Description
Palo Santo is a tree native to South America and has been used for medicinal and spiritual purposes by the region's indigenous people for centuries. It is most commonly burned as incense, with the smoke being believed to carry away negative energy or promote relaxation.
When the wood is burned, it gives off a dense, fragrant smoke. Palo Santo is used in rituals to cleanse and ward off negative energies (Palo Santo is related to frankincense, myrrh, and copal trees, three other powerful energy cleansers and protectors). The wood is also used to communicate with the divine, heal on the physical and spiritual levels, and improve concentration and mental focus during meditation.
