Palo Santo (Bursera graveolens)
    Palo Santo comes from the same botanical
family as Frankincense, although it is found in
South America. Like Frankincense, Palo Santo
is known as a spiritual oil, with a deep-rooted
tradition in which ir was used by the Incas to
puri$, and cleanse rhe air of negative energies
and for good luck. It is used in South America
to repel mosquitoes, for fevers, infecrions, and
skin diseases. It is currently used by shamans of
the Andes in curing ceremonies. Even its Spanish
name refects how highly this oil was regarded:
pall santo means "holy or sacred wood."
Note: Constituents can vary depending on
    whether the wood is haruested from coastal or
   inland areas and ifthe trunk is red or white.
