Palo Santo, which is Spanish for “Holy Wood”, is found in the tropical forests of South America and is used for incense, aromatic oil and indigenous medicine. It is burned for its energetically cleansing and healing properties. Traditionally, Palo Santo is used as a natural remedy for colds and flus, but it is also known to relieve asthma, headaches, anxiety, depression and reduce inflammation.
