Palo Santo Incense Sticks
What is palo santo?
Palo santo, also known as “sacred wood”, is an arboreal species whose wood is recognized for its intense scent with a slightly citrus touch. Therefore, it is used either in its natural state or as incense for energy purposes, as it helps to create the feeling of harmony, peace and tranquility.
However, what characterizes palo santo is that its properties begin to appear when the tree dries and dies. In other words, it takes a few years for the wood to start developing the components that generate its characteristic smell.
What are the benefits of palo santo?
These are the main benefits of palo santo:
– It repels negative energies: Sometimes we feel a dense environment, loaded with «bad vibes» and from which we just want to escape. In this case, the palo santo is responsible for cleaning the environment and attracting positive energies.
– It has anti-inflammatory properties. Actually, from the palo santo wood you get an oil that has been proven to have the ability to reduce inflammation, among other therapeutic properties.
– It relieves nervous tension. In line with the previous point, this wood has the ability to reduce levels of stress and anxiety.
– It is ideal for meditation. Due to the aforementioned properties, it is widely used in meditation, yoga and reiki sessions, since it helps the relaxation of the mind. Likewise, its aroma is a favorite for aromatherapy.
How to use palo santo?
– Take one of the pieces by the tip, burn the other and spin it until the ember forms. After about 30 seconds, turn off the flame and place it in a suitable container.
– Don’t get too close to feel its scent because you might not only burn, but the smoke can irritate the airways.
– Be patient that in a matter of seconds your perfume will have flooded the entire room.
If you are looking to purify your environment, then you should take the container with palo santo sticks to all spaces of the house. Ideally, the windows should remain closed so that smoke penetrates every corner and ends the bad energies. However, do not stay in any room full of smoke because it is harmful to health. After a while, you can ventilate the environment.
