Dr. Nick Notes
Palo Santo provides a high vibration oil, a seemingly precious concentrate from the dried wood essence which is typically lit to release it's cleansing fragrance. Vaporizing Palo Santo oil brings a clarity into the mind's eye, relaxing the system with a cool overindulgence of sweet flavor. Diffusing Palo Santo essential oil softens an area and prepares participants for ceremony.
The fragrance of the Palo Santo essential oil is birthed from the inside of the decaying dead tree - when the tree dies, the fragrance from the wood shifts into a sweet, radiant concentrated scent over about two years. As the dead wood ages, the fragrance matures and the essential oil concentrates in the wood - Palo Santo must naturally die and age to release its highest expression of Palo Santo oil. With increased age since a tree's passing, the quality improves (ie. 2-10 years).
Nature really knows how to provide her own essence best!
