12 Worry Doll Pouches 2.5" with Six 1" Guatemalan Worry Dolls in Each Bag

Description: What are Worry Dolls? Worry Dolls, also known as Trouble Dolls, are a type of folk art handmade by the Mayan people, traditionally from Guatemala but also crafted by the Incan and Aztec cultures. These tiny dolls are believed to relieve stress and worries. Each night, you tell your worries to a doll and place it under your pillow. By morning, your worries are said to vanish into your dreams.Origins and Cultural Significance The Mayan people believed in the Goddess Ixmucane, a maternal figure among the 13 creator gods, who could alleviate their problems. Worry dolls were made in her honor. This tradition has been passed down and adopted by many cultures, becoming popular worldwide.Varieties and Uses Worry dolls typically range from half an inch to three inches tall. They are too small to be considered worry dolls if they can't fit under a pillow. Despite their size, they are also made into earrings, keychains, headbands, magnets, bags, and other accessories. The distinctive handmade look, with traditional Ikat fabric outfits, makes them popular among collectors and doll enthusiasts. In central Guatemala, worry dolls are often sold in small cloth pouches with a drawstring or in simple wooden boxes, typically accompanied by a brief description of their use and meaning.How They Are Made Worry dolls are crafted from materials like sticks, wood, cardboard, string, wool, wire, and cotton fabric remnants. Traditional Indigenous fabrics, created on handmade back-strap looms, are often used. In Guatemala, this fabric is known as Jaspeado, or Jaspe for short.Beyond Worry Dolls Using worry dolls can be a comforting practice, but talk therapy is also a valuable tool for managing anxiety and intense emotions. Many child psychiatrists use worry dolls to help children express their feelings. Adults also find comfort in using worry dolls to manage stress and remember cherished memories.
