All of us have probably experienced some form of " motion sickness " .

Maybe it was " seasickness " from riding a boat or ship, " airsickness "

on an airplane, " carsickness " when riding on a car, or even after an

amusement park ride. Is this a kind of illness? Many of us want to

enjoy outdoors, going picnic or sightseeing, but because of motion

sickness, you refuse to enjoy going out.

 

WHAT CAUSES MOTION SICKNESS?

 

Motion sickness usually occurs when having " sensory conflict " ,

specifically a conflict between the eye and ear. When feeling motion

but not seeing it (for example, in a car with your eyes focused

inside the car), the inner ear transmits to the brain that it senses

motion and the car is moving, but the eyes tell the brain that

everything is still because you are focused within the car. As a

result, the brain gets conflicting signals and will come to the

conclusion that one is hallucinating and further conclude that the

hallucination is due to poison ingestion. To clear the supposed

toxin, the brain responds by inducing vomiting.

 

Modern medical science can't find 100% remedy aside from medicine

called tranquilizer. Here, I am going to let you know a very simple

technique that can stop motion sickness for your happy weekend trip

or vacation.

 

SIMPLE TECHNIQUES IN PREVENTING MOTION SICKNESS

 

1. Have a good or enough sleep before going for an outdoor trip.

2. Avoid too much eating before you go. An empty stomach is not good

either.

3. Don't wear tight clothes. Loose clothing is preferable and more

comfortable.

4. Wear dark sunglasses to make your eyes less sensitive to flicker.

 

Have you done the above techniques already? Then, follow below that

is something different from what you knew.

 

NEIGUAN P6 ACUPRESSURE POINT

 

An acupressure point where you can press several times before and

during your trip for relieving motion sickness or nausea is

called " Neiguan P6 Acupressure Point " . It's located in the forearm

three finger widths below the wrist crease. Place your thumb on the

point and press firmly while you breathe out, and release pressure as

you breathe in. This will calm you down and soothe your stomach.

Repeat if you still feel dizzy. This method is known in China for

thousands of years in relieving many sorts of nausea.

 

In Chinese herbal medicine, the use of ginger to prevent motion

sickness is used. Ginger beer or ginger ale helps greatly. Ginger tea

works the best.

 

CARSICKNESS

 

Do you notice that car drivers won't get motion sickness?

Then, why do you get motion sickness?

Do you also notice that when you are in the car your position is not

the same as the driver?

 

If the car turns right, the driver's body also leans to the right,

but the passenger (you) try to get up or lean to the left just like

the photo below.

 

You should follow the movement of the driver. If the car turns right,

your body should lean to the right, too, or vice versa.

 

In this way, you will never get carsickness anymore.

 

Therefore, the definite answer is not to stand against the force of

gravity.

 

Have a happy weekend or happy trip and a happy vacation with your

family.
