In traditional Chinese culture, qi or ch'i (simplified Chinese: ?; traditional Chinese: ?; pinyin: qì About this soundqì) is believed to be a vital force forming part of any living entity. Qi translates as "air" and figuratively as "material energy", "life force", or "energy flow". Qi is the central underlying principle in Chinese traditional medicine and in Chinese martial arts. The practice of cultivating and balancing qi is called qigong. Believers of qi describe it as a vital energy, the flow of which must be balanced for health. Qi is a pseudoscientific, unverified concept, which has never been directly observed and is unrelated to the concept of energy used in science (vital energy itself being an abandoned scientific notion).
