Description
Palo Santo (Bursera graveolens) is an intensely aromatic
tree native to South America. A relative of frankincense and myrrh, Palo Santo
has a sweet scent with hints of vanilla, mint, and citrus. Its name translates
to “Holy Wood” in Spanish, and has been used by saints and shamans alike for
centuries. When burned, Palo Santo releases a fragrant smoke which many
believe to uplift energy and aid in spiritual purification. Use it to promote
calm, relieve stress, and dispel misfortune. Burn it before meditation to
clear thoughts or focus concentration. Thank you for choosing Alternative
Imagination Palo Santo. Our Palo Santo is sustainably sourced from the dry
tropical forests of South America, where it is gathered from naturally fallen
trees – never from living trees, which harms the tree and would contribute to
deforestation. Each bag may contain hand-cut pieces and milled pieces. The
hand-cut brings a more natural look and feel to the incense while the milled
uses more of the wood to reduce waste. There is no difference in burning time
or aroma when it comes to how the wood is cut. Due to the natural variations
of wood, please expect some differences in size, density, coloration, and
aroma intensity in your incense bundle. Burning Instructions: Hold Palo Santo
over an open flame, tilting the end down at a 45 degree angle. Once lit, let
the wood burn visibly for one minute, relighting as necessary. Blow out the
Palo Santo stick and allow to smolder. Because of Palo Santo’s particular
resinous quality, the embers may self extinguish after a few minutes. This
means the wooden incense can be relit and enjoyed many times. 20 pieces of
