New Age Tantra: FOODAHOLIC??

Are you a foodie?! Well, if not then you better start to be, before someone calls you ‘outdated’. Latest gossips between women are always about the newest restaurants and foreign trips, which makes it so very obvious that food is a ‘hot’ topic to discuss over.
Restaurants today, have the buffet system and people always over load their tummies while hogging on the delicious starters and tasty deserts without even caring about the main course. Main course is like so common! Now that is what always rings a bell in our minds. Hogging over starters is usually nothing until it arrives to the main course and we start thinking about calories. Then the planning starts of the next morning gym hour, but that accomplishment and satisfaction is hardly ever received because we never want to sacrifice our Sunday morning beauty sleep. Such is a common instinctive today. ‘It’s our age now, how does it even matter?’ is what the adults use to defend themselves but that also affects their kids who learn the same habits as their parents. Believe it or not, but this is the bitter truth.
You can never afford to be too rich and too thin at the same time, and accepting it is a challenge.
Being fat does not mean that you lead yourself to risky dieting schedules. Being a little plum and healthy is always required for kids. Statistics state that the children are indirectly forced to curse themselves for being fat by their surrounding behavior. While this is known to a thousand, ignorant world yet does not change.
Where we consume so much food, a million starve and crave for it. Why is it always so that we tend to realize things late? But it’s never too late. If we want we can still help the world and help ourselves too. Every change requires a beginning and that beginning requires a change in thought. Apart from not wasting food we should also try to have good eating habits. For example, having a healthy diet is essential than your glass of cad-B.
Media today surely knows its audience. How better can they make our decisions than ourselves and that makes everything else very obvious. Well, I don’t say that media has a negative role in our lives, but we sometimes tend to let it play such a hideous character without being aware of it. Beverages like ‘diet cola’ and substitutes such as ‘sugar free’ use media to make- believe us that it is the most non-hazardous product, even though at the back of our minds somewhere we know that it is not.
Physical activities play a vital role in a student’s life. It not only keeps them physically fit but also mentally. A student’s life can be very hectic but a little time outside the house always helps. Health and physical knowledge is way too important than regular gossips. It makes a child more aware of himself than he would get by reading a bunch of pages loaded with information. Physical activity refreshes a child’s brain and also helps him in classroom studies.
Lack of concentration is a major diversion in students today. They are usually physically present but mentally their mind is somewhere else. This can be due to many reasons, but all indirectly lead to the same ‘food’ issue. So we must all keep in mind that even little things matter a lot, especially in the case of health.
Everything in life is important, may it be the food we eat, and it certainly should not be ignored. As we always say ‘NOBODY’S PERFECT’, but who knows taking care of small things might make us someday!
