He was my 7th grade Social Studies teacher, Mr. Whalen. I don't remember ANY of the subject matter he taught, but he DID teach us all how to STOP the hiccups...and it really works...and I've remembered that all my life!

@HisHeelsHerHeart Peristalsis is an uncontrolled spasm of the esophagus, which repeats over and over, beyond our control at times. If you VISUALIZE your esophagus, going down your throat to your stomach, and if you try VERY hard, you can STIFFEN it...and hold that stiffness for a count of 20.
You MIGHT have to hold your breath in order to stiffen your esophagus...but if you can...try it!
