The Six Healing Sounds (also called Liuzijue, or 六字诀 in Chinese) is a breathing technique devised by the ancient Chinese to improve health and promote healing and longevity. The earliest record of the breathing technique is believed to appear during the Southern and Northern Dynasties written by Tao Hongjing (陶弘景), a well-known Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) doctor, Taoist, alchemist as well as astrologer who lived from AD 456 to 536. (Incidentally, he also played a crucial role in the discovery and identification of “Chinese snow” (potassium nitrate) by being the first person on record to describe the unique lilac-colored flame produced when the mineral is burned.)
Over the centuries, the Six Healing Sounds (SHS) went through a number of development and modification by various prominent TCM doctors, Taoists, monks and ascetics such as Sun Simiao (孙思邈), also known as China’s King of Medicine, and Zhiyi (智顗大师), the founder of the Tian Tai school of Buddhism.
