Grow taller with me

I have to say goodbye...

2010-11-01T11:50:00.002-04:00

Dear friends, I just can not keep up with my business, surprisingly my business goes so well in China. I went back China this month and visited Beijing, Tianjin, and Shenzhen, everywhere seems having a lot of business oportunities, . I stayed in a 4 star hotel, but internet was slow and limited, I could not scroll down my emails.

I just signed a contract with a company in China to export American staff to Chinese market....I can do a little bit meditation myself when I have time, but no time to take care of this blog. I do not want to give up, but I have to. I think I put enough message here for everyone to share. Best wishes to everyone here, I will leave the blog open and feel free to write anything here to exchange ideas with others.

Today is the Most Important

2010-09-11T00:57:00.003-04:00

I am jammed with work and need go back China for a week in October. Right now I am working on 6 projects and plus this. Well, no complaints, I love my business! It usually goes like this: after I finished one project, I met new people in China. Soon they asked me to work with them for another project. Or while I was working with people in China, I spotted new projects. Some people have trouble to find a job, but if you are brave or diligent enough, walk out of your own world, you will find out a lot things you can do.

Back to my Qigong practice, I love it. I should measure myself this Wednesday, but was out of time. I will do so next week.

My point today is: no matter what you do, keep a mind of your practice. When you have enough focus, your body will move. Don't just expect that day's coming.

One more thing, I heard inversion table works quite well, anyone has interest to buy one plus meditation? As long as it works, you should try, time is limited.

My Own Doubt

2010-09-06T00:28:00.002-04:00

I was very excited starting this one year program and thought to write down everyday what happened to me as Julie. Soon I discovered that I am not making a new dish each day. Also I always have more work to do than my time allows me. I have to modify my plan, to write on this blog once a few days, instead of once a day.

I'd like to extend my practice longer in the evening and morning times. Right now I did half an hour in the afternoon, mainly for having a lunch break. But the other two I just feel not long enough, because when it is time to stop, my body still wants me to go on. I had my iphone alarm set up after 5m, 20, and 30m in the past. Now I will try 5m, 30, and 40m. If you want to follow me, you can, or just stick to the 30m schedule.

Now my own doubt is what if I do not grow anymore? That will embarrass myself and make others disappointed. Probably everyone here has this doubt. So we should encourage each other more by sharing our experience. We can tell others what time we do the practice, so we will send positive signals to that person at that time. How is that?

Here is my time:
9:00pm--9:40pm
6:00am--6:40am
1:00pm--1:30pm

The First Day

2010-09-02T13:54:00.002-04:00

I finally made up my mind yesterday to start. It was about 12:15pm, I found a place in our TV room to take my pictures and a video. It was a brick wall next to the fireplace, so it is easy to spot where I am. It took me a while to set up the camera, etc. I am around 5'4'' and 124 pounds. The goal is 5'6''.

I did serious meditation yesterday afternoon and about half an hour last night. I felt so good. If I do not have so many projects going on, I'd rather to do meditation home, it is like opium, even though I've never had drugs.

This morning my 3 year old daughter wanted me to take her to swim, I went swimming with her for half an hour. That was good. Did not have time to do exercises yesterday. I need set up my alarm tonight.

ARE YOU READY?

2010-08-31T15:29:00.003-04:00

I am going to commit one year to raise my height again. If you want to go along with me, get it ready tonight. Tomorrow 10am, I am going to find a clear place to measure and mark my height. Take pictures and a video. I listened to my tape made before. Too much talking. I will do meditation myself for the first 10 days then make a new audio tape to listen to.

Again, my method is not exclusive to others. Use as many methods as you can find.

Tomorrow evening I will report how I feel.

BTW, for those who I have not responded, I will not. If you have questions, write on the blog. I will not respond on my email either. Just don't have enough time~

What to Prepare

2010-08-25T12:32:00.003-04:00

I will prepare a few things before Sept. 1st:

1, A fix place to measure my height;
2, A measuring tape to mark my height;
3, Take pictures & videos at the first day of each month;
4, Prepare a water bottle as an item to concentrate on. (I find a small water bottle as a symbol is quite helpful to bring my energy to my inner bright ball.)

For those who want to follow me, you can do the same thing.

BTW, where is a good place to put my audio at? Youtube only allows 10 minutes maximum.

Alright, My New Plan

2010-08-23T14:15:00.004-04:00

OK, guys, I thought about it in the past week. If I do not do it, I will always regret not doing so. So now I will set up a one year goal to check whether a person can still grow taller after puberty. I am going to be 30 years old in January 2011. My plan is starting from September 1st, 2010 to September 1st, 2011. Instead of working with another person, I will practice growing taller meditation daily and find out how much I can grow. I set up 2 inches as basic. So I will do the following:

1, Practice half an hour before I get up;
2, Do one hour exercises in gym in the morning, various kinds. My sub-goal is to make myself healthy and in a good shape as well;
3, Practice half an hour at noon time if I have time;
4, Practice half an hour before I go to sleep.

I will make new tapes occasionally for myself and for you to listen to. I will try to write down what happens to me daily. I will also take some of my pictures. In the end of the year, if I am satisfied with the result, I will post them out~

Some people want to get together to practice. I thought about it, no better ideas but you just put comments under each article. I hope I am encouraged enough by Julie and get the work done. The best, some or all of us will grow quite a bit in this year.

In the next few days, I will write down more details on how I will do. Then we can start properly.

I am back

2010-08-12T15:35:00.002-04:00

Hi everyone there reading my blog, I am finally back. I went back China in April and came back in June for my business and family visit. I went to quite a few cities and had a lot of fun. I am so devoted to my work that I have no time to train my friend to grow anymore.

Last week, my husband introduced me the movie, "Julie & Julia"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjvJHsJD8ic

I felt a sort of lost...I am so busy nowadays that we watched the movie three times and still have about 20 minutes left. I remember seeing my business adviser after I came back from China. She asked me what I wanted to do the most, I said, "meditation". She looked at me and said “you make me crazy"...because we were discussing which project to pick to work on.

I just checked my gmail account, there are 597 new emails. And here there are more than 100 comments I have not answered. I plan to finish the movie tonight with my husband and really set up one year plan like Julie to work with my friend and see if she can grow 2 inches. Let me think about it in a few days.

Keep on Working, I Will be Back Later Next Week

2009-04-10T14:52:00.002-04:00

Quite busy recently. Just noticed a lot of comments here and emails. I will come back later next week. Keep on your practice.

One thing I need point: do not ask too many details, grasp the main point. You can expand my method to your own usage.

Share Your Stories Here

2009-03-12T00:53:00.004-04:00

For your convenience, I will always put my audios on the top of each article.
http://www.box.net/shared/zrbda97k39#growTALLERwithme
http://www.box.net/shared/i55d66u8o6

Some people reported to me their successful stories, some still have difficulty to grasp the method. So please share your happiness or worries here with other friends. Together we can help each other more.

Every Breath Counts

2009-03-12T00:38:00.003-04:00

Deep breathing is so important that I can’t describe how much it plays in this height change process. It is like blood to bring all of nutrition to your body. Your order is the nutrition which can go around your body with your deep breathing.

Your body is with you but is also like a blocked house. Deep breathing with your guidance is the best way to see its dynamic movement. The more you practice the more you can feel the movement of your body. Therefore, it is good to have a habit of breathing deeply at any time. Later on, you will find this will help you with more benefits…

Okay, the first financial report: I upgraded my box.net in order to put more audios. It is $7.95 per month. I received donation in total $212, so it will keep this box working for a while.

Second Audio is Made

2009-03-04T15:02:00.003-05:00

I finally made it. In this one I gave more explanations while you practicing. You probably need one just telling you growing taller and breathing deeply. Yes, I will make a simpler version soon for those who have practiced for a while.

Here it is: http://www.box.net/shared/i55d66u8o6

Enjoy and Grow Taller :)

A Technical Problem

2009-02-27T11:43:00.002-05:00

I am trying to make a new audio, but could not find where the files I tried are stored. I do not have time to figure it out myself today or the weekend, probably next Monday or Tuesday.

A Few Issues

2009-02-22T01:12:00.004-05:00

Oh, it took me a few days finishing the last three months emails. Those I missed please send me again your questions.

From the emails and comments from this blog, no.1 problem is confidence. I grew 4 inches from my own work and confidence. My confidence was from many years of research. So I had no doubt. But my own experience is not good enough for everyone. So my advice is to practice daily and keep on doing it for at least 3 months. If there is no result, this may not be the right thing for you, or you may combine this with something else. Just write to me, let me see your case.

Another issue is some comfortable or uncomfortable feeling from legs while practicing. The point is any physical responses during your practice should be ignored. You have to follow my audio or my method, concentrating on your breathing and visualization. Your mind guides your body. If you really feel uncomfortable. Stop and imagine all the energy going into your bright ball till every drop back.

Third, how to practice. Just lay comfortablly on bed, coach, or sit on a chair. I never said you have to lay on a floor, or to sit still or lay still. You can always move. Make yourself comfortable and relax.

Finally money issue. I have this blog not for money, but money gives me motivation to take care of emails and the blog. There are in total 4 people donated. They are Txxxt, Txxxn, Axxxxw, Yxxxxxg. Now you know how rich I am :) Thank you for the support guys and I will try to make a new audio next week.

Please Wait...

2009-02-17T11:42:00.002-05:00

I have my own business, so please forgive me not caring about you recently as I promised. I was scared even to open my email account or check this blog. I know a lot of people want my help...finally I did today...oh, my!

I will be back in a few days and make a new audio soon. Please feel free to download my audio, no burden to pay me. You can do it anytime or notime :)

Sharing Your Experience Here

2008-11-25T09:55:00.004-05:00

This thread is devoted to those who use my audio or method practicing in order to grow taller. Put your thoughts, suggestions, experience here for other to share and to learn from others.

A Few Notes

2008-11-23T00:34:00.003-05:00

My name: since it is difficult for English speakers to call my Chinese name, I decide my English name Nicole. I will change that in my next audio,too.

How to imagine: in order to vividly imagine your body elongating process, you can imagine your body like many other things, a balloon, or as a big piece of dough, you can reshape it easily, etc.

Practice with sound? No. A lot of people mistakenly think my method requires speaking out with sound. No need at all. You talk to yourself inside, no sound is needed to be heard and no move of your lips, a soundless talk in your mind...my audio does no count your own sound.

A New One-Year Grow Taller Project

2008-11-22T23:35:00.006-05:00

I finally decide to start this project that I have thought about for a long time: to increase a lady’s height ideally 3 inches by the end of 2009. The lady I will do experiment with is 37 years old and is exactly 5 feet tall now. I have worked with her 4 days and will work with her everyday. I will take her photos and/or videos once a week. By the end of 2009, I will release details on what happened.

Hopefully there is going to be a great change on this lady, from which you will add absolute confidence on increasing your height at any age by your own power, by self hypnosis, or by meditation, whatever you call it.

This is going to be a grand project and I have to devote both time and money into it. The result depends on how much effort I put into it, so I am very grateful if you can donate after downloading my audio or whichever other ways.

Finally, the Grow Taller Audio is Made

2008-11-14T14:51:00.005-05:00

Dear friends,

I finally made a 30 minute audio for you to listen when you practice grow taller exercise. You can download it here:

http://www.box.net/shared/zrbda97k39#growTALLERwithme

All I put here is from my own experience, which is through deep breathing, visualization and somewhat mind guidance or hypnotism. After listen to my audio, please send me your comments.

Above all, I am here again to help you grow taller and to be happier.

Back Again

2008-11-12T17:30:00.003-05:00

Yeah, I am back. There are so many emails to answer and posts here to answer, I do not know how to start it. The most of all is to see Randy's great achievement, and thankful to his graceful picture to give those who need a great inspiration. I decide to ignore all of the questions before and if you still need ask me, send me emails or post here, I will answer.

I have made an audio for you guys when you practice for half an hour. But it is a half an hour Windows Media Player audio, I just could not put it on my blog. And I tried to email with zip form, but too large to pass by email.

Let me know how I can put the grow taller audio on my blog or any other way to do it.

Temporary Stop

2008-08-17T05:23:00.004-04:00

Dear friends,

As you may notice that I have not put anything on this blog for a while. I wanted to make a CD for you guys, but in reality it is impossible to find enough time to make it. Very sorry.

The main reason is my working time around clock. You may notice what time I put this on. Anyway, I feel instead of just being silent, I should come to make an announcement that I will not answer emails or put new things on this blog for a while. When I will come back depends on how my business goes.

Nevertheless, my blog offers enough information for you to know me and to practice growing taller method. It worked for me, so try if it works for you.

How Can I Make a CD for You to Listen?

2008-06-12T16:20:00.002-04:00

I have been thinking to make a half-hour CD or tape or something that you can download from my blog to listen to when you practice. But I do not know how to do that. Any suggestions?

Trinity

2008-02-20T20:31:00.000-05:00

I am not talking about Christian trinity here, but growing taller trinity. When you have interest to try my method, take about half an hour in the morning and half an hour in the evening. When you practice, always, always remember the trinity:

Deep breath: slowly, smoothly, patiently.

Visualization: seeing your body growing taller, extending longer vividly.

Language: talking to yourself while doing the above two, words like “grow taller”, “taller”, etc.

This is the central piece of my practice. It will bring out a tremendous result for you. You can check my previous essays for more details on these three points. Here is just to refresh your mind.

Your Story 2

2008-01-01T02:19:00.000-05:00

Here you go. I will try to be more frequent to answer your questions.
Best wishes to everyone.

Happy New Year!

2008-01-01T02:17:00.000-05:00

Thank you for all of you guys who read my blog and come to consult with me. I am more than happy to offer my knowledge for your height increase. I will set up a new “Your Story” for 2008. For the questions mentioned in the previous “Your Story”, I will answer in a few days.

Sorry not updating my blog for a while. 2007 is a very busy year for me. I have been working on my own business, actually I have two business going now. You may know, it is really hard to start a new business and push it forward.

When you practice in the darkness, remember every breath counts and I am here supporting your practice.

With love.

Happy New Year to everyone here!

Something More Exciting

2007-09-20T02:06:00.001-04:00

Your Story

2007-02-19T15:04:00.000-05:00

I set this entry for people to put their practicing stories in. Some people have very slow progress, some very fast. Please share your stories with others, I believe eventually we can all benefit from one another.

Why Do Headache or Sleep Occur?

2007-02-12T00:53:00.000-05:00

More often I get mails from people saying that when they practice they get headache or fall to sleep. How do I explain these phenomena?

There are two major elements in my way of height increase, breathing and thinking. We can all breathe unconsciously, but that does not increase our height effectively. Only breathing with thinking can we change our height. This is because if you do it right, your body follows your thinking by the power of Qi, which derives from breathing. Then, the question is what is right and what is wrong? Some people want to see the quick result without slow practice, headache comes right away. You need realize that slow breathing practice is the only way for your body to find harmonious frequency between your breathing and thinking. Most of the time, people think faster than where the breath actually goes, which causes quickening the speed of breathing. This induces too much Qi gathering in head and bringing headache.

How to solve headache? Two things you can do. First, slow your practice. Slower, slower, and slower. Gradually you will find out slower is better than faster. Second, stop what you do and jump to step 4 when you feel headache. Put your attention to your bright ball. If you concentrate for a longer time, you will find out that the Qi from your head moves down and gathers to the ball. Your whole body become clear and light. Usually you will feel a click inside your head in a certain time as if an electric shock, something I really can not explain, but pleasant and enlightening.

If you always go to sleep in the middle of practice, it is the same as you leave in a middle of a match. There would be no final score to see. How can we improve this seemingly uncontrollable phenomenon to happen? To be prepared at the beginning is the best way. First, having an alarm set is important. So you won’t feel at lose at the middle of practice, because you know your alarm will let you know when the time is over. Second, if you are an easy sleeper, you can practice with a sitting position. I find this is a much easier way to control when you lay down to sleep.

Chinese like to say, “I think in my heart.” It does not make sense in our modern understanding on how we think. But I see some truth behind. If you consider your heart as a bright ball and imagine all of your thoughts coming from the ball, you will find a different way of thinking. This kind of thinking somehow can be truer than the one derived from your mind. Through longer practice, you will see this way of thinking makes your mind clear and body healthier. Surely problems like headache or sleep will be out of question.

Focus Focus and Focus

2007-01-15T02:13:00.000-05:00

Through my own experience, I realize that in order to achieve anything the most important thing is to focus on what you are doing. You will get to your goal after continuing work. Nobody, nobody can stop you from reaching anywhere you want to do.

I remember a mediocre movie I saw a few years ago. Even though I do not remember the name of the movie, one part just marked into my mind forever. An old cowboy showed his index finger to a young man passing the Middle-West. He said, “Young man, one, one, just one thing you do right, your life will be succeed.” I was thinking at that time that if I can focus on one thing and make it successful, my life will be great. The fruit of success is sweet, but you should try to taste the sweetness on the path, not just when you reach your goal. By this way, you can always be energetic and happy to what you do everyday.

Now to our growing taller path, you need focus on deep breath, visualization, words, and the bright energy ball. Follow your time schedule. Focus focus, focus! Do not stop. Just like the Sun comes out from the East everyday, there is no exception. Suddenly you will find out….oh, My God! Is this me?

New Year's Resolution

2006-12-22T00:36:00.001-05:00

2007 is coming soon. Are you thinking about what you plan to achieve in the New Year?

I made a lot of New Year’s resolutions before and many of them are just a few months or weeks zeal. But from which there are a few things that stick in your mind year after year and finally you tell yourself “I can not bare this anymore”. It was like what I did for 2003’s resolution. I promised myself that I will follow my rule strictly in order to grow taller. Now I can always be proud of what I did.

My suggestion is to make a list of things you really want to change, physically, mentally, etc. And choose one or two items to focus on. If you plan to or have planed to work out for taller body by my method, do not hesitate to contact me at anytime. I will be here to help you out and make you stick to your plan in the year 2007.

Once Upon a Time

2006-11-19T02:22:00.000-05:00

There were two monks living in Sichuan province. One was very poor and one very rich. They both wanted to go to the end of Yangtze River and see Pacific ocean. But it was not easy because the ocean was thousands miles away.

The poor monk disappeared for months and appeared the second year. The rich monk was surprised seeing him again and asked him where he went. He said I finally went to see Pacific Ocean. The rich was even more surprised. He said it would take him for at least two months to get there. Besides he needed prepare a lot of money and several servants to go with him for this long trip. How could the poor get there? The poor said I just needed a set of clothes and a bowl. The rich one felt very ashamed.

Our HI practice is a long journey. Only those with strong will can reach the goal. There are many obstacles in our daily life which prevent us from keeping on going smoothly, but once you set up your mind and keep on practicing you will reach the goal. How sure is that? I can not tell you, you will find out yourself.

Keep On

2006-11-05T01:51:00.000-05:00

Yes, time goes by quickly. It has been almost three months since I started my blog. Have you been keeping on practicing daily? If you have diligently, you probably see some difference of your height, or you may notice the connection between your breath and your body. It took me about six months to see a clear height increase but I always felt the light of the end of the tunnel after finishing daily practice.

Success relies on grand determination, but more on details: little bit work out every day. Strangely these two things sometimes do not go together at all.

If you want to grow taller and follow my method, make a chart and mark on the days you really practiced.

Remember deep breathing and imagination.

What Should I Say More?

2006-10-26T23:48:00.000-04:00

If you are looking forward to reading more writings from me, please wait till this weekend.
If you are serious, please read what I wrote and practice daily. There is not much to say, but a lot to practice. Stick to the method and practice.
Let me know your questions, I am happy to answer.

Are You Lazy?

2006-10-13T22:59:00.001-04:00

Without outside push, we can hardly finish our work on time. To grow taller is not a homework that we have to give to our teacher on time, nor a task that we have to show to our boss. We are responsible to ourselves, therefore we easily forgive our laziness.

Can I be your teacher to push you harder? I require you to hand in your homework everyday at noon, which is two sections of practice. And I require you to grow a certain inches in a year.

I know sometimes being lazy can be corrected by just changing something small. For example, you probably go to sleep in the middle of your practice, so why don’t you have your alarm or cell-phone to remind you when your practice finishes. If you were asleep then, you may consider to restart.

Another important thing is to design what you are going to do in your mind first. When you start to practice, you tell yourself that you are going to be awake for half an hour and you will grow half an inch in this half an hour practice. Your body will gradually be used to your order. By the same way, you keep on telling yourself that you will finish your job of growing a certain height in a year.

Never be lazy and give up even when you do not see any change, because not being lazy and giving up means you are moving upward.

Your Target

2006-10-09T15:41:00.000-04:00

From my own experience, to have a clear target on what I plan to achieve is important. It gives me a time frame on how to arrange things. The target is something we should at the beginning believe that we could reach.

Let’s make the issue an easier way of thinking. For example, if you are in Miami and plan to go to San Diego, you go buy an airplane ticket. The plane will send you there in a certain time. You will never doubt whether you will be there or not. It is the same matter when you plan to grow taller. You should believe that your height will grow to your planned height by a reasonable time frame. What you need do is to get on the airplane, namely keep on practicing.

The doubt we have usually is because we have not seen so many precedents as we see people stepping out of an airplane. I am here to wipe off all of these dusts on the way to the terminal for you. It is a clean path, there is nothing stopping you from moving forward except you stopping yourself.

Keep on marching and you will be there..

Deep Breathing

2006-10-03T00:20:00.000-04:00

Deep breathing is essential for growth. It wakes your whole body deeply. One thing scientifically speaking is to bring more oxygen to the body. Your blood circulation, nerve system, etc, all respond more than shallow breathing. When you inhale, you make sure that your chest expanding. If you want, you can hold your breath for a few seconds. This can tighten your stomach muscle and improve the blood circulation in your head. Finally when you exhale deeper and slower, you offer more energy to your body. Soon, you will find your body, especially your legs will respond more actively when you practice at night. You can feel electricity like energy moving inside your legs and your legs extending forward more.

Deep breathing should be done in a natural and slow way. If you put too much attention to it you may get some tension in some parts of your body.

During the day, you can practice it whenever you remember: deep breath. It will make you feel better. So from now on you should put more time doing deep breathing.

I know it is hard to do it all the time, of course you prefer the easy way. And it is not easy to remember to do it during the day. That is why I put some extra words here to remind you and I will remind you again and again.

More We Can Do?

2006-09-29T23:57:00.000-04:00

Our brain is the most valuable thing in this world. As Kant says what our human beings are different from other species is that we are the only ones who ask questions to nature and try to find out answers. So our future is unpredictable unlike animals.

You, as a perfect human being, should not confine your thinking into a certain circle. You should believe your own ability and believe that you will realize your dream sooner or later. Here are a few tips for you to think when you practice growing taller Qigong.

First, Can you imagine your body is like a house, or a balloon?

When you lay down at night starting to practice, you can imagine standing inside the front door of a house at night. Then you turn on the light, and you see everything inside the house. Your heart, lung, stomach, bones, muscles, joints are so clear to you that you can feel them.

Then imagine your body is like a big balloon, you can extend it so easily. This is from a lesson that I learned from a Qigong class. My Qigong teacher taught us to imagine our body being extended by Qi like a balloon, well, his purpose was to let us feel the circulation of Qi. He also taught us to imagine a piece of thin brick (about half thickness as a normal brick) as a piece of Tofu when we use our hand to break it. It was so much fun when I saw myself breaking thin bricks.

Second, can you have the consciousness that your body is in the same situation during the day as when you practice Qigong at night?

Even if you have a lot of work to do during the day, you still concern about your height in the back of your head all the time, I know how that feels. Why do not you add more to it? When you stand or walk, you can imagine exhaling and extending your body from the feet to the legs, the joints, the spine, the neck, to the sky. When you sit, you can imagine exhaling and extending your body from chest to arms neck, and feet. Gradually, you will form the habit of giving yourself a positive attitude when you see so many taller people around you because you are growing taller right now. And since you practice breathing with slow speed, your health and temperament will be improved.

Third, can you imagine that you are the bright light ball inside your body?

Our eyes are important. We depend on them to see the world and guide our mind thinking. But this is not it. If you try to put your mind into the ball and look around, you can find out you can see different world, you can control your energy easier, and your body is happier about this change. I feel when you exhale and see the Qi going down your body from the ball, your body is in the most relaxed condition and responds quicker.

Fourth, do you know what kind of nature you have?

I believe some of you may grow either much quicker than me or much slower even if you know Qigong from me and have never practiced meditation. Why? We have different nature. Some people are very suspicious about anything new they hear, some doubtful, some acceptable.

When you decide to do something, then you should let your mind free. Otherwise, when you practice, one part of your mind is still holding your action. The effect would be affected.

So you can give yourself some time to train your brain being totally free of worry. See how that goes. One way is to spend some time to practice just step one or four.

You do not need to know the whole system of Chinese culture or Qigong history like I did. Focus on one thing, relax, and you will find out what I mean yourself.

Happy weekend!

Will Be Back Soon

2006-09-28T14:39:00.000-04:00

Dear friends,
I have quite a few topics to talks about as I promised you, but have been busy on my own work.
Please forgive me, I will try to work harder and put new articles here asap.
Thanks.

The Fourth Step Explanation

2006-09-25T02:25:00.000-04:00

Fourth step:

In the end, use 5 to 10 minutes to imagine your body is extended and the present condition is perfectly preserved inside your chest as a bright ball. (Thank the growing taller god and ask the god to come back to help you again next time when you practice.)

Explanation:

When you practice your height increase Qigong, your Qi spreads all over your body to realize your wish. The fourth step is important is that it gathers your energy finally into the bright ball again, so your body is united into this one bright ball with your imagined ideal height stored. You can find out that with more and more practice, this final step makes the nerve system inside your brain respond the most. It is like electricity flashing inside your head and your head becomes light and clear. You will feel a core like thing in the back of your head emitting energy around your head and back bone. I wonder whether that is the part we know producing growth hormone responding.

You can extend your practice during the day. You can remind yourself the existing of this energy bright ball, even better to imagine that you are the ball and your body is just a material for you to work on. Try one experiment: when you have headache, ignore your body, just put your whole mind into the ball. Can you feel that your headache is releasing? I certainly do. By the same method, you can use it for any other usage you want.

There is something similar between the Sun and the bright ball. This universe depends on the Sun’s energy and our body depends on our bright ball’s energy. Hopefully this simile helps you visualizing the ball inside you easier and quicker.

Those who have an image of god helping you can go to sleep alone with god free by your courteous thank. I can not explain too much reason on this aspect, because I learned this from reading Taoist scriptures (especially in early Shangqing scriptures) and some Qigong practice. They taught me , for example, to imagine a god riding a seven colorful clouds descending into my certain part of my body giving me the energy from the clouds and I should thank the god who helps me. Many people claimed seeing gods in Qigong class, but I was unable to do so. So I do not know how much truth that holds, but I certainly feel quite comfortable to add this element into my practice.

Third Step Explanation

2006-09-23T03:20:00.000-04:00

Third Step:

Exhale and imagine spreading the energy into your body inside. You can imagine spreading the energy just to legs or from chest to all directions. During most of the time I imagine the first kind.

Important: With EACH exhalation, speak to yourself loudly inside "taller" and imagine your legs, (If you imagine the second way, then think about also your arms, and neck) extending longer. Soon you will find the power of speak is indescribable.

Explanation:

Imagination is so amazing that it can make you fly or swim or grow taller by just lying on the bed. Imagine, imagine, all you do is imagine. More importantly, you should make imagination real. You have to think your imagination is not just an imagination, it will become real and IT IS REAL RIGHT THIS MOMENT.

No effort is needed on your real body. This is very important. No physical effort. Sometimes we feel our real body responding to our thinking, we get excited and start moving our legs around trying to find out whether we really grow a little bit. Be calm, very calm, still be in the state of imagine. Why? Because any achievement is from our mental thinking, our physical move will disturb our mind. Nevertheless, I do not mean we should not do any physical exercises during the day, I myself love sports. But here we are in a completely different situation.

When you exhale and imagine the energy going down from the ball, you may find also at the same time it is easier to just follow your breath down your legs. You can do both or one of each. All of your thinking should be inside of your body, either going down to your legs or spread to your legs, arms, neck, spinal. You can imagine your body is the universe and you can stretch as much as you could inside. Or you are growing above your ideal height line. Anything that suits your mind should be good.

From my own experience, since just imagine the legs extended actually made the whole body grow, you should believe your body is smart enough to grow proportionally.

Finally, I need explain the importance of language, you can use the word I used or create your own. Why adding the element of language into our imagination will we speed up our practice more. I do not really know, but it works like this. Why there are the 'Six Syllable - ' or the 'Mani Mantra' Om Mani Padme Hum in Buddhism? I do not know, but here is something about the effect of sound may help us to see something more historical and spiritual: Seed Syllable

(from http://www.voxmundiproject.com/recommended_readings_13.htm)

A mantra is made up of one or more syllables, and almost any syllable can be used as a mantra. However, the most usual mantras are associated with a particular deity and appear as part of the ritual of worship of that deity -- a formula of praise/ invocation.

Certain individual sounds known as bijas, referred to as 'seed-syllables,' are thought to contain the essence of a mantra and, by association, the essence of the deity. For example, the Sanskrit (or the Tibetan) letter A (see red image below) is considered to stand for the essence of the Prajnaparamita (Heart Sutra) formula.

In the higher yoga tantras, the seed syllable plays an important role in the profound meditative process known as "taking the three kayas as a path," which is a technique to transform death, bardo and rebirth. Out of Space, we visualize the deity's seed syllable, the Samboghakaya (Enjoyment Body) understood as the mind of a Buddha, and this purifies the bardo state. The seed grows into the Nirmanakaya form of the deity, the actual manifestation which is understood to purify rebirth.

This ancient technique that uses the emergent and growing bija is a brilliant invention -- a multi-layered process in which the visual sign of a sound creates a kind of sensory synthesis. As it grows and transforms, we have an actual example of creation as in a "Word made Flesh" (New Testament, 'Gospel of John.') However, this ability is not to be thought of as the exclusive activity of omnipotent beings.

As we participate in this process of symbolizing symbols in which we draw out of Emptiness a name or label which then is made to grow into a form or object, in this case the actual form of a buddha, we are in immediate touch not only with the deity but with our own nature. We experience in an objective fashion, the basis and process by which all phenomena, including buddhas, arise.

Second Step Explanation

2006-09-17T01:57:00.001-04:00

Second Step:

Inhale and imagine breathing in growing taller energy from the universe into your chest. Then the energy is absorbed into the bright ball.

Explanation:

On the first step, we just expose ourselves to the universe as a bright ball and absorb energy from all directions. Now in this step, we are absorbing energy through our breath. The breath should be slow and deep. At first, you may feel too hard to do, but pay attention to each breath and gradually you will be used to the slow breathing mood and you will find out that your body actually like is style of breath more.

When we open our eyes, we always look outside. Our energy is scattered. So when you inhale and imagine breathing in energy, you are doing something completely opposite to what we normally do. When you imagine the growing taller energy absorbed into your bright ball through inhaling, the ball become the source of your energy.

So when you need this energy to work on something, you just need release it. Since the energy comes from the universe, it is endless and powerful. Can we say this is Tao?

“The Tao is infinite, eternal.
Why is it eternal?
It was never born;
thus it can never die.
Why is it infinite?
It has no desires for itself;
thus it is present for all beings.”

Explanations on the 4 Steps -- first Step

2006-09-11T03:06:00.001-04:00

Dear friends, I do not have enough time to write in the last few days, here is the explanation to the first step. I will put the rest here soon.

//////////////////////

Even though I keep a part of no. 3 to those who enroll into my program, you can practice just follow what I put in the blog. If you realize what I mean, then you can go further to ask me the rest part. It is not because I try to be sneaky, but I want you to think more before you make a decision to study with me.

The following is my detailed explanation of the methods.

First Step:

Lie on your back. Put your hands together in front of your chest. Imagine a bright ball hanging inside your chest absorbing energy from the universe, especially the growing taller energy. (You may think there is a growing taller god next to you helping your growth in the whole practice.)

Explanation:

Because lying on the bed is the most relaxed position for your body, your body can respond to you with the most relaxed way. Also it won’t take your work or study time. But if you feel more comfortable you can sit on the bed or lie on your side. When you practice more, you will notice that your Qi moves from your forehead to the back head and back in the middle line. So sit and lie on the side should be better, but lying on the back gives your legs and body a better pose to extend.Lie your head on either left or right side, so you will find that your Qi can move freely around your head central line.

To put hands in front of your chest is to strength the idea of gathering the universal energy into one point of your body. In Taoism, it emphasizes the idea of “guarding the One”. (Scholarly you can read some articles by professor Livia Kohn from Boston University http://daoiststudies.org/bibliography.php?ofield=Author&begin=1000 and Taoist Meditation by French scholar Isabelle Robinet and more of her books http://daoiststudies.org/bibliography.php?ofield=Author&begin=1800 ). It is an imagination at first, but from your focus, your body is going to change from chaos (as you normally know various parts, systems, etc) into one clear unity connecting the universe inside out. Usually it is said men should focus on the part inside the bellybutton and women inside chest. I do not think it is very necessary. You should find a place most comfortable for you inside your body, and that is the right place. I found the chest area is the best place to start.

Through long time practice, you will see the light inside, usually the light is from your forehead (but it lasts various), and the universe becomes clear to you during the practice. You are linked to the whole universe instead of a single unrelated person. Through long practice of guarding the bright one, you increase your inner power Qi. Then when your mind wants to have something down, your Qi will respond right away, namely to grow your body for us.

Although this is just a beginning of the practice, do not glance it away. I have already touched the very important part of the practice. In order to grow taller in a quicker time, you should practice focusing on a spot inside your body whenever you have time, or have conscience to do so at any moment.

A growing taller god is another way to assist your practice, especially for those having spiritual belief. If you believe in Jesus Christ, you can take him as the growing taller god, or Buddha, or some minor deity, or some of your past favorite ancestor, or someone alive you think who can give you the utmost support. This will relief some of your pressure while practicing by knowing that you are not alone.

You need quite many times before you feel their existence. When you experience them with you, do not have any excitement, or panic. Calmly accept them with you. You will know that this world is not just this world and you will change and grow taller because you see more reasons.

Belief and Practice

2006-09-11T03:04:00.000-04:00

If I tell you that you will be exactly one year older on this day next year, you should not have problem to admit it at all. Then if I tell you that you can grow 3 inches taller on this day next year, should you have some doubts? Yes, why? It is because you can not see the rational connection between time and your height. Here is where I am. I will tell you how you can make the connection possible.

When I was in China in the first day Qigong class, one of the most popular practices was that the teacher would ask the students to straight their hands and put their fingers together, then think about their right hand index growing longer. In about 5 minutes, the teacher asked the students to check their two indexes, almost all of us would find out that the right index was much longer than the left one. What the Qigong teacher wanted to prove was that our thinking can change our physical shape, therefore those who were sick can be cured by their mind. One of my roommates told me she asked her advisor, who was over 60 year old man, to do so, his finger extended as well. From which, I believed that I can grow taller if I thought about my own body growing taller by the same mechanism.

Then why I did not grow taller before and many other people do not succeed? It is because even though we have seen so many evidences, we still have doubts to believe what can happen and we therefore do not practice what we should do continuously. I thought I should accumulate my Qi (inner energy) strongly before to push myself taller. I spent many years to practice many other methods before concentrating on my height. Time proved that I was wrong, I could start from the beginning if I believed myself fully.

Now, once you want to grow taller, you should have no doubt to believe you will. That is it! No doubt. No doubt in mind. The rest of the work is to work it out by daily practice, the most important thing is to accumulate your Qi, with full confidence and positive light attitude. From my method is you should spend more time imaging the light ball inside your chest gathering the energy of the universe (explain this later).

It is just that simple and you will make it truth as I did.

How You Will Feel in One Year Practice

2006-09-08T00:11:00.001-04:00

I had stopped growing for at least 5 years before I practiced, so my extra 4 inches is for sure from my own effort. When I practiced, usually I thought about extending my legs along, but once or twice of a week, I would think about extending my arms and neck, and also think my body extending from the light ball to all directions once for a while just for the variety. The point is once you understand the theory you body will follow you. So I grow taller very proportionally. My feet are about half size larger from 6 1/2 to 7 (sometimes 7 1/2 according to different shoes style). My hands are about 1/4 inches bigger than before. I wear the same size of pants, but do not need cut the edges anymore.

I have to point out that I spent too many years before started the growing practice. I just wanted to make sure I had enough power to do so and sifted all of the Qigong methods existing there to my usage. So maybe you are not so sensitive as how it happened to me at first place. But I had been always one of the most insensitive students in Qigong classes, so as long as you stick to my method you will work it out.

To be concrete, it was my new year resolution in 2003, I finally made the commitment to myself that I will devote the whole year to my method I designed. It worked very well. I marked my height every weekend on a wall. I am a hot temper girl, but with many years meditation training, I learned to hold my curiosity. Only each weekend did I check once. I saw the line above the previous weekend. At the first half a year, the jump was clear and almost evenly. From the later summer on, I noticed my height increased quicker. In the fall and winter I grow almost 2 inches. Then I kept on practicing and my height increase another inch in 3 months. Originally I thought I would be extremely happy if I reached 5f 3 and my ideal height was 5f 4. I drew the two lines on the wall on the first day of my practice. After I reached it, I thought I should practice more energy increasing methods. So I stopped growing Qigong and changed to other practices. But still I practice the same method occasionally in order to consolidate my height. Maybe I should practice again since the height requirement for a girl in the United Stated is much taller than the one in China.

The following was my experience and I believe more or less you will encounter them. The most important thing is whatever happens when you practice, including sudden growing feeling, seeing inside lights, feeling inner energy moving, or no feelings at all, ect, you should not be surprised and still stick to my simple 4 steps. It is your body and energy responding to your mind, your mind should completely focus on growing taller target.

Headache: It mainly because you breath too fast and gathered too much Qi in your brain. Focus on the light ball for a while till you feel the energy moving down.

Emptiness: After a while practice, you may feel there is no happening. You could not imagine anything, there is nothing responding in your body. Focus on your breath. Imagine each breath sending energy to your legs and extending your legs far away in the darkness. Look around with eyes closed, you can see the endless darkness, this is the real realm of the universe and you are welcomed to express yourself, it will let you wish true.

Sudden growth: With vivid imagination, well practice, your mind is light and happy, you feel your energy moving inside your body. Then suddenly your legs move forward as if your feet walk forward. Do Not Be Surprised, it is natural and keep on doing what you are doing. You do not want to be distracted by the temporary result. You need focus on your practice in order to reach the final result.

To practice Qigong on your own is a lonely journey. Fortunately, we have internet, we can find people in the same interest much easier. But still when you practice, it is your work, you have to do it till you finish alone, no body else can help you. This lonely work is not unpleasant however, you will find that you are closer to the bottom of the universe in the darkness, and the universe will open its door to you at last.

The Thoughts Behind My Method

2006-09-08T00:08:00.000-04:00

I do not want to make my method too obscure and mysterious since most of you know little about China, much less about Taoism or Buddhism, or Qigong.

The central theme of Taoism is to “CHANGE”. Its all practice is to become immortal on this world. Before reaching the ultimate goal, a Taoist practices his Way to change his appearance, body shape at first. You will find enormous texts on how to become healthy, good looking, powerful, and even on how to have right sex in order to prolong life.

In Buddhism, even though this is a religion to believe heaven after death, it believes EVERYTHING COMES FROM THE MIND. It requires believers to have body, mind, and words or language to work together, that means, your mind guides what you say and what you do. From which they have many explanations to this world and other worlds in the universe. Regardless how complicated they say, one thing we should know is we can change our body by having right mind. When the mind is right, the body will listen to the mind and changed accordingly.

Qigong is a modern Chinese health practice starting popular in early 80s and became quiet when the government banned Falungong practice in 1999. But this modern practice is originated from Taoism and Buddhism. The practice emphases on curing diseases and on enhancing people’s wisdom. A lot of people claim developing special skills after practicing Qigong. Qigong is not just one way of practice, in fact, there are countless Qigong groups coming into being. (I have studied three kinds, and stayed one Qigong school studying meditation for 2 months.) Because Chinese government does not encourage religion’s existence, people call many practices existing in religions Qi (energy) Gong (practice or effort). Once you practice one Qigong, sooner or later you will feel Qi circulating in your body. This is all we talk about: we will use our mind to manipulate the Qi to reach our own target, namely, grow taller.

If you think what I say is ridiculous or hard to believe, I can understand. Do not say no to things you do not know at first. If you have interest, follow me, and you will understand what I mean. If you understand what I mean, you should right away take action. As Lao Tse said,

The wise student hears of the Tao and practices it diligently.
The average student hears of the Tao and gives it thought now and again.
The foolish student hears of the Tao and laughs aloud.
If there were no laughter, the Tao would not be what it is.

(Note: the quote is from http://www.iging.com/laotse/LaotseE.htm)

My Brief Growing History

2006-09-07T14:26:00.000-04:00

I clearly know the difference between my way and hypnosis, that is, I know how to design what I want and hypnosis is passively for the receiver to accept what the hypnotist says without background knowledge of why that should be. I do like in fact the theory of hypnosis and I think my method has an element of hypnosis and is above hypnosis. How I got my method was through many years self-search story and I will explain my theory in another article soon.

When I was 12 years old in 1993, Qigong, a breathing practice, was still quite popular in China. My mom actually went to study one kind of Qigong with her company’s financial support hoping her to teach those who wanted to learn from her in the company. At that time I noticed that my classmates were getting taller than me and I just grew bigger horizontally. My mom is 4’11 and my dad is about 5’6. I realized that I needed do something quickly, otherwise my other shorter classmates will catch up because they had much taller parents than mine.

My parents did not have a good relationship. They quarreled a lot and many times my mom left home for days without knowing where she went. This kind of environment I believe also prevented me from growing taller. I was a depressed girl with height at the time about 4’10. I searched around and bought some Chinese acupuncture equipment which claimed to help me grow, it did not work and left several pieces of tiny scars on my legs. I used a Chinese medicine made from a hospital, I probably grew about 1 inch. But it was too costly and I was not sure whether I grew that inch from the medicine or just my own growth since I was about 14.

One day in middle school, I read a book called Dao De Jing (The Book of the Way), A Taoism classic. Suddenly from reading this 5000 Chinese character book, I realized that I could change myself by my own power. Since Qigong is from Taoism and Buddhism, my mom could teach me something. When my mom came back home from work, I asked her to make me grow taller by her Qigong power. She was actually happy to do so. I stood next to the door and she gave me orders on how to think and how to breathe. I had a good experience on doing so and I asked my mom to take me to see the masters with stronger Qi (energy) in the company. My mom took me to the stadium where there was a room called “Qigong Cure”. She asked the old man there to make me grow taller. He also did it. But I was very nervous and shy to let people know that I was short and wanted to grow taller. So I did not ask my mom either to see the old man or to have her to help me to grow taller anymore. I decided to do it myself. I thought all because I did not have enough Qi, I could not make what I want into reality. From around 13 years old to 21, I had involved into various Qigong groups. I never told anyone of those people that my purpose was to grow taller. Instead I followed Qigong teachers to practice Qigong and I put all of my effort to read old Chinese Taoist texts and a fewer Buddhist texts in order to confirm I can grow taller by my mind.

Through all of these years, with countless stories happening behind and many sleepless nights practicing Qigong on my bed, I finally believed myself an ugly duckling to be able to become a swan with my strong inner strength. When I was 22, I felt fully understanding what Qi was. So I designed my own growing taller method and made the miracle happen in a year. Once I set up my mind, I became very strict to my practice. I could feel my legs actually moving forward, my body became hollow inside and extended far away... I grew 3 inches in a year practice and another inch after a year because of the trend. Now I have no worries on my height and have new goals in my life, but what I experienced was so dramatic that I do not have time to write down 10 percent here for you, well, after all, what we care is how to make you grow taller.

Probably some of you think you may not have such clear effect as mine since you never practice Qigong before. I have taken all of those efforts to do the pre-work, I will lead you to go through all of those difficulties in a much quicker time. As long as you have confidence and diligently practice, you will grow taller more or less soon with me.

My Growing Taller Method

2006-08-26T22:04:00.001-04:00

The method is very simple:

1. Lie on your back. Put your hands together in front of your chest. Imagine a bright ball hanging inside your chest absorbing energy from the universe. (You may think there is a growing taller god next to you helping your growth in the whole practice.)

2. Inhale and imagine breathing in growing taller energy from the universe into your chest. Then the energy is absorbed into the bright ball.

3. Exhale and imagine spreading the energy into your body inside. You can imagine spreading the energy just to legs or from chest to all directions. During most of the time I imagine the first kind.

4. In the end, use 5 to 10 minutes to imagine your body is extended and the present condition is perfectly preserved inside your chest as a bright ball. (Thank the growing taller god and ask the god to come back to help you again next time when you practice.)

Note:

The whole process should be calm and slow.

Set a time and an alarm, half an hour after go to bed at night and also half an hour before get up in the morning.

Set a year plan to practice the method and decide how tall you want to grow at first. You should have a good habit to make a record on your notebook to make sure you indeed practice every day.

Think of your body simply as a physical manifestation of your mind. Believe yourself and you will become the one you want.

Please use as many methods as possible. I found mine through many choices, but it is the most efficient for me. If you want to come along with me, please feel like you are going to enter a cult: a growing taller cult. From now on, you are going to commit half an hour before you get up in the morning and half an hour after you go to sleep to practice the rite.

Grow taller with me

2006-08-18T02:07:00.000-04:00

I am a 25 years old Chinese girl now living in the United States. To grow taller has been the major element for me to choose what to study since I was 12 years old. At the time, I realized my parents were short and I wound not probably grow taller naturally. Since modern medicine did not really work on me after many failures, I decided to use traditional mystical methods. I have studied Buddhism and Taoism. I also went to many meditation schools in order to find ways to grow taller.

Finally, I designed a simple growing taller practice in January 2003 when I was 22. I grow 3 inches in a year from 5 feet to 5 feet 3 inches. Now I am in my ideal height 5 feet 4 inches and am still practicing since the benefit is beyond just growing taller. One obvious thing is I have perfect skin.

No matter how old you are, measure your height, then follow my simple and unique way of breath for half an hour, then measure your height again. I will prove you that you will grow taller a little bit in this half an hour.
