When health anxiety takes over, it feels impossible to trust your body — or your thoughts.
In this episode, we’re talking about why health anxiety spirals happen, how it tricks you into worst-case thinking, and gentle ways to start breaking the cycle. Whether you’re stuck in Googling symptoms, checking your body, or feeling constant worry about your health — you’re not alone, and you’re not broken.
You’ll learn:
✔️ Why health anxiety feels so convincing
✔️ How reassurance-seeking keeps you stuck
✔️ The sneaky ways health anxiety shows up (like catastrophising and body hyperawareness)
✔️ Simple therapist-backed strategies to slow the spiral
✔️ How to start trusting yourself and your body again
You deserve peace — and it starts with understanding what your anxiety is trying to protect you from.
