15. Which of the following activities would be appropriate for home-based VRT that is focusing on Sensory Substitution? Attending a class on mindfulness-based meditation, to accept and "move on" from feelings of dizziness Performing soduku daily, while seated at the breakfast table. Installing night-lights in the hallways and bathrooms, for better visibility for nighttime bathroom visits. While seated, reading the infomercial 1-800 number while gently shaking one's head "no" (left to right), for 20 seconds, five times a day.
