When you feel hungry or thirsty, before immediately turning to food and drink, take a few moments to reflect on these ayat.

Reflect on the discomfort you are feeling at the moment.

Reflect on how it would feel to be in a condition far more severe for all of eternity, never to be satisfied.

Reflect on the level of desperation that the people in these ayat are experiencing.

Reflect on whether the sins you are hooked to are worth the risk of feeling much worse than this forever. 

When you do satisfy your hunger and thirst, thank Allah for it. And ask Him to never allow you to be amongst the people mentioned in these ayat.

(As always, advice is to my own self first and foremost)

جزاكم الله خير كثير.
May Allah guide us to His direct straight path and His sincere devoted worship.
Feeling Him nearer then our nourishing artery, in our unconscious, subconscious and conscious perceptions feelings and emotions.
Seeing Him behind every creation.
All capable, All responding and All bestowing.
