Arguably the most visible VR game in the world, Beat Saber (available for SteamVR, Oculus VR, Playstation VR) can provide highly varied physical workouts, all timed to the work of a growing roster of musical artists including Imagine Dragons, Timbaland, and Green Day. Players slash through glowing cubes using a virtual laser-sword in a neon-dappled VR space in solo or multiplayer modes, the latter being about as close as many gamers will get to a traditional arcade DDR showdown amid social distancing.

Not only believed to combat depression and anxiety by releasing endorphins, such moderate physical exercise as a light stroll along a virtual beach or a brief yoga session can be crucial to keeping yourself sane with so much uncertainty around. Those who wish to explore their own minds at a deeper level will find no shortage of opportunities in VR, from the obvious (intensive meditation experiences) to the abstract (fractal patterns to accompany unguided self-reflection).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The opportunities provided by VR may currently be undervalued by all but super-fans and enthusiasts but with an increased need for alternate ways of staying healthy in the COVID era, there\u2019s a real focus on VR and what it uniquely brings to the table.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As 2020 nears its end and the COVID-19 pandemic continues to keep more and more people housebound, isolated, and lacking<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":786,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[91,87,95,96],"class_list":["post-782","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-technology","tag-covid","tag-health","tag-meditation","tag-vr-health"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>VR for a Healthy Body &amp;
