Q&A for How to Control Chi

Practice meditation to strengthen your chi. Stress can have many negative impacts on your state of mind. Meditating even for just a small amount of time every day can help put your mind at ease. Try closing your eyes and breathing deeply for a minute or two every few hours, or use another meditation technique that you like.

People often become stressed by worrying about doing everything perfectly. You have to let go of this way of thinking so you can focus on being calm. Give yourself room to make errors and learn from them.

Focus on the current moment—what you're doing, how you're feeling, and how you're interacting with others around you. This will help you build a better foundation for mindfulness.

The 3 most important things to focus on are your posture, your breath, and your mental focus. When you practice, stand or sit up straight, breathe deeply from your diaphragm (so your belly rises instead of your shoulders), and focus on the flow of energy through your body. All these things will help you have a more effective Tai Chi session.

This is actually common in most meditators, but it might be if you have a headache and try to meditate at the same time. Try not to think about the spinning and concentrate on something else.

No. The depictions of chi manipulation in Dragon Ball and similar sources are greatly exaggerated. More realistic depictions of chi include the "iron shirt" technique, as demonstrated by Shaolin monks.

No, that is not possible.

No, unfortunately that is not possible.

Relax in a tranquil area and unwind your stresses in life while letting your mind wander, this will allow you to become in sync with your chi.

No, cosmic energy comes from the space around you, while chi comes from within you. If you can learn to combine them, then you can reach a point of enlightenment.

You may be thinking of that cartoon from some time ago. So more specifically, in real life, no. No you can't.

Before being able to manipulate qi, it is a requirement to flow the energy within the channels in one's body. This is another practice and considered the essence of the practice of qi cultivation. Bear in mind: the first is to make/cultivate, then store, and emit. Thereafter, keep improving the qi every day.
