Motion sickness happens when your brain gets confused. Imagine you're in a car, and you're looking at a book instead of out the window. Your eyes think you're still, but your body feels like it's moving, and that makes you feel sick! It's like a mismatch between what your brain sees and what your body feels.
Examples
- Reading a book in the back seat of a moving car might make you feel sick.
- Looking at your phone while on a boat could cause you to feel dizzy or even vomit.
- If you're sitting still in a car that's moving, it might feel like you're spinning.
