start chewing bubblegum (with mint) if you have issues with vr, it sounds stupid but it really helps

Or take a Dramamine - it is identical to sea sickness. Treat it that way.

Your body will eventually get used to being on the sea if you do it even slightly correctly. Same with VR.

But I don't see why for example my Grandma is gonna do that, or my neighbor.

It's cool but it isn't that cool, and I say that as someone with 2000+ hours in VR with arguably the best VR headset (Index).

I would go with chewing gum, less invasive ;)
