Palo Santo, Holy Wood, can be used as a spiritual remedy for purifying and cleansing. Palo Santo works much like sage, however it has a natural woody scent which can be more agreeable and less over whelming.  Simply ignite one end of the stick and then extinguish flame. Fan the lit side of the Palo Santo and slowly walk through the area that needs cleansing, giving good thoughts to the Universe and rejecting the negative energies in the space. When finished, set the Palo Santo on a glass dish and it will fizzle out on it's own. Burn everyday to keep a space clean or every now and again when your surrounding seems grim.
