Our Palo Santo Essential Oil is organically crafted and steam-distilled from the aged heartwood of ethically wildcrafted Bursera graveolens, sourced from the mountains of Ecuador. Often called “holy wood,” Palo Santo has been treasured for centuries for its cleansing, healing, and spiritually uplifting properties.
Traditionally, the smoke of Palo Santo has been used in rituals to clear negative energy from a person or space—much like the smudging practices associated with White Sage. Belonging to the same botanical family (Burseraceae) as Frankincense and Myrrh, Bursera graveolens is also valued for enhancing meditation, promoting relaxation, calming the mind, and supporting emotional balance.
Palo Santo has a rich ethnobotanical history, revered by Indigenous cultures for its purifying powers. The most potent essential oil comes from wood that has naturally matured after the tree has died. During this aging process, resin moves into the heartwood, developing the characteristic chemistry that gives Palo Santo its distinctive, powerful aroma. The resulting essential oil offers deeply grounding, soothing, and centering qualities—making it an ideal companion for emotional harmony, mindfulness, and spiritual upliftment.
