Palo Santo is a mystical tree that grows on the coast of South America and is related to Frankincense, Myrrh and Copal. It is enjoyed by many for its energetically cleansing and healing properties. It is a strong medicine that has been popularized for its heavenly presence in keeping energies grounded and clear. It creates a pleasant, fresh smoke that works well in keeping away mosquitoes and other flying insects. Palo Santo is also traditionally used for relieving common colds, flu symptoms, stress, asthma, headaches, anxiety, depression, inflammation, emotional pain and more.
