Sustainably-sourced & ethically wildcrafted Palo Santo sticks . The heartwood of Palo Santo is used in aromatherapy, meditation, energetic purification of space (a.k.a. smudging), preparing tea, and as an effective repellent for mosquitoes. The uplifting and pleasantly aromatic smoke enhances the vibration of any environment, facilitates creativity, and attracts positive energy for those open to its magic!
5 Palo Santos Sticks included in package.
Sticks approx. 4 inches x 0.5 inches in size.**
**Please note stick sizes (i.e. length and width) do vary slightly from batch-to-batch due to the hand-split nature of the product.
***All of our Bursera graveolens products are cut from the heartwood of naturally fallen trees & produced in strict accordance with governmental guidelines regulating the collection, processing, & global distribution of Palo Santo. We support responsible, regenerative sourcing practices, & contribute to active reforestation efforts to ensure a long-term supply of the Bursera graveolens tree for future generations. Sustainably sourced from Peru.
Palo Santo Incense Sticks
Light the end of the stick until there is a small flame. Knowing that it may take up to 45 seconds of holding a flame to it, we recommend using a candle.
Once lit, let the Palo Santo burn for 10-20 seconds then blow out so only smoke remains. Then use the smoke to cleanse your space by painting the air with it. Then place your stick in a Palo Santo holder or fireproof bowl until the smoke ceases naturally.
Each stick can be relit several dozen times and Palo Santo ash can be sprinkled on top of plant-soil as a natural nutrient boost.
As with any flame, or lit item, take caution when burning.
Bursera graveolens is a non-endangered species in the Burseraceae family, a close relative of frankincense.
At Bursera, we only source trees that have died naturally and have been resting on the forest floor for several years. Our ethical SERFOR-certified harvesting process ensures that no living trees are ever cut down, period. Not only does this help preserve Palo Santo, it leads to the potent, effective, and premium quality that is expected of all Bursera products.
