Routine 4
1. (Continue from the previous movement as in Fig. 34) Lower the hands with the palms facing up, and point the fingers at each other. Look forward and down [Fig. 37] .
2. Slowly straighten the knees to stand up. Raise the hands to chest level. Look forward and down [Fig. 38] .
3. Lower the elbows, and withdraw them to the flanks. Raise the hands to shoulder height, with the fingers pointing up [Figs. 39 and 39A] .
Pull in the shoulder blades towards the spine by spreading the shoulders and the chest. Tilt the head back a little while pulling in the neck. Look forward and up [Figs. 40, 40A and 40B] .
4. Adopt a slight squatting position, at the same time relaxing the shoulders and making the neck straight. Slowly push the palms forward while pronouncing "SI." Keep the eyes fixed straight ahead [Figs. 41 and 42] .
5. Turn the wrists in an outward circle to face the palms inward, with the fingers pointing to each other and shoulder-width apart [Figs. 43 and 44] .
6. Slowly straighten the knees to stand up, at the same time bending the elbows and slowly withdrawing the hands to a position about 10 cm in front of the chest, with the palms up and fingers pointing to each other. Look forward and down [Fig.45] .
7. Lower the elbows, and make them touch the ribs. Raise the hands to shoulder height, with the palms facing each other and the fingers pointing up [Figs. 46 and 46A] . Pull in the shoulder blades towards the spine. Spread the shoulders and chest. Pull in the neck while tilting the head back a little, and look forward and up [Figs. 47, 47A and 47B] .
8. Adopt a slight squatting position, at the same time relaxing the shoulders and keeping the neck straight. Slowly extend the hands forward while pronouncing "SI," palms facing forward. Keep the eyes fixed straight ahead [Figs. 48 and 49] .
Repeat movements 5-8 four times, pronouncing "SI" a total of six times.
Key points
The pronunciation of "SI" is assisted by the teeth. In the process of exhalation and pronunciation, make the front upper and lower teeth parallel, with a narrow gap in between. The tongue tip touches lightly the lower teeth. Exhale the air from between the teeth [Fig. 50] .
Exhale and pronounce "SI" while pushing the hands out. Turn the wrists outward, with the fingers pointing to each other. Inhale through the nose when withdrawing the hands.
Common mistakes
Complete the acts of raising the palms, spreading the shoulders and the chest, tilting the head back a little to pull in the neck at the same point in time.
Moving the head backward too much when pulling in the neck.
Corrections
Raise the hands to shoulder level; then spread the shoulders and chest; and then tilt the head back a little to pull in the neck. These movements should be done step by step.
When tilting the head back and pulling in the neck, pull in the chin slightly.
Functions and effects
The theory of traditional Chinese medicine holds that the lungs will respond when the sound "SI" is pronounced, and that the exhalation and the pronunciation of "SI" help to rid the lungs of turbid Qi and regulate its function.
Spreading the shoulders and chest, and pulling in the neck by somewhat tilting the head back help to fill the lung cavities with flesh air. Contracting the lower abdomen raises internal energy from Dantian (about two inches below the navel) upward to the chest. The convergence in the chest of fresh air and energy helps to improve the breathing, thus invigorating the refreshment of Qi and blood and air exchange in the lungs.
Raising the hands to shoulder height, relaxing the shoulders and pushing the hands forward stimulate the points around the shoulders, effectively reducing muscle and joint fatigue at the shoulders, neck and back, and preventing cervical problems, periarthritis and back muscle fatigue.

Practice Tips of Liu Zi Jue

Liu Zi Jue is a set of Qigong exercises for health and fitness, with breathing as the mainstay and simple guiding movements accompanying the breathing routines. Following are recommendations:
Adjusting the Mouth Forms and Feeling the Air Flow Focus should be placed on correct mouth forms and related air flow when it passes the throat, tongue, teeth and lips. The six mouth forms and related air flow routes have important effects on the vital inner energy and the functions of the inner organs. A correct mouth form is judged from two aspects: the pronunciation and the feeling of the air flow for each of the six sounds. The beginner can first pronounce the sounds to adjust his or her mouth forms until the correct pronunciation is attained. The practitioner should then try to switch to exhalation with a slight, gentle pronunciation, and finally attain a quiet breathing process.Combining the Mind with Breathing and Movements. The mind should be in tune with the relaxed, extended movements and even and prolonged breathing and pronunciation. However, excessive concentration is counterproductive. Practice should be done in a coordinated and natural manner,and excessive concentration could lead to rigid movements and hurried breathing. The body should be completely relaxed, and excessive effort should be avoided. Only a calm mind and relaxed body can slow the breathing and pulse, so as to set the breathing at an ideal rate. Rigid movements as a result of excessive thought foil the internal balance and functions of the organs. An interactive combination requires the focus to be put on breathing, with the movements as assistants.
Breathing with Slight Control Breathing consists of natural breathing and the abdominal breathing, and the latter can be divided into direct and regress breathing. Liu Zi Jue uses the regress breathing, which requires that when inspiration begins through the nose, the chest cavity should be expanded and the abdomen pulled in. This sequence should be reversed during expiration through the mouth. This increases the upward and downward movements of the diaphragm, effectively massaging the organs, to effectively improve circulation of the blood and vital energy. Beginners should bear in mind that only very slight attention should be paid when breathing, and the breath should be gentle, extended, unconscious and prolonged. No intentional strength should be applied, and excessive effort to expand or pull in the abdomen is to be avoided at all costs.
Coordinating Breathing with Slow, Relaxed and Gentle Movements In Liu Zi Jue, breathing is the major practice, accompanied by Qi or vital energy conduction movements which help to flex the joints and enhance the strength and functions of the muscles and bones. The coordination between breathing and pronunciation and the physical exercises should be done in a loose, relaxed, slow and gentle manner to avoid disturbing the even and prolonged breathing and pronunciation.
Step by Step for Consistency A quiet place with fresh air is most suitable for performing the exercises. A sports suit of loose or other type of comfortable attire helps energy and blood circulation, and makes movement easier. A relaxed body and mind help the practitioner to totally concentrate. The exercises should be done in a gradual way, and the pace, intensity, length of breathing and times of exercise can be adjusted to suit the health conditions of the aged and the weak. After finishing a practice session, it is recommended that one rub the palms and the face, and take a walk to regain the pre-practice status. Confidence in the effects on health and fitness and perseverance are a must for the exercises to be successful.

Characteristics of Liu Zi Jue
Special Recommend information on A H1N1 (swine flu)
As it is known to all, currently we human being are all faced with a big enemy-A/H1N1 flu (swine flu) which has been threatening our life. Now the situation is worsening. As health and medical organ, we shoulder more responsibility to handle outbreak of this emergency.

Mouth Forms Required for Pronunciation
Liu Zi Jue features a unique set of special mouth forms to regulate and control the rise and fall of Qi (vital energy) inside the body and related inhalation and exhalation. By means of the breathing and pronunciation methods for XU, HE, HU, SI, CHUI and XI, Liu Zi Jue is unique in balancing the energy and the functions of the inner organs. The authors have tried to standardize the mouth forms and related pronunciation methods. Such efforts have resulted in a complete system with independent and interactive elements.
Combining Breathing and Movements with Cultivation of Energy
With the focus on breathing and pronouncing the required sounds, Liu Zi Jue features a scientific guideline which helps to regulate the internal organs and enhance the muscles and bones for general health and fitness. Ge Hong of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (317-420) described such effects in a book: "Those who know the real meaning of breathing can enjoy the proper internal circulation of energy vital for the health, and those who know the ways to apply strength and the ways to relax can expect a long life."
Dynamics Infused in Calmness and Flowing Grace
With clear Qigong characteristics, Liu Zi Jue boasts a unique charm of calmness and gentleness, with movements as extended, slow, gentle and graceful as flowing water and clouds. The mysterious and palpable effects are as if one is infused with Qi, leading to a graceful integrity of the body, mind and spirit. The pronunciation is required to be even and extended, and the movements relaxed and slow. Regulated breathing is even required during the inert posture. All this brings one to a calm yet dynamic state, which improves the circulation of vital energy and the functions of the inner organs.
Simple, Reliable and Effective
The exercises are based on the pronunciation of the six sounds during exhalation, accompanied with typical and simple movements. The nine movements, including the ones done in the preparatory and concluding posture, are all easy to learn and practice. The practice requires the mind to follow the circulation of Qi which goes with every stage of the movement, to cultivate the inner energy. Without complicated spiritual striving or difficult, intensive movements, the exercises are safe and reliable, and especially suitable the aged and the weak.

Origins and Development of Liu Zi Jue- Part Two
Special Recommend information on A H1N1 (swine flu)
As it is known to all, currently we human being are all faced with a big enemy-A/H1N1 flu (swine flu) which has been threatening our life. Now the situation is worsening. As health and medical organ, we shoulder more responsibility to handle outbreak of this emergency.
In TCM, A/H1N1 belongs to epidemic febrile disease of TCM which is the same as human avian influenza and SARS and similar to A/H1N1 flu syndrome differentiation and treatment of TCM prevention and cure. It is advocated “dispelling wind, reducing fever and dissipating dampness in clinical.

The term Liu Zi Jue first appears in a book called On Caring for the Health of the Mind and Prolonging the Life Span , written by Tao Hongjing of the Southern and Northern Dynasties (420-589). A leading figure of the Maoshan School of Taoism, Tao was renowned for his profound knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine. "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," he writes in the book. He explains further: "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 help to cure it."
Zou Pu'an, of the Song Dynasty (960-1279), was a major contributor, in terms of theory and practice, to the transmission of the exercises. In his book titled The Supreme Knack for Health Preservation--Six-Character Approach to Breathing Exercises , he recommends, "Don't listen to anything when pronouncing the sounds. Close your mouth, lower your head after finishing, breath in fresh air from the universe slowly through the nose. Don't listen to anything when inhaling." He also recommends such preparatory movements as tapping the teeth, licking the front of the teeth with the lips closed and swallowing saliva.
No body movements accompanied the Liu Zi Jue exercises until the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), when Hu Wenhuan and Gao Lian wrote books on the subject. For instance, they both included in their books the summary of Liu Zi Jue for dispelling diseases and prolonging the life span, which combines controlled breathing with physical exercises, "Open the eyes wide when doing the XU Exercise for the liver. Raise the arms when doing the SI Exercise for the lungs. Stick head up and cross the hands when doing the HE Exercise for the heart. Keep the knees level when doing the CHUI Exercise for the kidneys. Thrust and round the lips when doing the HU Exercise for the spleen, and lie down when doing the XI Exercise to drive heat from Sanjiao."
There are a number of schools of exercises which incorporate elements of Liu Zi Jue , including Yi Jin Jing (Tendon-Muscle Strengthening Exercises), E Mei Zhuang (Emei Stake Exercises), Xing Yi Quan (12-Animal Shadow Boxing), Ba Gua Zhang (Eight-Diagram Palm) and Da Yan Gong (Wild Goose Exercises). But the sounds are used as an aid to physical exercises in these dynamic Qigong, which is different from Liu Zi Jue. An authoritative work on the subject is Ma Litang's Liu Zi Jue Health and Fitness Exercises for clinical application.
The theoretical basis of the Liu Zi Jue exercises is in line with the ancient theories intrinsic to traditional Chinese medicine of the Five Elements (metal, wood, water, fire and earth) and the Five Solid Viscera (heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys). They tend to be on common ground on such issues as mouth forms and pronunciation methods, and the direction of body movements and mind follow the inner circulation law of the meridians of traditional Chinese medicine. Yet, the standardization poses a problem as there have been different points of view on such issues as the pronunciation of the sounds HE and SI, the correct mouth forms and whether the sounds should be pronounced at all, the correspondence between the sounds and the internal organs and the order of these sounds in practice. There are special relationships between the pronunciations and accompanying movements, but they need to be proved by scientific theories and tests. The authors of this book did a lot of research in this respect before compiling this new concept of exercises which are easy to learn and practice.
