About The Joyful Heart Foundation

The Joyful Heart Foundation was created by Law & Order: Special Victims Unit actress and advocate Mariska Hargitay with the mission of transforming society’s response to sexual assault, domestic violence, and child abuse, supporting survivors’ healing, and ending this violence forever. Mariska’s goal is to help survivors reclaim lives of hope, possibility and joy, and to build a more just, more compassionate world. Learn more at joyfulheartfoundation.org

A note from Mariska Hargitay:

“At Joyful Heart, we transform the way our society responds to those of us who have experienced harm. One response — which we’re fortunately in charge of and can practice ourselves — is self-care. I use my Heart to Hug Pillow — and have shared them with family and friends — for that very reason: they’re a way of responding to our own needs, on our own terms. The idea is simple but profound, both scientific and intuitive. Gentle weighted pressure helps soothe the mind, body and heart. It’s a gift of healing touch, for ourselves and others, while we work to make a more compassionate world.”

Comforting

Sam and Elliot are the perfect comfort needed during sad moments and just when a little comfort is needed. A bonus is Elliot’s trunk is the perfect size to help support my hand and arm while recovering from shoulder surgery!

Missing my Dog

After putting my beloved dog to sleep, I found I couldn’t sleep well at night. I decided to try a weighted stuffed animal. Charlie, Hugimals Dog, has helped me so much! I tell my other Senior friends…I’m sleeping with a stuffed animal now! Yet they all reply..So What!! I’m just happy to have found Charlie, we both are sleeping well and he is the only dog I need.

Wonderful!

I bought the large heart ❤️ and the cozy factor is ahhh-mazing. It’s very well made, the plush is sumptuous, and the foundation it supports literally warms my heart. I also appreciate the pockets which are an incredibly thoughtful addition. I struggle with temperature dysregulation so having this kangaroo pocket is warm, lowers my anxiety, and also gives me a dopamine hit remembering a hand muff I had as a child. The only reason for the 4 stars is that with my chronic illness and severe arthritis, it can be difficult to maneuver. I think it might be a little too heavy for me and if it was a little lighter I would give this 10 stars ⭐️ . I love the large size and wouldn’t want to go smaller or forgo the fabulous pocket. Maybe in a future model a lighter weight large heart could be created?

I bought Sammy and Quinn as a pair and gave Sammy to my daughter. My good friends daughter was having problems so we gave her Quinn. Both girls LOVE their animals, helps ease their college tensions and really give them an extra oomph. We ordered the heart for my daughter’s other friend and gave it to her now during a rough patch in her life. EVERYONE is so happy with them and really feel the love from their Hugimals. Thanks so much for developing these animals!!!!

Weighted Tribble of Sweet Relaxation

Late diagnosed Autistic here, and I never realized how much my body appreciates weight. This pillow is incredibly cozy and the 10 pounds of weight is the perfect combination that provides instant relaxation. I love the pockets because it adds a natural calming effect. Captain Kirk would be proud!
