Yuán Qì
In traditional Chinese medicine and Chinese culture, ''yuán qì'' (元氣) or vital qi, innate or prenatal qi. Inborn qi (Jing 精) is differentiated from acquired qi that a person may develop or replenished over their lifetime. Further more traditionally it is said that the Kidneys are the root of qi, Left being Yuan yin and the right being Yuan yang. The transportation of Yuan qi is done via the triple warmer ( San Jiao 三膲) in Chinese medicine, and is associated with the adrenal glands as in western medicine. Porkert describes the concept as "the metaphorical designation of the inborn constitution, the vital potential that is gradually used up in the course of life.
