How do we live in alignment with our purpose?

All universe is energy in motion. Your life energy and your physical body are forms of energy. How do you relate to it?

The entire universe and everything in creation is energy that vibrates at different frequencies. In every living being, energy flows through the body in meridians (energy pathways) and in chakras (energy centers), not only from physical nourishment. In Eastern cultures, Chi (also referred to as Ki or Qi) is a universal energy that flows through everything in creation. It is a balance of positive and negative, Yin and Yang, and it can perhaps be described as a form of bio-electromagnetic energy, as a form of light energy, or as an electromagnetic phenomenon.

Western science doesn’t acknowledge the existence of the invisible life energy that is believed to flow through all things. The ancient masters speak of Chi as a type of fluidic energy that is regulated by mental intention and controlled breathing. A way to detect it has not been found yet. Still, millions of Qigong, tai chi, yoga, and meditation practitioners across the globe are able to regulate their energy circulation through their bodies and minds to manage their health.

The Life-Giving Energy of Chi

The mind-body cultivators discovered the existence of life-giving energy in the ancient past. They believed that this energy fills the entire universe and that humans live immersed in it, just like fish in water. Chi flows through our being (bodies and minds), providing us the perceptiveness and energy to feel deeply, think clearly, and act decisively. Chi is just another dimension or aspect of our existence and life, a natural part of us. Chi or Ki or Qi is something we need to connect with, which must be as natural as breathing.

Let’s take a look at how Chi is explained in practices such as Qigong (a mind-body-spirit practice that improves physical and mental health) and Eastern medicine.

Chi and Qigong

Qigong is an ancient Chinese healing and exercise technique that involves movement exercises, controlled breathing, and meditation. The “qi” in “Qigong” carries the same meaning as “ki” or “chi” – the concept of energy, breath, spirit, or information. The “gong” means mastery or cultivation, so Qigong is often translated as mastery of your energy or vital energy cultivation. Qigong comes in various forms that are practiced across the world, some of them involving meditation and breathing to promote health and spirituality, while others include martial arts and are more vigorous. Some consider tai chi to be a form of Qigong because it moves, cultivates, and helps manage the qi.

There is energetic, spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical work to be done in order to become energetically vitalized, spiritually aligned, mental
