Relax. Find something to focus on, whether it’s taking deep breaths or counting backwards from 100. Closing your eyes can help, too. Look at a stable object. If you’re on a boat, look at the horizon. If you’re in a car, look through the windshield. Avoid alcohol. Eat lightly before travel but don’t fast. Breathe fresh air -- and don’t smoke. Avoid reading. Natural Remedies Some people feel like they get relief with these: Raw ginger. There’s some scientific proof that this root, long used as a folk remedy to fight nausea, is effective. But it may act as a blood thinner. Talk to your doctor first before you use it. Mint. Eating peppermint is thought to calm the body. At the very least, the aroma may soothe you. Acupuncture and acupressure. Some people say that stimulating a certain point just below the wrist helps ease their nausea.
