Stanford University conducted a virtual reality outdoor experience study on a group of seniors and found that
there was a significant decrease in age-related depression during their VR experiences. In fact, VR
experiences are helping in other degenerative and cognitive illnesses like age-related dementia and
Alzheimer’s by stimulating those parts of the brain affected by the disease.
When it comes to virtual vacations, your brain doesn't differentiate between a VR-vacation and a real
vacation it’s a break for your mind. If you’re stressed, take a quick hour long vacation during your lunch
break to clear your mind and refocus.
Try It! You Might Like It!
The technology is not as expensive as you might think and with a reasonably priced set of VR goggles and a
VR app, you can go “virtually” anywhere, anytime! If you enjoy yourself, they’re worth it. Even if you don’t like
it, you’re only out an hour or so of your time.
If you have a family that all wants to go to different places, take virtual vacations to make everyone happy.
For the best experience, all you need is a VR headset. Travel anywhere by using VR apps, such as:
Google Earth VR
Gala 360
Ascape
BLVRD
Discovery TRVLR
