About Palo Santo & Metaphysical Properties:

-Palo Santo, which means “holy wood” or “wood of the saints”, is a mystical tree that grows on the coast of South America and is related to Frankincense, Myrrh, and Copal.

-Burning Palo Santo sticks is a sacred practice used by Indigenous communities of the Andes to cleanse their space and ward off evil spirits.

-This practice is called smudging - a spiritual practice where you clear your energy fields using a piece of burning Palo Santo or a herb bundle, such as white sage.

-Burning Palo Santo wood creates an uplifting, pleasant, fresh smoke that works miracles in keeping away mosquitoes and other insects.

-It is said that the smell of Palo Santo enhances creativity.


How to Use:

1. First things first when smudging your home, yourself or your crystals open a few windows and doors to help any smoke and negative energy leave easily.

2. Light your Palo Santo stick over your flameproof bowl until a small flame has caught.

3. While holding your Palo Santo over the bowl lightly blow on the flame until it goes out. The Palo Santo will then smoke gently like incense.

4. Walk around your home, carefully using your hands or a feather to waft the smoke into all areas of your space.

5. Keep your intention in mind of what you want to accomplish, such as for example cleansing and protecting your home. Include all small spaces that collect negative energy like corners, windows and behind doors. It’s also good to open cupboards and wardrobes because they can also hold stagnant energy.

*Remember that the goal is to allow a light amount of smoke to move around your space there’s no need to create a thick cloud of smoke!

*You may need to relight the Palo Santo stick to make it around the whole house simply relight it over your flameproof bowl and lightly blow it out as before.

*Remember, smudging is a personal practice and can being done however and whenever you like!
