Qi is Everything Everything is Qi

Jacob talks about Qi: Qi theory founds all other theories in acupuncture. It is because all phenomena are contrasting perturbations of a single field of energy that acupuncture points have their effects, qigong works, and we can correlate seasons, emotions, colors, etc. Godwin draws on the classical texts of Daoism and acupuncture to construct a rational understanding of Qi that can accommodate all the wonderment of Qi-based practices and theories while keeping his feet firmly on the ground. If we hope to understand our art, propel it into the future, and integrate it with our society, we have to understand the idea of Qi and all of its implications.
