Palo Santo, meaning “holy wood”, is a tree found throughout Central and South America. Palo Santo sticks are used to combat negative energy and cleanse spaces of negativity and ill intentions. Unlike many other smudging materials, palo santo is fragrant in its raw form and does not necessarily need to be burned for you to enjoy the sweet, woodsy scent. Palo Santo is said to help dissipate agitated and harmful energy in a space, while also bringing in positive healing energies.
