For some, simply mental comforting will do. For most, however, you need material proof of the inexistence of any reasons for jealousy. Try offering unconditional trust and you shall receive the same.

Honestly, just teach yourself to ignore whatever is bothering you. Or, you can go to the problem and face it. In past experiences, I've learned that facing it is both hard and almost not worth it. I'd just try keeping a distance from whatever is bothering you. It's hard, but you can do it.
