There are also symbols which you will come to know and the most common of these are
- The Pa Kua
- The Eight trigrams of the I Ching

Chi is considered to be the vital energy that surrounds all things. This energy can be harnessed and used to improve any aspect of your life. Chi is created in nature by the gentle meandering flow of water, by the shape of a beautiful mountain and by many other elements within nature. Have you ever felt rejuvenated after talking a walk along the beach or felt a sense of calm after strolling along a wooded path.
