Ki in English

Ki kanji sign and logoWhat is meant by Ki?
Ki is an old japanese word which does not translate easily into english. It is used in many common Japanese idiomatic phrases where it conveys a meaning of spirit, energy, power, or air (gaseous). There is an old connection between spirit and breath (air) related to the Chinese word Chi (or Qi) and to the Hindu word Prana.

This older meaning of Ki as being a term for the life force (breath) and natural power within us and within all things is how we use the term here.
