Your best friend Dr. Jennifer Lawrence has found the cure for hiccups—securing her spot as the people’s star.

A [_Vulture_ reporter witnessed](http://www.vulture.com/2014/05/cannes-jennifer-lawrence-shares-hiccup-cure.html) Lawrence’s hiccup treatment at a _Vanity Fair_ Cannes Film Festival party. The hiccuping actress told her non-hiccuping entourage, “Seriously, I need some water now… The only thing that ever works for getting rid of hiccups for me is when I drink water and raise my arms over my head and lower them _very_ slowly.”

The reporter nervously watched Lawrence (note: being scared, another cure for the hiccups) for the two minutes it took for the actress to drain a water bottle and very, very slowly lower her arms.

And… it worked. Thanks for your infinite wisdom J-Law.

You can all go back to your work weeks now.
