Ok here is the deal ever since I start to focus my chi oh so many years ago I’ve felt a “cool” sensation instead of the warm sensation most people describe. (I also get a sensation very similar to trying to push to weak magnets together)

And I remember Robert smith say that some tai chi master had a different kind of chi (I cant find the article right now)

So what to you think? Have you ever hear of different kinds of chi?

Off -base?

I think there are several different kinds of Chi in the body, corresponding to different types of internal energy. I don’t think anybody “has” Chi that others do not. It’s a matter of which kind you have developed, coupled with how you are experiencing it. You may have heard of terms such as “water Chi” “fire chi” etc.
Just my opinion. -FJ

As I understand it, yes there are different kinds of qi. Also, I think people have a propensity towards different types of qi. I tend towards warm qi while s friend of mine tends to project cold qi.

It can be a problem if there is a loss of balance, but I guess your teacher could help you with that.

Not necessarily. It really depends on your own body’s propensity towards warm or cold.

It may also be an imbalance so it may not be a good thing. I know some TCM doctors generally view cold qi as a bad thing.
