Why do you feel dizzy after traveling in summer?

In psychology, the phenomenon of dizziness when riding in a car or boat is called motion dizziness, which is often accompanied by physical discomfort symptoms such as nausea and vomiting. The main reasons are as follows:

Reason 1: The body's movement information conflicts with the person's psychological movement information (mainly personal expectations), resulting in a feeling of dizziness. For example, when sitting in a car that makes many turns, your kinesthetic and balance senses tell you that your body is moving, but the stationary objects in the car such as seats, windows, etc. that you see with your eyes make you feel mentally as if you are still. This inconsistency can confuse you and ultimately lead to motion sickness. If you look outside the car and mentally accept the fact that the car is turning, the dizziness will be reduced or even disappear.

Reason 2: The hair cells in the inner ear, which are responsible for the sense of balance, have no time to adjust to the body's state, resulting in a feeling of loss of balance and dizziness.

Reason three: The body's circadian rhythm is not coordinated with the vibration rhythm of the car and boat, resulting in physiological imbalance and dizziness and vomiting. Some scientists found that some people who got motion sickness in a certain car stopped feeling faint after switching to another type of car. The study found that the vibration rhythms of the engines of the two types of cars were different. The closer the body's circadian rhythm is to the vibration rhythm of the car, the more likely it is that the car will cause motion sickness. Vibration causes physical discomfort.

Reason four: psychological suggestion. People who have experienced motion sickness or have seen others become motion sick often feel uncomfortable as soon as they get in a car, even though the car is not running yet.

Therefore, try to divert your attention and don't hint that you are going to get motion sickness
