======ZIXIA�S STORY==========
Courtesy of http://zixialinmm.blogspot.com
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. I release almost the
whole method to you except the most important part inside no.3 since I realize it
is never being too much to stress that is. 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.
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.
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.)
**** 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.

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.
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.
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.

Infelizmente eu n�o lembro nada do que li no blog da zixia, eu apenas lembro que
era muito grande e havia muita informa��o al�m do que est� ai em cima. Mas por
sorte achei uma grande discuss�o da Zixia em outro f�rum, vou deixar aqui apenas os
posts dela, pois tem muita coisa �til aqui. A conversa foi em setembro de 2006.
>>
Ok, if you guys read what I wrote before, you would have got my method completely
and practice it for free. But you call me many bad names...
I will put all of my knowledge on my blog for free for your guys to read. What I
charge is to respond to individual letters for a year,and I predict it is a lot.
Do you call Dr. Laura De Giorgio a scammer? I bought her tapes a few years ago to
see how hypnosis did the work. Her tapes were noisy and what she said only reached
the beginning of my method on no.6. And she did not even tell you how to use her
tapes, no personal support...
Does not matter what you say, I am real and I will do what I think is right. I do
not have all day long sitting in front of my computer to write on my blog, but
gradually I will put more and more there for you to read. Everyone can grow taller,
just like all people get shorter when they are old. You should practice whatever
you know to get yourself taller before that hits you again.
My academic background is solid, so if you have any discussion on Taoism, write to
me, I will respond you historically and scripturally.
>>
When Lao Zi said ?wuwei? (no action), he meant two things: things in this world
have their own rules (Tao), there is no need for us to take actions in order to
make things right. Politically, rulers also should know society has its own rules,
so they should not intervene people?s life.
However, however, no action does not mean we do not do anything at all (otherwise,
a paralyzed person is the best), it means we have to master the Tao in order to
understand nature, people, the society, then we know how to take actions. When the
world in their right order, we do not need take actions then. If the world is in
chaos, that means we made wrong actions, definitely we have to find out what is
wrong and correct it.
The later Taoist religion fully developed many many methods to train a Taoist to
understand Tao for their purposes. No action is just an appearance when you see a
Taoist, he is diligently practicing the method his master teaches him interiorly.
If you say wuwei simply explained as ?no action? is the center of Taoism, then we
have to ignore the Taoist Canon, where you can find all actions.
You brought a good question, reminding me what I thought when I read Daode Jing the
first time. I thought suddenly that I could grow taller. Since everything had its
Tao, I can do anything I want in this world, nothing can stop me as long as I found
its Tao. Tao can guide me to my goal, myself do not need do anything exteriorly
eventually. That Tao is Qi (engergy) with guidance of my mind.
>>
Sorry missed your question.
I am not sure what HI is. Height increase?
If you say "standing meditation", it should be "zhanzhuang". Zhanzhuang is a way of
practice Qigong. It exists in almost all kinds of Qigong practices, such as Hexiang
(Crane-fly) Qigong, Xiang (Fragrant) Qigong, Yan Xin Qigong, Zhang Hongbao Qigong,
and Falun Gong, etc.
Either standing, sitting, or laying down, practice Qigong (in fact it is another
name of meditation) is not fixed on one poise. Multi-way of practices can achieve
the best result. But each poise has its own advantages than the others. Standing
way is the closest to physical excises, so it relaxes your body and helps the blood
circulation. Laying down is for those who practice at night when our body is in the
mood to sleep and our mind is in the most quite and alert state. Sitting is in the
between. I will mention this point in my explanation of my method soon.
>>
What is intuition and what is rational? When we think we are thinking rationally is
because we see some reason causes something else happening many times, so we then
can predict something will happen when we see the same cause happens (Since you are
so smart, you should know which of your Western philosopher started the theory).
The reason we call something happens by intuition because we do not see the link
between the cause and result. When you do not see where Tao comes, you do not see
where it goes. Once you see?
It is so laughable that you accused me trying to earn money. Anyway, I have decided
not to write on this board anymore. For my own privacy, I won?t post my photos and
background on my blog at this early stage, but when I feel time is ripe, I will do
so.
I love my blog, it brings a lot of good memories and efforts I have made in my life
and I will put as much stuff there as possible for those who have interest to read.
Excuse me you guys if you see me putting my blog link in other boards, I want to
share my life with comrades.
>>
I am back for the saying ?There are more than meets the eye?.
You just gave me your arbitrary conclusion with no further explanation. What is the
?laws of nature? from the Taiji master that you understand so well? How absurd is
it to you about my explanation? If Qi can push outer thing away without seen the
Qi, why you can not understand it can perform inside? Have you ever practiced
Qigong? Have you ever felt the move of your Qi? Have you ever sit in a class to
listen to a Qigong teacher?s explanation?
Since you know something about Taoism, how many Taoists have your visited? How many
mountains have you climbed in China? How many temples have your done research on?
How many scriptures have you read? Why did Zhang Daoling start his Five Bushel Rice
Taoist Sect? What happened to him? Why East Jin was full of Taoist pursuers? Why
did Buddhism and Taoism have some many arguments and agreements? Why did Tang
respect Taoism? Why did Quanzhen sect become so popular? How did Taoist Canon
become into being? What is the central theme of Taoism? Taoism is abstract theories
or it does care our normal people?s daily life and ultimate concern. Furthermore,
why did Taoist scriptures full of discussion on the connection between our inner
body and exterior world? What is the function of Sun and Moon to Taoist? What is
the function of meditation in Taoism? What things Taoists claimed they can do in
the scriptures?
How did I loose my credibility? Give me your explanation on what rational thinking
and intuition is.
I just start spreading my story, and came across your board. I am not a fan or iron
member of your board. I do not see anything wrong that I charge some for those who
want to get my personal training. I will spend time and use what I have learned to
guide people through their difficulties. I am not a fairy yet, you may now some
economic rules. Oh, you are a Kyokushinkai-Karate, why don?t you send it to me
since you are so generous.
>>
In order to achieve anything valuable, you have to put effort on. But with better
method, focus, personal willingness, the path can be quicker. A right teacher is
important, that is my role for those who want to grow taller with my method, I can
find out what the pitfalls they are in on time.
"intuition it is a kind of knowing without a rational explanation,it comes from a
far deeper level of your mind,it can manifest itself in a lot of ways,for instance
it can give you a presentiment about dangerous situations", you did not even
explain what is called rational explanation, no a clear logic mind to see here. I
could easily explain why you felt like that by my explanation.
You can either say Taoism or Daoism, there is no Taoism and Daoism. And you can not
explain all of my questions in another thread since I wrote quite a few thesis on
some of the questions.
After all I learned those ancient, modern practices, theories in order to find out
a solution for myself: how to grow taller. I found it and that is it.
I mean your black belt, hohoho
>>
including Pepe, your questions are so silly since I answered them in my blog if you
read. Well, except one, my friends commented my height a lot, especially my
classmates in middle and high school. My parents were amazed by me. Some of my
friends asked me how I did it, which was one of the reasons I finally thought to
open a blog.
The reason I charge is so clear and I do not know why you people here are so fussy
about it. How many people do you think I can guide in a year? If I have too many
people come to ask me, I will raise the fee in fact.
Finally, I have no secret. I am gradually explain everything on my blog for you for
free. The only little bit left is for those who want to further study with me. I
put that part here in the past, what happened then? I need respect my own work at
least a little bit.
I believe there are many ways to grow taller, mine is just one of many and you
should again use as many as you can in order to get the result.
My method is not just for growing taller, if you keep on practicing, you will find
this is a threshold for you to open the door to see the world you have never
experienced. I will explain this in my blog later of course.
>>
I have been busy and no time to check this board in the last few days. I admit that
I should not include you in those asking "silly questions".
Q. "Is it possible to grow any with what you've posted on your blog already?"
A. It has been proven again and again in Qigong class I studied, age was not a
problem to
have one's finger to grow longer in a few mintues. So I conclude people can grow
taller, effort, time, and determination are the matter.
Q."If so, what sort of time frame (period) for this growth could people expect?"
A. You are right, my background is different from those with no knowledge about
Qigong. But I still believe one year is a good time frame. People's nature is
different, some can grow faster than others, and the background is not that
important. I will explain this in my blog later.
Q. "What finally 'clicked' when you were 22 after many years of practising Qi Gong
etc, and why do you think it took so long to get to that point?"
A. I graduated from college in 2002 and moved to another city. I felt everything
was fresh and I need a real life in the new year.
Q."How can you be confident it will work for others? Have you tried your method
with anyone else you know?"
A. To be simple, the confident is from the idea that human beings are guided by our
mind, only because our mind is fixed, our body is fixed. Once our mind changes, our
body will follow. I have not tried with anyone else completely.
I am posting my method on my blog, anyone can try it from reading it. There is no
coincidence, I see the cause and effect.
BTW, ed81 claimed himself as practioner of Zen and know I easily can be the victim
of illusions created by my own mind. First of all, I like to hear how Zen Buddhism
defines what illusion is. Then you will find out what I have said does not fit that
catogory. And I do not like you to label me as being in illusion by guessing what I
may say or think.
>>
First of all, if you check carefully either Zen Buddhism, Pure Land Buddhism,
Huayan Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism. To have a clear definition on what your are
talking about is one of the most important things in each religion or philosophy.
Otherwise, we can not continue our conversation since we may talk about different
things even though we use the same term. Of course the definition is not the way we
usually use as after Industrial Revolution time.
Second, what you said what illusion quite different from Zen Buddhism, you may see
here:
Bonno (Japanese) desires, illusion; mental functions which trouble the mind,
passions, false views. "Desires are natural; they become bonno when there is
attachment." (Deshimaru, Questions to a Zen Master). "Desire itself is natural and
is harmful or misleading only when we cling to or resist it." (Deshimaru, The Zen
Way to the Martial Arts). (You can keep on reading more, and more terms here, hehe
http://www.yakrider.com/Buddha/Zen/zen_terms.htm)
For our agreement, here is more to read for you if you have not read what illusion
is in Zen. http://sped2work.tripod.com/AllThingsZen.html
(Well, I am not a total web girl. I can give you a booklist on Zen Buddhism if you
need.)
Illusion and Tao have something similar that is Tao is everywhere, therefore you
can actually find it and do what you want, on the other hand, we are in illusion
therefore once we find the causation we can make the difference.
I am not that rational and do not need you to explain every term. But what you said
does not have solid ground, and most likely is from your assumed Zen thinking.
Second, since you can not judge my inner state of mind, I suspect you can say that
I may be in illusion. Especially I said that my method is a threshold for more
things to find out. I have not written on this point yet.
Either getting taller by my method or not is not guaranteed to everyone, but I see
the potential to everyone. That is why I am writing more on my blog for you to
judge.
>>
d81, finger growing is true and only when you were there in class, could you be
quietly accept it, it was just so easy. Unlike people here looking for HI, most
people I encounter do not care their height in Qigong class, they want to become
healthier, smarter, or more spiritual. I don't really know what they want, but to
have one's finger grow is definitely something piece of cake for the beginners. Ask
someone who was in Qigong class in China before. My words are surely not enough.
But I certainly got my confidence from the experience that I could grow taller with
the same idea then.
Also ed, let's look at your answers to me.
You said: I may be in illusion from your Zen practitioner's perspective.
I said: No, I am not, since Zen's idea of illusion does not fit me, namely, I am
not attached to my
height problem. Illusion is not something bad or good to Zen as you know.
Then you said: What awareness is.
What you mentioned is one of Zen schools, sudden awareness. And the other one is
gradual
awareness. Anyway, that was not my question. You did not answer my question: what
is illusion? I answered it by Zen?s own words. Zen is heavily related to
meditation, but it does not mean we can not clarify what we are doing by words,
even though most time the words do not have rational connections. Otherwise, they
really should toss their scriptures completely.
I sincerely worry about your moral stand, how to hack a computer is not something I
would be proud to tell others.
Am I a tall girl now, btw ? huhuhu
>>
We tried an index finger, sometimes later the whole right hand fingers. No tapes,
but it was so clear that our right hand fingers much longer than the left ones. I
was actually scared at the time that my fingers would stay longer than the left
side, but they turned to be the same. Without long period of practice, the sudden
change will not be stable.
Yes, it is true that it is hardly to believe that all people had their fingers
extended in a few minutes without age difference. All I remember that people around
me all made it.
With the same idea that we could grow taller in a few minutes, but through my own
practice, it was much harder than we thought. But the other reason is, from Qigong
point of view, where you practice it. When you are in a class with a lot of people
with the same idea, the effect is much quicker since we have a very harmonious
atmosphere and the Qi is strong. If home alone, we do not get the effect so easy.
There was a Qigong school teaching people how to grow taller when I was in China
around 1998. I read an article saying that the school was full of short people
wishing to grow a few centimeters, and the effect sounded quite good. I wanted to
go there so much. But I did not have time and could not afford like half a year?s
fee at the time. I bought their materials, a lot of physical stretches with mind
guidance.
As I said, Qigong was not something in China to make people grow taller. It was
introduced to let people be aware of their own mental power for health, wisdom.
Unlike people here all concern about your height. In a Qigong class, children
wanted to be smarter, middle age people wanted to be healthier, relaxed, senior
people wanted to be away from illness. And a lot of people had their super
spiritual experience.
If you were in China, you would know how stressful in high school in order to pass
the college entrance exams. I had some free time in college, but spent a lot
studying with different Qigong teachers. I was so interested in the whole system of
Qigong and spent a lot of time reading as well. Since I believed age was not a
problem, I was not in a hurry to increase my height then. And I was so tired at
night with full schedule during the day that I went to sleep right away?xixixi
Read the first 37 chapters of Daodejing, not many words, I do not have time to
point each word for you. While reading with growing taller method in you mind, you
may find something interesting. I can highlight words for you later if you still
want to. Too late tonight.
You are right, I did not explain my two steps clearly. The first step is to imagine
the bright ball absorbing the energy from the universe. The second step is in a
narrower and concrete way: to inhale energy to the ball. The path is more specific.
I should point this out.
Well, you can still find a lot information from the daoiststudies website as a
beginner.
