The persistent feeling of health anxiety, despite being physically well, is often linked to an imbalance in Vata dosha, which governs the nervous system and the mind. This overactivity of Vata can lead to overthinking and unnecessary worry. I recommend Brahmi and Ashwagandha to calm the mind, reduce anxiety, and stabilize Vata. Jatamansi is also beneficial for its grounding and calming effects. Practicing daily Abhyanga (oil massage) with warm sesame oil can help calm the nervous system. Incorporate mindfulness practices like meditation and Pranayama (breath control) to bring mental clarity and reduce overthinking. Additionally, following a Vata-pacifying diet—warm, nourishing foods—and maintaining a regular routine can help balance the mind and body. Consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized regimen is advised.

I totally understand where you're coming from. These kind of thoughts can really get to you. In Ayurveda, we often see these feelings as a sign that there might be some imbalance in your mind, specifically with the vata dosha. Vata, which is connected with movement and air, when out of balance can cause restlessness, worry, and anxiety.
Firstly, I'd recommend trying to ground yourself. Eating warm, nourishing foods can really help. Stuff like sweet potatoes, oats, and soups are great. Also, cooking them with spices like cumin, turmeric, and ginger can be beneficial. Also, make sure to avoid cold, raw foods and caffeine, as they might just amp up the vata.
It's also good to work on your daily routine. Create a consistent schedule – same wake up time, same bedtime. This stable rhythm can comfort the mind. Try some gentle yoga or even slow-paced breathing exercises. Soma-style breathing – slow inhale, even slower exhale – calms the nervous system.
If you can, find a quiet moment in your day for a little self-massage, using warm sesame oil. It's not only soothing, but helps in grounding your restless thoughts. Doing this regularly can really make a difference.
Mindfulness or meditation is another thing you could try. It doesn’t have to be fancy. Just sit quietly for a few minutes, focus on your breath and notice any toughts without judging them.
If the feeling persists or if it becomes more intense, it's always good to talk with a professional counselor or a healthcare provider. They can guide you if there's anything more that needs attention. Remember it's about finding balance, not eliminating every worry. Stay gentle with yourself.
