Qigong refers to a large number of methods aimed at working on our vital energy. 氣 Qi can be translated by "energy flow" or "vital energy". The literal translation is "air," "breath," or "gas"
Chakras or Cakras
From Sanskrit cakra (disc, circle, wheel); in Chinese, 脉轮(脈輪)[mài lún]
One of seven symbolic nodes of the body in spiritual Yoga, cakras are centres of Prāṇa, life force, or vital energy. Their name derives from the Sanskrit word for "wheel" or "turning".
Each Chakra is located at a specific site throughout our body. Each governs particular body parts and organs, particular parts of our personality, as well as your psychological and emotional make-up.
