Qi
Literally meaning "vital air" or "vital breath," qi is a Chinese term for vital energy or life force. In traditional Chinese medicine, qi (pronounced "chee") is believed to regulate a person's spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical balance, and to be influenced by the opposing forces of yin and yang. It also refers to the oxygenation of vital organs, which is required for optimal function.
