1)Fill a glass with cold water.Bend down at the waist and put your head down.Drink the water from the opposite side of the glass than you would normally.If required, repeat again.

2)Take a deep breath and hold it for as long as you can without letting any air out.Exhale gently in a controlled manner.Inhale and hold your breath again.Do this for several cycles until the hiccups stop.
