Want to Grow Taller? Do These 3 Yoga Exercises

Yoga has become quite popular of late, both for the physical as well as spiritual effects it can have on your mind and body.
Yoga exercises stress the importance of stretching and proper breathing techniques.
When combined, these elements make for a very calming experience that often leads one into deeper thoughts.
You'll want to perform these techniques in an environment conducive to this type of experience.
Finding a quiet spot in nature is good, or indoors with peaceful music playing.
Here we'll list 3 of the yoga techniques you can use to help increase your height, and possibly your peace of mind as well.
1.
The Cobra -
This first technique requires you to lay flat on your stomach, legs together and arms tucked in at your sides.
Keeping your lower body firmly on the ground, and keeping your buttocks clenched to protect your spine, slowly raise your head and upper body up into the air as high as you feel comfortable with.
The above workout can be done as is, or for added effect, once you've reached the apex of your rise, lift yourself even further up using your arms and hold that position.
Both of these workouts are tremendous for the spine and back, increasing strength and stretching them out for greater height and flexibility.
2.
Dog and Cat -
No props needed to perform this technique, you can leave the animals alone.
What the name of this exercise refers to is the natural body structures of the dog and cat, and how you'll mimic them each in turn to work on your spine and legs.
You'll start on your hands and knees, stretching your body out, spine inverted, and tilting your head up.
From here you want to shift your spine position completely in the opposite direction, pulling it up, and pulling your stomach in.
Alternate between these 2 positions, holding each for several seconds.
This workout does wonders for the flexibility and elasticity of your spine, putting it through a full range of motion multiple times in short order.
3.
Downward Facing Dog -
The dog returns for this second exercise, which works on the spine and hamstrings, building strength and flexibility.
Starting stretched out on your hands and knees, lift your knees off the ground and as straight as you can keep them.
  Your upper body should be straight as well, with your buttocks and lower back pointed up, in an upside down V position.
Hold this position for several seconds, and then release your legs so you're back on your knees.
Keep repeating this process multiple times.
As you can see, the benefits of yoga are many.
Utilizing these, or one or more of the other myriad yoga techniques will help you increase your height, while letting stress melt away from your mind.
