The Greeks used to yell and curse at their basil plants while ripping and tearing bits off. The believed it helped the plant grow. But yeah ripping leaves off frequently makes it grow faster and bigger

If it is store bought try separating the plant, usually general stores pack the roots too close together

Try to propagate a few stems, a good reset for the plant that’s adapted to your environment
