LiuZiJue is a very old form of QiGong which appeared in traditional Chinese medical literature written by Tao Hongjing, a
prominent figure of the Maoshan School of Daoism (Southern and Northern Dynasties 420 - 589).
This 6 sound Qi Gong form was extolled by Tao Hongjing in his treatise "Caring for the Health of the Mind and Prolonging the
Life Span".
"One has only one way for inhalation, but six for exhalation - chui, hu, xi, he, xu and si.
Chui gets rid of heat,
Hu sweeps away wind, Xi eliminates worries, He promotes the circulation of energy, Xu drives away cold and Si reduces stress.
Those with heart disease should practice Chui, and Hu to drive away cold and heat.
Those with lung disease should practice Xu, to relieve swelling.
Those who have spleen trouble should practice Xi to eliminate stress.
As for those who suffer from a liver disease, He will cure it."
