Palo Santo Sticks – Holy Wood for Cleansing & Energy Clearing

Palo Santo Sticks – Holy Wood. Sacred Smoke. Energy Cleansing.

Palo Santo, meaning "Holy Wood" in Spanish, is a revered mystical tree native to the coast of South America . Related to Frankincense, Myrrh, and Copal, this sacred wood has been used for centuries by Incan and Amazonian shamans in spiritual ceremonies for purification, healing, and energy cleansing .

When burned, Palo Santo releases a distinctive warm, sweet, woody citrus aroma with hints of pine, lemon, and mint . The smoke is known for its ability to clear negative energy, raise vibrations, and create a peaceful, uplifted atmosphere .

Why you need Palo Santo:

• Energy Cleansing – Burn Palo Santo to refresh and elevate the energy of a space or individual after cleansing rituals . It is believed to clear negativity, ward off unwanted energies, and purify the environment

• Spiritual Ceremonies – Used in shamanic and meditation practices to create a sacred, focused atmosphere

How to use Palo Santo:

1. Light – Hold a flame to the end of the stick for a few seconds until it catches

2. Extinguish – Blow out the flame – the stick will smoulder and produce fragrant smoke

3. Cleanse – Waft the smoke around yourself, your space, or your crystals using your hand or a feather

4. Extinguish fully – Press the glowing end into a heat-proof bowl, sand, or ceramic dish until the smoke stops
