I know most of you at one time or another pondered this question. I have thought about this for years myself. We all possess the ability to call on our chi, but most folks don’t really realize they have it.
I found my chi so to speak by applying the concept of the “mind moves the chi.” I first imagined that I had it, before I actually felt it. Overtime What I imagined I was able to feel.
Discovering My Chi Through Martial Arts
I have read tons on this subject of Chi, so from what I have read and experienced I believe, (DON”T QUOTE ME LOLS THIS IS JUST MY OPINION)
People who train there breathing in conjuction with their movements, like in the practice of Chi Gung, Tai Chi, Nei Kung etc. Develop the ability to control the flow of their blood.
Taoist call it (Life Force) I just call it blood flow! I also noticed that being able to control your blood flow you are also able to control the pressure in your body. Chi is great for martial artist that use pressure control in their fighting.

Qigong—Chinese mind/body exercises–helped me immensely in my successful battles with four bouts of supposedly terminal bone lymphoma cancer in the early nineties. I practiced standing post meditation, one of the most powerful forms of qigong–as an adjunct to chemotherapy, which is how it should always be used.
Qigong kept me strong in many ways: it calmed my mind–taking me out of the fight-or-flight syndrome, which pumps adrenal hormones into the system that could interfere with healing. The deep abdominal breathing pumped my lymphatic system—a vital component of the immune system. In addition, qigong energized and strengthened my body at a time when I couldn’t do Western exercise such as weight-lifting or jogging–the chemo was too fatiguing. And it empowered my will and reinforced it every day with regular practice. In other words, I contributed to the healing process, instead of just depending solely on the chemo and the doctors. Clear 14 years and still practicing!

Hi Bob thanks for stopping by and adding value to my post. Thanks for sharing your story.
The Taoists understood that the universe is a massive chi-matrix, a web of interconnectivity, and that following the chi-cycle is the means by which we can link into it. Once we do this, our destiny becomes clear and the impossible becomes possible.
