आहार तलब (food crav) शरीर की सांकेतिक भाषा है । शरीर पाँच तत्व से बना हुआ है प्रकृति की ही तरह। आकाश, वायु, अग्नि, जल, पृथ्वी ये पाँच तत्व आपके शरीर में रोज़ खुराक की तरह जाना चाहिए।
1 आकाश तत्व- एक खाने से दूसरे खाने के बीच में विराम दें। रोज़ाना 15 घंटे का उपवास करें जैसे रात का भोजन 7 बजे तक कर लिया और सुबह का नाश्ता 9 बजे लें।
2 वायु तत्व- लंबा गहरा स्वाँस अंदर भरें और रुकें फिर पूरे तरीक़े से स्वाँस को ख़ाली करें रुकें फिर स्वाँस अंदर भरें ये एक चक्र हुआ। ऐसे 10 चक्र एक टाइम पर करना है। ये दिन में चार बार करें।I
खुली हवा में बैठें या टहलें।
3 अग्नि तत्व- सूरर्य उदय के एक घंटे बाद या सूर्य अस्त के एक घंटे पहले का धूप शरीर को ज़रूर लगाएँ। सर और आँख को किसी सूती कपड़े से ढक कर। जब भी लेंटे अपना दायाँ भाग ऊपर करके लेटें ताकि आपकी सूर्य नाड़ी सक्रिय रहे।
4 जल तत्व- खाना खाने से एक घंटे पहले नाभि के ऊपर गीला सूती कपड़ा लपेट कर रखें और खाना के 2 घंटे बाद भी ऐसा करना है।
नीम के पत्ते का पेस्ट अपने नाभि पर रखें। 20मिनट तक रख कर साफ़ कर लें।
मेरुदंड स्नान के लिए अगर टब ना हो तो एक मोटा तौलिया गीला कर लें बिना निचोरे उसको बिछा लें और अपने मेरुदंड को उस स्थान पर रखें।
मेरुदंड (स्पाइन) सीधा करके बैठें। हमेशा इस बात ध्यान रखें
5. पृथ्वी और शरीर का बनावट एक जैसा 70% पानी से भरा हुआ। पानी जो कि फल, सब्ज़ी से मिलता है।
शरीर में ऊर्जा कमी हो तो मीठे का तलब होता है ऐसे में फल और सुखा फल लें। शरीर में प्राकृतिक वसा की कमी हो तो तले भूने हुए चीज़ों को खाने का मन करता है ऐसे में काजु, बादाम, अखरोट, नारियल, तिल, अलसी, मूँगफली तरबूज़, ख़रबूज़ के बीज कद्दू के बीज लें। अधिक प्यास लग रहा तो मिनरल की कमी है। हरे पत्ते या हरे पत्ते की सब्ज़ी का जूस लें। बार बार भुख लगना यानी शरीर को वो पोषक तत्व नहीं मिल रहा है जिसकी ज़रूरत है। सलाद लें बिना नींबू नमक के मेवों (nuts) के साथ। नमक, मिर्ची, मसालों का तलब तो विटामिन c युक्त सब्ज़ी लें। टमाटर, सैलरी, धनिया पत्ता, करी पत्ता, बेल्पत्रा, पुदीना पत्ता सलाद में मिलाएँ या चटनी या herbal juice के रूप में सुबह के नाश्ते से एक घंटा पहले और दोपहर और रात के खाने से एक घंटे पहले लें।
नमक सेंधा ही प्रयोग करें। नमक की मात्रा दोपहर के खाने में भी बहुत कम लें। सब्ज़ी पकने बाद उसमें नमक डालें। नमक पका कर या अधिक खाने से शरीर में (fluid) की कमी हो जाती है। एक नियम हमेशा याद रखें ठोस (solid) खाने को चबा कर तरल (liquid) बना कर खाएँ। तरल (liquid) को मुँह में घूँट घूँट पीएँ। खाना ज़मीन पर बैठ कर खाएँ। खाते वक़्त ना तो बात करें और ना ही TV और mobile को देखें। ठोस (solid) भोजन के तुरंत बाद या बीच बीच में जूस या पानी ना लें। भोजन हो जाने के एक घंटे बाद तरल पदार्थ (liquid) ले सकते हैं।
ऐसा करने से हाज़मा कभी ख़राब नहीं होगा।
जानवरों से उपलब्ध होने वाले भोजन वर्जित हैं।
तेल, मसाला, और गेहूँ से परहेज़ करेंगे तो अच्छा होगा। चीनी के जगह गुड़ और सुखा फल मीठे का उत्तम स्रोत है।
हफ़्ते में एक दिन उपवास करें। शाम तक केवल पानी लें, प्यास लगे तो ही पीएँ। शाम 5 बजे नारियल पानी और रात 8 बजे सलाद।
धन्यवाद।

Namaste,
Three things are important, Healthy living, journey & festival.
*Alcohol is not necessary,it is injurious for our heath,no one can force for taking alcohol,it is totally depends upon me, what should do.there are so many things also available in party to eat. You can ignore Alcohol health purpose.no one wants you fall ill.
* journey is important,but it is not important to eat things available in the market,we can carry dry fruits, fruits, but according to myself journey is the best day for fasting.
*Festival is important because they're symbol of expressing happiness,and our culture,one day eating tasty food & sweets can't collect marbid matter inside our body,but take less quantity chew well .
Second day fasting is important.

Namaste,
To address your question, its all depends on mindset and your will power.
Choose healthy diet from your menu and eat it accordingly to avoid unwanted side affects later stage.
You can carry selected fruits like apple, pomegranate, pears, grapes, orange and plums.
Vegetables like Carrot, cucumber with you when you travel.
Dry fruits laddu also be very beneficial while travelling.
During parties and Festivals-
First see if you find vegetable soup then have one cup, later have a plate full of some vegetables like carrot, brocoli, Onion to munch.
Then start with your menu with Wheat roti and mixed vegetable curry, then vegetable rice or pulav.
Have some fruits.
This is best option to keep yourself healthy during Parties.
Thanks.
Hi Doshi, the only way to handle cravings is by leading a holistic lifestyle with high raw for a prolonged period of time. The first step is to quit all animal products. But this doesn’t stop the craving. It will only help the body to start detoxing. As you start including a lot of juices from vegetables and fruits, have fruits in abundance, have salads in abundance, your gut will start cleaning itself. Cravings are nothing but wrong messages from the gut to the brain sent by bad bacteria and viruses To get food for their survival. Once you start cleaning the gut, The current cravings automatically vanish. It also takes some willpower and determination to handle these initially. Please remember that once you start detoxing, you will have a lot of cravings which are hidden emotions/suppressed emotions for food which were not handled properly in the past. At that time it is best to make a choice to pick fruits in place of those foods otherwise the vicious cycle will continue to haunt you. Remember that every single living beings including viruses and bacteria will fight for their survival. When you stop giving the foods that they feed on, they will send wrong messages to the brain for wanting the wrong foods. If you give in to their demands they will continue to thrive in your body causing harm. Hence you must be aware that hunger is a sign for the body asking for glucose and cravings are wrong messages going to the brain because of the toxic accumulation in your body.
Rest assured people have handled their cravings successfully for a long time even from extreme food addictions by surrendering to the power of fruits vegetables and leafy greens in the form of juicing and whole produce.
In functions and parties or festivals I would focus on these groups
Priority wise topmost being the highest
1. I will avoid diary like milk based or curd based foods,sweets with ghee,paneer ,milk creams , cheese
2. I will avoid fried foods
3. I will avoid maida based sweets
4. Avoid sugar
5. Avoid pickles
6. Maida based nan - these have curd most of the time ..So I avoid
7. Worst case is to eat fried outside in low hygienic places becoz when one heat oils
they become toxic and outside oils are refined and they heat and repeat heating
multiple times.
8. Jalebi and Jahangir and badushah and such sweets have curd in it..I avoid
9. I used avoid wheAt chapathi s outside majorly as they get mixed with maida. I am now gluten free, so this is not a question.
What I am OK to consume outside
1. Salads and all the available raw at that time.
2. White Rice sambar rasam because we don’t get whole grains
3. Mixed rice like Biryani and pulavs
4. Vegetable gravies which I know won't have diary like dals
5. Chats which are more like bhel but no fried items
6. Anything gluten free oilfree is ok
7. We can’t expect oilfree tadka.. so some exceptions there.
During festivals, i still stick to the same rules. My family, my in-laws have kind of gotten used to the fact that I won’t change. I mingle well with everybody, I participate in all functions, I spread happiness despite my food limitations. This has made them accept me with my habits even if they don’t like it.
It’s all a matter of how you carry yourself, and stick to your principles. Ultimately you are the only person who can define your health and how you achieve that.
Be blessed
