What is Qi (Ki) energy, and how do you use it in Dahn Yoga?
Jan 01, 00
"Qi" (Ki) is the Korean word for "cosmic energy," or "life force." It is also known as "Chi." Qi-energy (Ki-energy) is the connection between the physical body and the conscious mind. When practitioners learn to feel and control the Qi-energy (Ki-energy) in their boies, a deeper level of connection is made between body and mind, resulting in deep relaxation, a more peaceful mind and greater control over the body.
In the Orient, people have understood this energy and have used it in various fields such as Oriental medicine, the arts, politics and culture for thousands of years. Recently, much scientific research has been conducted to understand this life force energy. Dahn Yoga systematically teaches awareness of Qi-energy (Ki-energy) and how to integrate it into daily life.
