Palo Santo
Devine Femina is dedicated to supplying the most ethically and sustainably harvested Palo Santo we can find. To this end, we support family owned growers who are dedicated to actively conserving Palo Santo's native environmental habitat.
Our Palo Santo is never cut from live trees. Instead, the farmers we purchase from harvest and produce their products in strict accordance with governmental guidelines regulating the collection, processing, and global distribution of Palo Santo. They only harvest the natural heartwood from fallen years-old trees.
We support responsible, regenerative sourcing practices, that contribute to active conservation + reforestation, which allows for the long-term sustainable management of the dry forests, as well as the ethical economic empowerment of the native communities who steward their native forestlands.
So what is Palo Santo?
Palo Santo (Bursera Graveolens) is a sacred wood that has been used by the indigenous people of Ecuador and Peru in ceremony, ritual, and healing for many centuries.
This sacred wood, which is related to the frankincense, copal, and myrrh species of trees, offers up sweet, woody notes of mint, lemon, and pine. This smoke has numerous uses, including:
Driving away mosquitos and other flying insects (this is one of its primary uses in Peru and Ecuador)
Freshening the air in enclosed spaces
Relieving symptoms of congestion & inflammation
Clearing energies that do not support ones highest good
Focusing attention
Quieting the mind
Relieving stress and anxiety
Purifying self
Purifying unwanted and stagnant air
By purchasing Palo Santo from Devine Femina, you are making a purchase that supports the conservation of Palo Santo and the dry forests in which it grows, as well as supporting the indigenous communities that live in and take care of these forests.
Our Palo Santo is available in two forms (types). Our Palo Santo Wood Sticks and our Mini Palo Santo Incense Sticks.
Wood Sticks - 1.5 to 2 oz cut wood. approx 5-6 sticks
Incense Sticks - Nine (9) 3-4 inch incense sticks. Each stick burns approximately 45 minutes.
To use Palo Santo Wood Sticks, light the tip of one stick. Allow wood to smoulder. The flame should extinguish itself, if not, gently fan. Try not to blow out the flame. Allow the smoke to rise for a few seconds, set your intention on the smoke and then gently wave the stick over your body if cleansing your own energy, or around your room. To put the smoulder out, bury the burning stick in sand. Can be used until the stick burns all the way down.
*Palo Santo Wood Sticks, not incense, can be made into a tea to help relieve congestion and inflammation as well as soothe the mind and emotions.
