially, yoga stretches your spine, lengthens your back and leg muscles, and improves your posture. It also detoxifies your body, thus spurring the growth of healthy cells. A regular and consistent yoga schedule reduces stress and relaxes you. This, in turn, releases growth hormones which increases the height naturally.
