Palo Santo (Bursera graveolens)—Palo santo has long been used in traditional practices as a way to create intentional space and moments of reflection. This offering invites you to slow down, reset your environment, and reconnect with yourself through simple ritual.

This may support:

• creating a sense of calm in your space

• marking transitions throughout your day

• grounding your attention and presence

• cultivating intentional moments of pause

Our Palo Santo is ethically and sustainably sourced from Peru in full compliance with regulations set by SERFOR (Peru’s National Forestry and Wildlife Service). The wood is never cut from living trees. Instead, SERFOR surveys and grants permits to local communities to collect only naturally fallen Palo Santo wood. Cutting down Palo Santo trees is strictly prohibited.

Freshly cut Palo Santo does not produce the distinctive aroma it is known for. The wood must rest and cure—often for several years—so that the natural resins fully develop and create the rich scent associated with authentic Palo Santo. All harvesting is supervised and inspected by SERFOR, and export is permitted only after official approval.

By choosing responsibly sourced Palo Santo, you support sustainable practices, protect native forests, and help preserve this sacred tradition for future generations.
