A little bit of ginger is good stuff for nausea, yeah, as long as you don't get too much of it and make yourself MORE nauseous from eating spicy food. I also like lightly carbonated drinks for nausea, since soft bubbling can help soothe an upset stomach and of course more liquid intake is always good.

It's also a plecebo effect but I often breath deeply and chant in my head a mantra. It helps me calm my nerves or stomach. Like I said, that's plecebo but at least it helps either way. ; D Shamus / 39 yo Irish Male / In an open marriage / 11 My late wife's birthday was Valentine's Day.

That's not placebo at all. It's psychosomatic in origin, yes, but it's very much a real effect -- relaxing your body really does relieve pain and nausea, and meditative techniques can relax your body. It's concrete and scientifically measurable with a well-understood mechanism of action.
Your choice of mantra is a personal thing. There's not a specific mantra that works best for everyone, but that's a good thing, because it means you can tailor your meditation to what helps you instead of bashing your head against someone else's meditation that they swear up and down works even though it doesn't do a thing for you. At one point in my life I actually used "owa tagu siam" as a mantra. If it starts working better because I told you it's not placebo... well, that part might be placebo. ;) But it's definitely real.

I meditate quite a bit (but have not had the will lately) but I have always wondered how much of it is just plecebo but I guess I am actually helping myself and just doubting it's creditability.

I don't meditate, but I hear it is supposed to help. I just need the discipline for it. Quote:
