Noriko's Corner - Food, Energy and 氣

I have thought deeply about the relationship between Food and Energy, I have decided that they are the same thing, two halves sharing the same whole, which is 氣 or "vital lifeforce".

氣 (Ki/Qi/Chi) is energy and translates to "Breath" in English, without breath, we die.

氣 (Xi) in old Chinese also translates to "to present food" in English, without food, we die.

​

So obviously, good breathing and good food means a good life!

I teach different breathing techinques in my yoga classes, so please think about joining sometime in the future. For more information please use the form below to make contact.
