Extreme and frequent car sickness | Able to read in the car without nausea |
Overall the biggest benefit that I gained for myself from doing the rhythmic movements [from the Brain and Sensory Foundations course] is that I no longer get car sick. When I first started, I couldn’t tolerate the rhythmic movements for longer than about 30 secs. I quickly gained tolerance to several minutes. I improved so much that I was able to help my sister study for an exam by reading her questions while riding in a car for 2 ½ hours while she was driving. I was able to repeat this going home the next day. I could never have tolerated even reading more than a sentence before. That demonstrated to me personally how powerful these movements are.
