Worry dolls give you a concrete, low-tech way to “hand over” your worries.

Speaking the worry out loud + placing the doll under the pillow acts as a simple emotional support tool: it normalises feelings, creates distance from the worry, and signals to the brain that it’s safe to rest.

What is it made of?

Can it go under the pillow?

Is this a toy?
It’s a ritual keepsake, not for rough play. Contains small parts. Keep away from children under 3.
