Being tall makes one look attractive. Much depends upon our postures. We need to maintain our body in order to look tall. How we stand, walk, sit make a lot of difference. If we keep our spine erect and walk with our head straight on our shoulder then we retain our height. If we slouch and bend our backs, then we will look short.
Postures make a difference. By maintaining good postures we retain our height. Which are the postures that help us look tall?
Postures that Enhance Height, Postures to Increase Height
- Standing – If one has to stand for a long time, and then it is better to place the pressure on one leg and firmly place the body on it, while applying less pressure on the other foot. Keeping changing the body pressure on each leg. The pressure is less on the feet and legs tend to be relaxed. By not bending your legs too much, one can retain height. While standing straight keep the chest open. Do not keep it stretched widely. At times, when we have to stand for a longer duration, say for 10 minutes, have a tendency to rest the back or hips onto something. It is better to shift the weight off any particular part. Also one must not bend the waist.
- Sitting – In case, you have to sit on the lower region of your buttocks, and then rest the body fully on the buttocks. Keep your back erect. Make sure that the spine is not in a bent position. Even reading a book or using the computer, bend the spine a little bit forward.
- Walking – While walking keep your back straight and head up. This posture maintains your height. Walking in a slouched manner or with the back bent can make you look short.
- Lying down – Keep your legs well stretched and your body too. You must spread out well, which would keep the spine in good shape and make you look tall also.
Walking with your head in the air and sitting with your back straight can retain your height. One must ensure that one’s spine is erect.
