Worry dolls are small handmade dolls that originate from the indigenous people of Guatemala and Mexico. According to legend, when a person is feeling worried or anxious, they can tell their worries to the worry doll and place it under their pillow while they sleep. The doll is said to take on the worries of the person, allowing them to sleep peacefully and wake up with a clear mind.

Traditionally, worry dolls are made from wood or wire, and are dressed in colorful clothing made from scraps of fabric. They are typically only a few centimeters tall, and are designed to be carried around in a small pouch or box.

In recent years, worry dolls have become popular as a form of mindfulness and stress relief. Some people use them as a physical reminder to let go of their worries and focus on the present moment. Others use them as a tool for meditation or visualization, imagining that their worries are being taken away by the doll.

Overall, worry dolls are a simple and charming way to connect with traditional indigenous culture and to practice mindfulness and stress relief techniques.
