You may have heard the term “qi” before if you’ve tried acupuncture or have seen a doctor who practices Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Qi (pronounced “chee”) is arguably the most important component of TCM. “Everything is based on qi,” says Dr. Greg Sperber, a doctor of acupuncture and oriental medicine. “Blockages of qi, deficiencies of qi, [and] too much qi are what cause illness. What we do with acupuncture, herbs, and all of Chinese medicine is we try to line up qi.” “Chinese philosophy calls this vital energy qi and describes it as the body’s innate intelligence — the intangible yet measurable way we maintain what’s known as homeostasis, or the body’s ability to regulate its internal environment to create good health,” Blakeway says. Most major cultural traditions identify a “vital energy” that guides someone’s physical and mental processes, says Dr. Jill Blakeway, a doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine. In Indian culture, it’s called prana. In Greek culture, it’s called pneuma. In Chinese culture, it’s called qi. In short, anytime you’re dealing with a medical problem, your qi is likely out of balance. It’s also possible to have excess qi. People with excess qi might appear irritable, stressed, or tense. And anytime you experience pain, you likely have “stuck” qi, Sperber says. This is where acupuncture comes into play, as the goal of the needles is to move your stuck qi around. People who do not have enough qi will likely be fatigued and might feel as though some of their body’s systems aren’t working properly, Blakeway says. This could mean anything from difficulty digesting food, no appetite, and catching colds easily to allergies, anemia, and depression. A qi deficiency can also be emotional. For example, Sperber says, fright can scatter qi, and anger can stagnate qi. “People with a healthy amount of qi feel as if they have enough energy to meet their body’s needs,” Blakeway says. “They sleep well, wake rested, and are able to complete their daily tasks.” How can you tell if you have enough qi? Blakeway says someone with enough qi in his or her body is typically seen as outwardly healthy and energetic. People with balanced qi can quickly fight off a virus, for example, or bounce back after an injury. They typically have good endurance, digestion, and immunity, as well as a clear state of mind. Because qi is involved in all of the body’s processes, there are many different ways you can regulate it.

If you don’t do these three things, he says, your qi won’t be able to flow effectively, and you will likely continue to struggle with whatever medical problem you’re having. Sperber adds that avoiding toxic relationships is crucial when it comes to regulating your qi. “We all have those people in our lives that I say drain qi,” he says. “You feel physically drained after talking with them because they’ve sucked your qi away from you. And you have those friends that just really build you up and give you energy when you talk to them. That’s a good, healthy exchange of qi.” If you think you’re deficient in qi, you can begin to regulate it by:
