Growing Taller Could Actually Be Possible For Some Persons

By Fiona Wyresdle

Genetically it is not possible for anyone to grow taller than their bodies have been programmed to grow. However many people want to know how to grow taller as short people often suffer from insecurities regarding their height. There are Russian hospitals you can go to, to have your legs broken and stretched, but do we really need to go to those kinds of lengths? (pun intended)

Genetically, people can be very short, I know because I am a genetically short person. My father is only 5'5", my mother 5'4, and I am 4'11', same as my grandmother. My poor daughter is only 4'7", so she really takes flack, but fortunately is 6 foot tall personality wise. Nutrition can also play a role in your height as can your personality, posture and nutrition.

Forget about the genetic factor, nothing can be done scientifically at this stage, it cannot be altered or controlled, but who knows what may happen in the future. You obviously have to work on the factors which you can control, such as your physique, nutrition, posture, exercise and mental outlook.

The law of attraction says you can have what you want, so if you want to add a few inches to your height, a positive attitude is a must. Don't listen to anyone who tries to discourage you, you can only do this if you really want it. Physically it is actually possible to add at least two inches to your height, and this is without wearing heels or built up shoes. Some people who have tried certain techniques have even managed to add as much as 4 inches to their stature, although they are adults and already fully grown.

Stretching and exercise is very important to add height to your stature. There are various of these exercise regimes available and they can be incorporated easily in any daily routine. They can be done while sitting down or standing, while in front of the TV or in the shower, the choice is yours entirely.

What you do need is a strong commitment that you will achieve what you want to achieve. Any kind of endeavor without commitment and a positive attitude is a waste of time. It does not matter what you do, the results you get are directly proportionate to the amount of effort you are prepared to make.

If you want to grow taller you have to do your bit, you will only see results if you maintain consistency. It is no use starting a program and giving up after a few weeks. That wouldn't work in the gym when you build muscle, it won't work if you are trying to build on your height.
