It is defined as the mental state characterized by nervousness, sense of inappropriate fear, anticipating a negative event or outcome. It often comes from a perceived fear or irrational fear. Associated past experience poses itself as a threat to the future events, because of which constant tension and restlessness are exhibited by the individual.
Research suggests that anxiety and stress are associated with an increased risk of having a heart attack. While worrying can be a constructive experience if it centered on problem solving that a person can be in charge of, worrying appears to be exceedingly damaging if the focus is on self accusation patterns and on social concerns.
A “joyful heart” may prove to be the most powerful medicine against heart disease and for this; anxiety and worry should be just away.

They exhibit the qualities of vayu or air element like when vata gets disturbed it becomes fizzy and restless. Similarly for a vata constitution individual, anxiety and restless mind pattern sets in where they are unable to settle or relax.
