Tips for Beating Chronic Health Anxiety?

I have had chronic health anxiety for Alittle over a year now that pertains to mainly cardiac stuff only. and even after checking all of the facts and talking to therapists, I can’t seem to get over it. Does anyone have any good tips that you were taught to help beat this or atleast suppress it? Thanks!

It's very hard rocco. I've had health anxiety thinking I had a brain tumor or als. You need to try to distract yourself no matter how hard it is. Coming out of this is so difficult but you have to understand these things are very rare. Stop googling Google hypochondria instead

can I ask what symptoms you had that you thought were a brain tumor? Cause I've had some like dizziness, weird eye things, head heaviness. But I'm certain that they are just anxiety
