May 3, 2023 (IANSlife) Almost 30-40 years ago, it was said that genes are final. They are ultimate, they control and dominate our growth and health and they put down the blueprint of their diseases. But recently, a lot of modern research and modern science has established that genes can express in different ways; should we discipline ourselves, and build new memory patterns through new behaviour, attitude, thoughts, and intentions?
There is a book on the same called ‘Biology of Belief’. Also, there are new sciences like epigenetics, trans epigenetic reset, neuroplasticity, mind-gut access, the science of telomere, and the science of microbiota. These are the sciences that not just suggest but also validate that, yes, every child is born with a predetermined genetic disposition that can be altered with conscious behaviour.
"Children are like soft clays. They can be moulded in any form the way we expect them to grow, nourish, and flourish. How soon should we respond to this? That becomes very critical and important for a child’s growth, especially if the child is born out of a gene pool that is not so strong. Then obviously, we can start all the efforts on the child from the age of 4 or 5 years of age. So that by the time the child gets to 15 or 18 years of age, obviously a child would have added a lot of boosted growth from the normal growth design otherwise," says Dr. Mickey Mehta.
"Child development is aimed at children up to 18 years of age and will help facilitate children's height growth with the support of specific exercises, nutritional advice, sensible and effective supplementation, lifestyle changes like - appropriate rest, deep breathing, meditation, and time-to-time positive affirmations. In life, a powerful gearshift of energy happens as we start maneuvering from food to working out to regulation of the breath to chanting to meditation. Exercises such as: twisting, side bending, forward and backward bending, tadasana walk, spot jog, mountain and snake position, jumping jacks, and pawanmuktasana will help improve the posture and therefore, height."
Here are a few other tips you can use to boost your height:
