Palo santo, also known as "holy wood", or the "wood of the saints", is a fragrant wood that has been used for centuries in spiritual and healing practices. The wood comes from the Bursera graveolens tree, which is native to South America, particularly in countries such as Peru, Ecuador, and Brazil.
 
After setting a positive intention, as the smoke from Palo Santo wood enters our personal energy field (the space around us) the tree spirit in this wood clears away negative thoughts, unfortunate situations, wards off evil spirits, and helps to re-establish peace and balance. It also attracts positive energy and good fortune.
