Murray & Landman's Authentic Palo Santo Water

Palo Santo

Centuries ago, Inca shamans and healers from the Andes Mountains propagated its purifying and protective gift.

Among the Maskoy Indians it is believed that the smoke from a bonfire with Palo Santo, drives away evil spirits from the village (the clarity with which its flames manifest themselves confers this).

Unlike other plants or trees from which incense is traditionally extracted, Palo Santo requires only to light a small piece of dry wood to release a column of smoke that ends up enveloping the atmosphere.

To this aromatic smoke released by the wood is attributed the ability to increase vibrations in the body, so it is recommended to use it at the time of starting a meditation. It has a great power to release tensions related to stress and depression.

Palo Santo is so rich in properties that each part of the tree can be used for different purposes, including depurative, sedative, antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, diuretic and anti-carcinogenic functions, it releases tensions related to stress and depression.

On a metaphysical level, certain groups consider it an effective repellent of negative energies.

It should be noted that its benefits can only be enjoyed after 4 to 10 years have elapsed since its trunk dies.

Generally, Palo Santo collectors gather only the wood they find on the ground, coming from trees that have died naturally. This gives it a different kind of soul, one that gives us the gift of everything absorbed by the tree in the forest, and allows us to apprehend these wonders through that delicate bridge that is built between it and us: its aroma.
