Yerba Santa Smudge Bundles & Palo Santo Stick / 4" / Healing & Spiritual Protection

Palo Santo is a mystical tree that grows on the coast of South America and is related to Frankincense, Myrrh and Copal.  In Spanish, the name literally means “Holy Wood”.  It is part of the citrus family and has sweet notes of pine, mint and lemon. Palo Santo is enjoyed by many for its energetically cleansing and healing properties similar to Sage and Cedar.  It is a strong medicine that has been popularized for its heavenly presence in keeping energies grounded and clear.

It provides an uplifting scent that raises your vibration in preparation for meditation and allows for a deeper connection to the Source of all creation.  It is also said that Palo Santo enhances creativity and brings good fortune to those who are open to its magic.

Thanks to its ability of yerba santa to open the path within and communication with “the other world”, it is an excellent purifier, anti depressive and relaxant. Stress, panic attacks, “bad mojo”, negative energy, suffering, sadness, etc., are elements of your inner self that affect your quality of life. Using yerba santa can allow you to achieve a more balanced state, allowing you to become more fully aligned in your mind body experience.

Palo Santo Prayer: “Cleanse my soul, remove the past to help find happiness at last. Fill this place with joy and love. Send blessings from above. Negativity must leave my sacred space. I banish you by the light of my grace. Be gone forever you will obey. Energy of light, shield and protect me day and night. Positive feelings will come near while all others wither and disappear. Thank your cleansing my energy. Amen.”

For the removal of all types of negative energies in the human aura and surroundings. Open the doors or windows, then place the bundle in a ceramic dish, bowl, incense tray, or other non-flammable vessel. Light one end of the sage stick with a match or lighter, let it burn for a few seconds, then blow out the flame to release the smoke. Walk slowly around each room, wafting the smoke in all directions. Smudging is one of the ways to energetically cleanse a space to invite positive energy.

For energetic cleansing, dispelling of negative influences in the spirit realms, purification of the atmosphere, and calming of fiery emotions, arguments, and confrontations. Also, for clearing your body, mind, and spirit of any negativity, stagnation, or energetic disturbances within or surrounding you. 

When smudging a space, you burn plant material. The smoke fills and purifies the environment. As the smoke ascends, our wishes and intentions rise and mingle into the universe, connecting heaven, earth and humanity. Smoke offerings are found in many traditions such as Buddhism, Native American and other spiritual religions. The smoke ceremony creates transformation and blesses a space and the inhabitants.
