Hygieia
(health)

The goddess of health was the daughter of Asclepius and granddaughter of Apollo. Other versions say she was the wife of Asclepius and the daughter of Eros and Peitho.

She was a pure virgin, and even though her main concern was the physical health, she was sometimes associated with mental health as well.
