School’s out and summer is in full swing — which means it’s officially vacation season! But while getaways are exciting, they don’t always go off without a hitch. Travel can bring on motion sickness symptoms, and overindulging in new foods may lead to nausea. Whether you’re jet-setting abroad or taking a scenic drive to the beach, it helps to be prepared with travel-friendly solutions on hand for queasiness and discomfort.
Motion Sickness Remedies
Face Forward
Looking forward — literally — can help ease motion sickness. Facing the direction you’re traveling allows your eyes and inner ear to sync up, which can reduce feelings of dizziness or nausea. Try focusing on a fixed point in the distance, like the horizon, to minimize conflicting visual cues and calm your senses.
Air it Out
Let in some air to keep queasiness at bay. Fresh air can work wonders for motion sickness, so crack a window or step outside when you can. If that’s not an option, aim an air vent at your face or pack a portable fan to help cool down and reset your senses.

Nausea Solutions
Practice Mindful Eating
Vacations are a time to indulge, but trying new foods or eating too much too quickly can lead to nausea. To help your stomach stay settled, try to eat slowly and savor each bite. Smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day can also be easier to digest than large, heavy ones.
Take a Time Out
Vacation days are often packed with exciting plans, but jumping into activity too soon after eating can trigger nausea. Try setting aside time after meals to rest and digest whether it’s by reading a book or simply chatting with your fellow travelers.
