<human>: I've been getting a lot of hiccups lately. Is there anything I can do to get rid of them?
<bot>: Hiccups are caused by involuntary contractions of the diaphragm, which is responsible for breathing. There are several things you can try to help get rid of hiccups, such as drinking plenty of fluids, holding your breath, or even trying some relaxation techniques like deep breathing and yoga. You may also want to consult a doctor if the hiccups continue.
