This "Holy Wood" has burned for centuries in South America by the Shamans, they believed burning Palo Santo has spiritual and medicinal properties capable of resetting energy that was tainted by negativity or conflict. It also is thought to neutralize issues before they ever start in a person or space. People are looking to alternative ways for health and wellness benefits, that don’t rely on modern medicine’s quick fixes with lasting side effects. The aroma of Palo Santo Wood is nurturing and transformative, used for cleansing of the psychological palate, wiping away negative or stale emotions. The act of cleansing a room of negative energy is called “smudging”, often used in spiritual ceremonies, prayers, rituals or therapy sessions. Shamans believe that Palo Santo has a strong, mystical spirit that continues to live on in the wood long after the tree has fallen, and it will pass on its restorative powers to whoever needs cleansing.
