 Find your Ki
The word Ki (also spelled chi or qi) translates to energy, life force, spirit and breath. It is energy that connects all things—a mediator between mind and body—and is without limits. For those who believe in it, it is an inner energy that we all have. For those who don’t believe, it is a myth.
However, through Ki exercises, Ki breathing and Ki meditating, Ki can be developed. The following breathing and posture exercises can help you get started.
Breathe in through your nose. Inhale deeply. Then release the air with an “hhhhaaaaaaa” sound. Practice this breathing for a few minutes each day.
Lie flat on the floor, with you arms at your side and feet about shoulder width apart. Relax. Allow gravity to help you feel heavy. Slowly stand up. Stand in the same position you were laying in—this is your ideal posture. Let it happen naturally. Do not force it. This exercise will help you get comfortable with knowing your best posture and your body will correct itself automatically. Remain in this standing position for a moment. Repeat the exercise several times.
Ki practitioners link their mind and body through various training methods by using mental focus, relaxation and posture. You, too, can use these methods to become more aware of the internal processes within your body. The more skilled you become, the more you will experience a life without limits.
