Everyone knows that you 'look up to' tall people and 'look down on' short ones.
So it's no surprise why girls choose to put on high heels, why special stretching exercises are used by many to gain a few more inches of height, or why others change their diets for the same reason.
But what kind of benefit is there, being just a bit higher? Is it a mental or maybe psychological thing? Could be! We don't necessarily have to be tall, as much as feel tall.
This is why many times at restaurants and bars you don't see people sitting on chairs but rather their choice is the bar stool.
Tall, lofty, bar stool.
With an average chair height of 18inches (46cm) for a dining room chair, an extra tall bar stool is twice as tall at 36inches (91.
5cm).
Which is why, as our homes are becoming bars and restaurants for out friends and families, it's no surprise that bar stools are becoming a more popular choice.
It just feels better to eat, talk or get some paper work done, while situated on such a high position.
Just imagine having your friends over for dinner, having a meal in such an elevated scenario.
Your friends will feel like royalty because you won't have to condescend; to serve them, they will already be up high.
Discussions will be lively, as no one will physically, feel low.
And we all know that when you feel exalted, you feel that much freer to express yourself.
In ancient times kings would make important decisions from their thrones.
The comfort from that imposing height helped to make things clear, so that a decisive action could be taken.
Similarly today, whether it's making a decision to buy a new car or home, or just finishing up some homework, being higher off the ground can help you to see the bigger picture.
Do you see the benefits? Food tastes better, expressing yourself comes easier and your thinking faculties are clearer.
Whether it is a mental or psychological thing, we don't choose to be born a certain height, but we do have a choice to feel tall.
Shoes, stretching, pills; in many aspects of our life we can choose to feel higher.
Just don't forget that our choice of chairs can also be an elevated one.
