236. Releasing the Urge to Google Symptoms: A Health Anxiety Meditation

Description:

Do you ever feel that irresistible pull to Google your symptoms, hoping to calm your health fears, but ending up in a spiral of worst-case scenarios? You’re not alone.

This guided meditation is designed specifically for those moments when health anxiety tries to convince you that searching online will bring relief. Instead of feeding the cycle, you’ll learn how to:

  • Recognize the urge to Google without acting on it
  • Use your breath as an anchor when anxiety rises
  • Visualize the urge as a passing wave instead of a command
  • Ground yourself back into the safety of the present moment
  • Replace anxious searching with calming affirmations

This is a practical, gentle meditation you can return to whenever you feel stuck in the symptom-search loop. Press play, take a deep breath, and remind yourself, you don’t need the internet to feel safe.
