Few Guidelines on Dining Table Vastu

Below are step-by-step dining table Vastu shastra principles & Ideas.

1. The kitchen should not be placed at the Southwest corner of the house. This placement may obstruct one’s financial (Vastu for money) growth and may also affect health.

2. Humans normally take breakfast, lunch, supper, and dinner. Some people eat very often, jokingly called “all-time eaters”. Such people may sit facing East or Southwest as convenient.

3. If one wishes to place the dining table at the center of the house, it can be done, but care should be taken if the table shifts towards the Southwest corner.

4. In some homes, the dining room is on the upper floor and the kitchen is at the ground floor. Carrying food across stairs regularly is not advisable.

5. It is generally good to have the dining room in the East (Vastu for East facing) or North. For better clarity, it is advised to seek guidance from an expert Vastu consultant.

6. Placing the dining room on the West side (read more at Vastu for West direction) is also acceptable if the kitchen is located towards the Northwest.

7. While taking food, the head of the family may sit on the West side facing East. Other members may sit facing East or North.

8. Nobody should sit facing the South (South direction house Vastu). If done, simple quarrels may arise. If the kitchen door is towards Western-Northwest, quarrels may occur; if the kitchen door is towards Northeast-North, such issues may not arise.

9. Offering food to the cow is considered good for the entire family. Before eating, a small portion may be offered to birds and animals. When nature is respected, the house may receive positive support.

10. The dining hall should have a door in the East, North, or West. If the dining room is located towards the South, avoid arches facing West.

11. The dining table should not be round, egg-shaped, hexagonal, or irregular. It is better to use a square or rectangular table. It should not be attached or folded against the wall.

12. Rectangular or square tables are advised because dishes remain stable and do not slide easily. If sufficient space is available, any shape can be used.

13. We have seen many different table shapes in foreign countries, and nothing harmful occurs with them. What matters most is comfort and space.

14. If the table is round and there is limited space, dishes may fall. If you are comfortable and there is enough space, any shape is acceptable.

15. Take care that dishes do not fall while eating. If they fall, cleaning becomes extra work. In some houses (Vastu for house), men also cook, so responsibilities may be shared.

16. Placing water in the Northeast of the dining room is good. The handwash basin should ideally be in the East or North. If these areas are not suitable, it can be placed anywhere close to the dining table.

17. If the room is wide, avoid placing the washbasin in the Southeast or Northwest. If the room is small, place it wherever it fits comfortably.

18. Keeping nature-themed portraits and paintings in the dining room creates a pleasant atmosphere and supports good health.

What Should Not Be Done After Eating?

Seven dangerous actions that should not be done after completing the meal.

1. Do not walk after eating :: Is it true that if we walk 100 steps after eating, we will live 99 years, is this true? The actual truth is that the body is unable to absorb the nutrients in the food we eat in the process of digestion due to the negative action of our walking.

2. Don't go to bed after having the meal. I once read in English that After lunch sleep a while-After suppers walk a mile, but going to bed after having a meal may cause digestion to not go properly, due to which gastrointestinal diseases (gastric and celiac problems) may occur, so best to go to bed after some time.

3. Don't eat fruits After a meal. Eating fruits right after a meal can cause stomach bloating! So fruits can be eaten an hour before or one or two hours after the meal.

4. Do not drink tea, after the meal. Because tea leaves have high acid properties, the food containing protein that we eat may react with acids and cause problems in digestion.

5. Waist belt should not be loosened after completing the meal. Due to loosening of the waist belt while eating, the eaten food may easily slip down and the intestines may be folded or blocked.

6. Do not take bath. Bathing after meal causes excess blood flow to the body, legs and arms, hence less blood flow to the stomach may lead to poor digestion/inflammation of gastrointestinal disease.

7. Do not smoke. Apart from the advice of medical experts, it has also been observed in the experiments of medical experts that the chances of getting cancer are higher due to smoking after meals.

The more you take care of your health, the better your health will be.
