LifeStand Compact has centralized functions for moving and standing with reclinable backrest and speed control. The angle of armrest is constant so you will always be comfortable even if you change backrest slant. This is essential for tray table use. The contoured tibia support has a pad that’s anti decubitus. For excellent stability, chassis was designed in a U form. You can use a 2- or 4- battery set. You can maneuver hand control that is fixed on a swing away. It has variable range anti-tip wheels to clear obstacles when you’re seated and will prevent you from tipping over in upright mode. You can also recline backrest electronically. The central safety lock can be easily seen because of its red button. Stand-up wheelchairs are very useful because it allows you to move freely, unlike other wheelchairs that limits your quality of life just because you cannot stand with it.

Using these practices on a daily basis can give us a good platform for strengthening our immune systems. A word of caution, be very mindful when performing this Pranayama (Yoga Breathing Exercise), and return to normal breathing if you feel light-headed, dizzy, or faint. Remember we only need basic breath control here, if you think Pranayama can bring you more benefits then look for one of many good books available or better still join a class. Posture: There are several postures recommended for Pranayama breathing exercises, most include type of sitting with crossed legs that can be seen in many books or TV programs. Not many people have time to spend learning how to achieve these postures, although they can prove beneficial. But to start your basic breathing exercise there is only one rule, 'NO slouching'. If you prefer to sit, keep a straight back, this will allow for free passage of air between throat, lungs and abdomen. Keeping a straight back will also keep your mind more alert. Although you can lie down if necessary, it is more difficult to do deep breathing while on your back, initially anyway. If you wish to learn about other postures recommended, there are many good books available on Hatha Yoga. Breathing: Unless stated all inhalations and exhalations should be through your nostrils, this allows body greater control over respiration. Belly Breathing: To do yoga belly breathing properly you should allow your lungs to fill from bottom up, this will assure you of maximum air penetration and absorption. The lungs lay just behind rib cage and are attached to ribs, they are therefore pulled open and closed by them. If you are breathing only with top half of chest, top of your lungs will open first so that air fills them only up at very top. If on other hand you push your belly out as you inhale you will expand your diaphragm first. The lower ribs will then push out and open lower portion of lung first. The air will then rush down into them to fill vacuum there and so fills your whole lung chamber from bottom to top. When you exhale, you are in effect reversing process, by pulling belly in at end of exhalation. This last movement pushes air complexly out of lower portion of your lungs and so pushes all toxins of used air out of your lungs. Don't worry if takes you a little time to practice and feel right when using this breathing method. Re-Cap. Deeper, steady breathing can increase amount of oxygen body can use to burn out disease. The use of Pranayama increase amount of 'chi' body can use, for health and spiritual matters. 'Chi' can be used by Inner and Higher-Self to help manifest your desires. Start to breathe deeper when relaxing during day and see what a difference it can make to how you feel.
