I have recently revised Grow Taller reports.  If you have purchase Grow Taller program and you are on the mailing list you should have received the updated reports.  If you have purchased the Grow Taller program and you are not on the mailing list for Bonus Reports, and would like to receive them, you can email me, and I’ll send you the updated reports.

If you haven’t purchased Grow Taller program, and desire more information about how you can use the power of your mind to increase the height of your body on your own, I’ll soon have a free ebook for you, too.  When it becomes available, I’ll post the message on this blog.

Sang writes, “I am doing a grow taller meditation.  Do I need to visualize myself as growing taller or as already being tall?  Which one is more effective?”

You can visualize yourself in any way that you find more natural for you.  Ultimately whether you visualize yourself as growing taller or as already being tall, you will end up imagining yourself as already being tall.  The most effective method is the one that helps you better to experience the feeling of being as tall as you desire to be, and if you find it easier or more convincing to begin from the height you’re at and imagine and feel yourself growing until you reach your desired height, do it that way.  On the other hand, if you get more of that feeling of being the height you desire going straight to your final outcome and imagining already being that height, do it that way.

If you are engaging in different kinds of visualizations, imagining yourself growing in different ways, or using different kinds of symbolic representations of height increase and body elongation, then in different scenarios you may prefer to use a different approach.  Some people like to work with metaphors where they’d imagine their legs or body being elastic like something that in their experience stretches easily, or that their legs and body are easily extendable like something else that in their life experience stretches easily, or that their legs and body grow as easily and naturally as something that grows easily in nature.  The ideal metaphor would depend on one’s personal interest, background and experience.  It doesn’t matter what it is, as long as it makes sense to the person using it and it helps the person to get more of that growing taller feeling.

You don’t have to stick to one imagery.  You may keep on experimenting with different kinds of imagery and each time you engage in your grow taller meditations use the one that feels just right for you at that moment.  it’s like choose what do you want to eat today, except that here you are feeding your subconscious mind with the idea of height increase which you desire to impress upon it.  What you imagine is not as important as experiencing the feeling of the reality of your body growing taller.  As for the imagery, you are impressing an idea upon your subconscious mind, and that idea may be a literal image of what you want or it may be a symbolic representation of what you want – either way if you know what the image you hold in your mind stands for for you, then so does your subconscious mind.

It doesn’t matter whether the image or symbol you pick is from the real world – like imagining a plant growing easily, or it is from your science fiction or some movie you’ve seen with special effects – anything will do.  You can think of yourself as a superman or a magician, or simply think of your body as elastic and malleable and able to change easily.

Tonny Robbins

Michael writes, “I have been a fan of yours for several years. I have bought several of your products and I love your newsletter. I have been coveting your “Grow Taller” series for a while now, and I just realized recently that you actually have a blog dedicated to that subject.”

I was wondering if it would be possible to get your feedback on a couple of dreams I had recently concerning height and growing taller? The reason I am asking is because I have a feeling these dreams may hold the answer as to whether or not height increase is even a possibility for me at all.

In the first dream, I am looking at Anthony Robbins – Famous motivational speaker. In his real life, he had a massive growth spurt as a teenager due to a pituitary disorder. He supposedly grew 1 foot in less than a year and ended up with a stature of 6 ft 7 – 6 ft 8. I am looking at him as he is lying an a surgical table. I am looking at him from below and I am feeling great anxiety. As I look at him I think to myself with great desperation, “Wow, I am going to have to live my whole life stuck in this – (MY) – tiny body”. End of dream.

The second dream came a few weeks later. I am standing in my apartment and I am talking to anther being – only this other being is ME. It is me, only a taller version of me. Also, the taller version of me does not look too healthy, as his skin is quite pale and washed out. I express my depression and shame about my short height. He tells me not to worry – I am going to grow taller. End of dream.”

The content of our dreams is influences by the information we have gathered in different ways – what we may have seen on TV, in the news, in real life, what we may have read, what we may have learned or contemplated about.  It is influenced by our wishes and concerns, and even by information we may be receiving from others, as mind is not confined to our brains, or if you prefer brains are more like a receiving and processing stations of information that may come from anywhere.

While we sleep and dream, our subconscious is for the most part processing all kinds of information and it is presenting it to our conscious awareness often in a symbolic language and in a way that may not have any particular meaning to someone else, but if we sit and ponder our dreams, and pay attention to patterns and contents and our dreams and how they relate to what was going on through our minds, we may often make sense of why we dreamt what.  If it is not clear to us, we may ask our subconscious mind to helps us to understanding what the dream means, we may talk to characters and symbols that appear in our dreams by asking them what do they stand for, what is the message they are trying to communicate to us, what is it that we should be aware of, and we may even program our dreams to give us more information.

If you are working with Grow Taller program and your height increase is frequently on your mind, it is normal that the topic of height increase would appear in your dreams, as your subconscious is processing the information you’ve been contemplating.  It is also natural that any of the information that is in some way meaningful to you related to height increase, any desires and concerns you have associated with height increase, they’d also in some way appear in your dreams.  Through dreams, beside getting message, we also tend to experience a kind of an emotional release.  Dreams allow an outlet for the material that is buried in our subconscious to emerge and play out.  If you have mixed feelings about height increase, a mixture of desires and concerns, then these may play out in a form of inner conflict, making you feel somewhat unsettled when you wake up and ponder the dream.

As you’ve been working with height increase, your subconscious has been bringing the stuff within your subconscious to the surface for you to be aware of.  You had interesting information about Anthony Robbins and his height is meaningful to you, and in one dream you’ve been comparing it to your own height, and those concerns that you have about your height got in some way purged.  As you kept on working with height increase, your subconscious has brought to your awareness a variation of your future self, which encourages you to stick with your goal and not to worry.  The messages from our deeper self may come in any form that is acceptable for us – for some people it may come in the form of spiritual guides or varieties of spiritual beings or any symbol that the person may have accepted in his belief system to stand for that part of us which guides and comforts us.  In your dream, it comes through an image of your future self, and perhaps it looks pale, washed out and sickly because you have not yet established a firm relationship with this inner part of you that knows all and can do anything if you just hold onto it and trust it.

Martha writes, “I need help.  When I listen to Grow Taller hypnosis recordings I feel sensations only on the left side of my body and now that I have measured myself, I noticed that my left foot is 1 cm bigger than my right foot.  What should I do to make one body grow taller evenly?

Our bodies are not symmetrical, though the differences may be minor and some people perhaps don’t notice them and those who notice these minor differences just accept them.  The heart is on the left side of the body, the liver on the right side, and as many people notice when they are buying shoes, one foot may be slightly bigger than another.  In women one breast may be somewhat larger than another.

When people make circles with their hips, some find it easier rotating them to the right, others to the left.  When it comes to using hands, some people find it more natural to write with their right hand, others with their left hand.  Our left and right side of the brain are different.  Our left and right side of the face are slightly different.  The bottom line is – as much as we find symmetrical bodies esthetically pleasing, none of us has perfectly symmetrical body, and that’s fine.

Our ability in using left and right hand, arm, foot or leg may be slightly different.  While we may not notice any major difference when simply walking or running, when we’re dancing or spinning on one foot, we may become more aware that some moves are easier when we do them with the left than with the right foot.

Some people hear better with the left ear than with the right, or see better with the left eye than with the right.  And some may be more aware of the sensations in the left or right side of the body, while others may not be aware of any major differences.  Of course, you can exercise the part of the body where you’d like to feel more sensation, but it is not necessary.

Right now when you think of yourself being of a certain height, whichever way you think about it and whichever way you are experiencing your body is fine.  When you think of your body being taller, simply think of it in the same way.  It will be sufficient for working with Grow Taller hypnosis program.  Your body will grow as symmetrically as it grew naturally up to this point, and you can feel free to imagine it growing as symmetrically as it is possible for a body to be.

Alex asked whether the height increase gained with self-hypnosis is permanent or temporary because he read in some forums that a couple of people increased height with self-hypnosis and when they stopped listening to CDs, they lost some or all of the height they have gained.

One man increased height from 5’8.5 – 5’11. The man couldn’t believe he increased in height that much. Alex didn’t specify how long it took the man to gain that height. When the man stopped listening to CDs he lost all that height in a matter of few weeks. And another man said he increased height 4 cm, and lost 1 cm when he stopped listening to the CDs.

Here it is also not clear when and how many times these men measured themselves. Everyone’s height fluctuates and everyone may measure a little bit taller after a long night’s sleep due to spinal decompression, and be a little bit shorter at the end of the day, due to spinal compression. When people are feeling good about themselves, they may measure a little bit taller, when they are feeling depressed, they may measure a little bit shorter. Spinal compression or decompression, one’s posture and mood may all influence the height at the moment it is measured – so it’s important to take several measurements for two days in a row, in the morning and in the evening, and then calculate the average.

One of the differences between Deep Trance Now Grow Taller program and other grow taller programs is that it comes with Grow Taller Bonus Reports which go over many important points and contain additional mind-training exercises and tons of useful information that will ensure that the height increase is permanent.

We all tend to gravitate toward that which is familiar, toward that to which we have become accustomed. When we experience a change, no matter how wonderful, we will tend to keep on sliding back to our comfort zone, until we become habituated to the new state and this new state becomes our new comfort zone.

The man whom Alex offered as a first example said himself that he couldn’t believe the height increase he experienced. It was a new experience for him, and not the height that he has become accustomed to having, so he began to slide back to the height that he has been used to having. He didn’t give himself time to become used to new height and he stopped working with the program too early.

Even though many people experience height increase even within a month or two of working with hypnosis CDs, I recommend that people who work with Deep Trance Now Grow Taller program work with it for one year, to ensure that height increase is permanent. Deep Trance Now Grow Taller program comes with bonus reports which are intended to be worked with throughout one year. Even if someone gets desired results within few months, I still recommend that the person continues listening if not every day, then few times a week to Grow Taller program until the gained height becomes stabilized, that is until the person becomes fully comfortable and used to the new height.

Jahzeel writes, “I am very much interested in self-hypnosis. I am actually practicing it twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. Although I have just been practicing for 3 days, I get impatient at times even to the point of having doubts. My goal actually is to increase my height, to broaden my hips and to reshape my nose. I have read threads about dong self-hypnosis and seems like there are those who have been successful in their goals.

I just want an assurance from you that self-hypnosis really works for increasing one’s height. I am really looking forward to hearing answers from you,. please, I am getting desperate. I need someone like you to shed me light. Thanks again.”

The best way to get assurance that self-hypnosis works for height-increase is from your own experience.  As you’ve already discovered, you may get inspired by reading about success of other people, but you’ll never know for sure what you can do using the power of your mind just by reading about other people’s experience or asking someone what is possible.  You’ll gain assurance and confidence from your own experience.

The only place where you can begin is from where you are at – at this very moment.  If you’ve never used self-hypnosis successfully before, then you begin by using it on goals that you know for sure you can achieve, preferably within a short period of time.  Each time you use self-hypnosis, you get a feedback and you learn what makes it easier for you to get the results you desire, and what makes it more challenging, so you begin to fine-tune the way you use the power of your mind and you begin doing more and more of those things that are effective, based on your experience, and avoid doing things that are not effective.

Eventually you learn that the trick is in enjoying the experience and in allowing it to happen, rather than in trying to force anything to happen.  And you learn that you can experience even instant results when you let go and allow whatever happens to happen, and that it may take forever to experience desired results when you are feeling anxious or impatient.  And then you learn that a sense of joyful expectation will bring you positive results faster, while a sense of desperation will tend to kill the effectiveness whatever it is you are attempting to do with your mind.  And you learn that self-hypnosis works when you know what you’re doing, when you know how to use the power of your mind effectively.

Dan writes, “I have some question. I’ve tried to visualize with closed eyes and for me it’s impossible. When my eyes are closed, I only see black and nothing else but when my eyes are opened I find it’s so easy to visualize stuff. I’ve always been a day dreamer, even in school my mind was always wandering and of course my grades suffered because of it. How come I can’t visualize with closed eyes? Is daydreaming considered visualization? How can I train my brain to SEE with closed eyes? I DO NOT SEE through my third eye and i wish i could. My husband try to teach me how to see my chakras but it doesn’t seem to click in with me. WHY ME? Hopefully you can help me. Thank you.”

Of course you can visualize with your eyes closed or open.  It seems that when you close your eyes, you are focusing on what you can see through your physical eyes, instead of simply focusing on what you are thinking.  You are free to think about anything you want, whether your eyes are open or closed.  Visualization is a name given to thinking about something with any of your senses, even though most people think about visualizing in images – as in, giving form to something.

If you can close your eyes and describe what you are wearing with your eyes closed, or describe how your bedroom looks like, you’ll be definitely using your ability to visualize, to see images, even if those images may pass so fast through your mind that to you it seems as if you’ve seen nothing, but in order to describe how something looks like, you’d have to access the part of your brain that processes images.

For the purpose of growing taller, it doesn’t really matter whether your eyes are open or closed, and it doesn’t matter whether you can see images clearly.  Some people are more kinesthetic, and they find it easier to focus on feelings – and if you are more kinesthetic, you can imagine how it FEELS growing taller and being taller.

Someone who is more auditory, may be inclined to focus easier on how something sounds, and perhaps when such a person subjectively experiences desired height, he may be more focused on some sound, perhaps clicking sound, or a sound of a switch, or some other sound that to that person represents growing taller or being of desired height.

Ideally, the person would practice using all of his senses – experiencing himself growing taller and being of desired height with all of his senses – seeing himself growing taller and being of a desired height, feeling himself growing taller and being of a desired height, and maybe saying something to himself or hearing other people complimenting him or involving any other sounds that fit his subjective experience.

You can train yourself to see with your minds eye by looking at something in your environment, closing your eyes, and describing how it looks like.  If you can write words in English correctly, then you are definitely using your ability to visualize, because it’s impossible to spell English words otherwise since many of them are written one way and pronounced in a different way, so you can close your eyes and spell different words.  You can also put some object in front of you, perhaps a candle, look at it for a while, close your eyes, and replicate that image in your mind – if the words “visualization” or “mind’s eye” are confusing you, then simply think of that candle when you close your eyes.

Fionn from Germany writes, “I purchased your Growing Taller Hypnosis set a few years ago, but I was sceptical and so I completely stopped listening to it.  I am 23 years old now and in the meantime have read a lot about suggestions/self-hypnosis, paranormal faculties and many more very interesting topics. I have finally arrived at a point where I can say that I truely believe in my inner process that makes my body grow taller now.

I wanted to know your opinion about this:
I am working out (weightlifting, i.e. benchpress, squats, …) three times a week with heavy weights and was wondering whether I should stop or at least use lighter weights during my growth process. I am not quite sure, since growing taller now is taking place in a kind of different way (compared to my growth spurt during puberty), at least I think so.

So what do you think about this, what would you recommend or what would you do in my situation?

My mind is clear and focused now, my desire is burning like thousand suns and I know it’s happening now!

Thank you!”

When you are using the power of your mind to increase the height of your body, your body will grow in the same way it grew in the first place.  You are not asking your body to do anything unnatural or different than it did when your body grew in puberty.  The process your body goes through is the same.  You are merely engaging the process to continue by communicating to your body your desire for your body to keep growing taller – by subjectively experiencing yourself as being taller.

Evolutionary, throughout history, bodies of humans (and for that matter of animals also), would change in response to meeting a certain need.  Different abilities would also unfold in response to meeting a certain need.  We are constantly influencing our bodies as well as development of different abilities within us either consciously or unconsciously by what we choose to pay attention to.  We are constantly stimulating changes within us by thinking and feeling in specific ways.  Most of the time we are doing these things spontaneously and unconsciously.  You may read a book or watch a movie, and you are processing the information in your mind and in your emotions, sometimes comparing it to your past experiences, sometimes simply allowing your mind to stretch expand and explore the possibilities that you may not have experienced before.  And then by the time you’ve finished reading a book or watching a movie, you may feel a little bit different, because you’ve just experienced a self-hypnosis session, even though you may never have thought of it that way.

And the only difference in practicing self-hypnosis with recordings is that you have a specific goal in mind and you are choosing to pursue it intentionally.  Instead of perhaps watching a movie with Alice in Wonderland seeing a bottle with a label “drink me”, and watching her drink the magic potion and then growing taller, and subconsciously wondering how would that feel like, and then imagining and feeling yourself growing taller together with the Alice, and then perhaps discovering that you are a little bit taller after watching that scene – if you allowed yourself to immerse yourself in that imagery and feeling – in self-hypnosis session you decide to envision yourself as growing taller with a specific goal – of becoming taller.

Your body is fluid, flexible and if you put aside any of your analytical thoughts of what may or may not be possible according to whatever you may have learned so far about physical matter – if you just allow yourself to immerse yourself in the experience of growing taller, you may notice visible difference after your session.  There are actors who can increase few inches in height simply by getting into a role of a character they have identified to be few inches taller.  Acting is just another name for self-hypnosis, for playing the games of pretending, for allowing yourself to immerse yourself in particular subjective experience.  And the more you play with your mind, the more you allow yourself to immerse yourself in roles you’d love to experience in your life – in a playful way, as if you are conducting an experiment, allowing whatever happens to happen – the faster results will you get.  It is when you are straining and struggling that you are putting a halt on the process because you are not really allowing yourself to simply immerse yourself in the experience and enjoy it.

Now, if you think of your spine as decompressing and elongating when you lay down, and compressing during the day due to weight, sure if you weren’t using the power of your mind, the additional weight you put on your body when you are doing weight-lifting, would to some extent further compress your spine and shorten it, making you appear shorter.  Then again, you may as well engage in stretching exercises to decompress your spine – before and after you do weight-lifting.  After all, you should be doing stretching exercises before and after any strenuous physical activity.

From the perspective of hypnosis, of using the power of your mind to grow taller, ultimately it doesn’t matter whether you are doing weight-lifting or not.  If you look around there are plenty of tall body builders.  If you keep on envisioning your body as growing taller, or rather if you keep on subjectively experiencing your body as growing taller until it is as tall as you desire it, your body will grow taller, whether you’re weight-lifting or not.  And even now, if you keep on measuring your body at different times of the day, and on different days, your body may sometimes be a little bit shorter, and at other times a little bit taller.  It may be a little bit taller when you get up because your spine has decompressed, it can be a little bit taller when you are feeling good, when you are feeling naturally high and happy and tall, it can be a little bit taller when you straighten up your body and walk tall.

And when you are weight-lifting, you can imagine your body being flexible, elastic like rubber, and elongating each time you release the weights, being taller than it was before.  An analogy to this would be stretching your fists tight, as tight as you can, when you want to experience deep relaxation.  Or you can think of a pendulum swinging one way and then another.  You can use any imagery than works for you and helps you to envision and subjectively experience yourself having your desired outcome.
