Sleep is one of the best ways for women and men to grow taller.
It may sound strange, but all of the techniques available won't work well without proper sleep.
If you are looking for ways to grow taller, read these tips about improving your sleep.
The ability to get a proper night's rest is essential to human growth and development.
Gravity weights down the body, causing your spinal column to shorten and compress.
When you are lying down, gravity's force decreases the pressure on the spine and causes expansion.
Also during this rest time is when growth hormones are released to the rest of the body.
When you are sleeping try to sleep on your back.
This position allows your spine to stretch better and reduce the pressure from gravity the most.
Also you should keep your legs stretched out instead of curled up.
This may take some getting used to if you don't normally sleep this way.
You should choose a firm mattress to sleep on so you have maximum support for your weight.
A mattress that is too soft can curve your spine and you won't benefit from your body's ability to grow.
Sleep only with a small pillow, or better yet, don't even use a pillow.
If you sleep with your head on pillows that are too large, you run the risk of bending your neck.
This position places your spine in an unhealthy situation.
The pillows shaped like cylinders are great when you are sleeping on your back, because you gain the best back alignment.
