THE ANCIENT ARE OF SMUDGING WITH PALO SANTO
— By Katie Walker
Come and bask in the wonders of the ancient art of smudging. True to its name, this practice is all about cleansing and purifying. Our ancestors have used it for centuries, and it's no secret why. By burning herbs, we can create scented smoke that transforms our physical and spiritual surroundings, bringing peace, harmony, and balance to all the corners of our lives. One particular wood that stands out is Palo Santo, a South American holy wood that's gaining popularity as a smudging ritual.
Its cleansing and purifying properties elevate its spiritual benefits, making it a favorite for inducing a sense of calm and tranquility. Remember, when you practice smudging, take the time to carefully choose the wood or herbs that align with your intentions. Whether you go for one wood or herb bundle or a powerful combination of different ones, let your senses guide you and pave the way towards your desired outcome.
