Motion sickness happens when your brain gets confused. Imagine you're riding in a car, your eyes see the road moving, but your body feels still. Your brain says, 'Wait, what's going on?' That confusion makes you feel sick.
Examples
- Reading in a car makes you feel sick because your eyes see the book moving but your body feels still.
- Sailing on rough seas can make people vomit since their inner ear senses movement but their eyes might not see it clearly.
- Playing video games while sitting still can cause motion sickness, even though your body isn’t moving, your eyes are seeing action.
