THE LEGEND OF THE WORRY DOLLThe Guatamalan origin of the Muñeca quitapena refers to a Maya princess named "lxmucane." The princess received a special gift from the sun god which would allow her to solve any problem a human could worry about.Worry dolls are given or lent to brooding, anxious, or sorrowful children. The child tells their doll about their sorrows, fears and worries, then hide the doll under their pillow before going to sleep at night. It is said the child's worries transfer to the dolls during the night--with all worries and sorrow taken away and by the next morning so that he or she can move forward, carefree the next day.These small dolls (handmade and dressed in traditional Mayan style) are popular souvenirs sold by nuns and children to tourists.Thank you for your interest!
