Where does Palo Santo come from?

Freshly landed from South America, Palo Santo, in other words “Sacred Wood”, is an incense that is born in the heart of the sap of Bursera graveolens , a tree that is as special as it is remarkable. The harvest of the sacred wood is done with the greatest of precautions since the land covered by these plantations is extremely protected; either by the local arborists or by the great shamans. Indeed, these spiritual guides attach particular importance to this bark which was once used by the Inca populations. In addition to its purifying properties, shamans use this incense for their spiritual awakening and chakra rebalancing sessions.

Did you know ? It is necessary to wait almost 4 years after the death of Bursera Graveolens to extract its wood. It is this detail that gives all the wisdom to this fumigation tool and its mystical properties.

How to use the Palo Santo on a daily basis?

Palo Santo wood has many virtues that you can easily benefit from on a daily basis, to promote a harmonious atmosphere, relax you and attract positive energies to you.
