I have long wanted to write an article about cleansing your home. I have noticed how in social networks the issue of using natural products to clean our homes and to protect our bodies has increased in an astonishing way.
The people who are involved in the world of aromatherapy day by day are updating themselves on the use of flowers, incense, essential oils, aromatic candles, soaps, to be able to use at home and protect our families.
For a long time, I have been giving recommendations in forums and social networks about the use of Palo Santo, also known as sacred wood since I have had good results and it is one of the natural products that have the greatest properties and benefits when using it at home.
Before giving you my little advice, it is essential that you know that the palo santo Bursera graveolens is a magical tree that grows in the South American area, mainly in the countries of Ecuador and Peru, and can live between 30 to 40 years.
It is believed that the use of this sacred tree is millenary since the ancient shamans or sorcerers of the ancient Inca civilizations used the palo santo for purification rituals and to heal the sick.
On the internet, you can find many stores that sell this product, but you must be careful when purchasing it, you must make sure that your palo santo is genuine and is made from trees that have died naturally in the forest since if you use palo santo of felled trees you will not be able to enjoy the properties and benefits.
Something very curious is that this sacred tree only manifests its multiple properties when it has died naturally and has rested in its natural habitat for at least 2 years. I purchase my palo santo products from companies that have a reforestation program and make use of palo santo in a sustainable and sustainable way.
