Practice these 6 asanas to increase height
Does yoga, despite its many benefits, such as increasing strength, developing body awareness, and improving posture, help you grow taller?
Yes! Yoga can help you grow taller. Yoga, in essence, stretches the spine, lengthens the back and leg muscles, and improves posture. It also detoxifies your body, encouraging healthy cell growth. Yoga on a regular and consistent basis reduces stress. As a result, growth hormones are released, naturally increasing height.
Let us take a look at this list of the best yoga poses for height gain.
1. Surya Namaskar
Surya Namaskar should be done at sunrise and sunset for the best results. This yoga means saluting the God of Energy, the Sun. It has a total of 12 poses, performed cyclically. It is a popular yoga to increase height as it stimulates vital hormones in the body. Surya Namaskar is a yoga posture that helps to loosen up joints and muscles in a short amount of time.
