I can try meditating, but i know that years ago when I quit it did not help. But I was also in 12-step recovery, so maybe it will be different now.
Well try the 5 deep breaths technique and see if it has any effect, rather than full on meditating (unless you think that will help).
Do the cravings come and go, and can you see any pattern? It might not be a time thing; maybe it's to do with your emotional state.
Try eating something very digestible like ice-cream or whatever you like that you can get down, or even a sugary drink.
Everyone has their own methods, and a lot of it is trial and error until you find something that works for you. I guess my suggestion is to make it a priority. You might even consider seeing a doctor if there are medications that help.
