The ancient practice of Shamanism teaches that plants have spirits and that the spirit can be a strong medicine. The Shaman turns to the spirit of the plant and lets this spirit do the healing. The spirit of the Palo Santo tree carries a wisdom that enables the smoke of this wood to heal people but it is a delicate process that requires great respect for the tree. It has been burned by Shamans for centuries to clear negativity, attract positive vibrations, and allow the naturally fragrant smoke of this sacred woodtoenter the energetic fields. It also enhances         meditation and concentration. These cones are    extremely unique in that they are not held together by any chemical or isolated oils, but are a rare blend of 100% natural ingredients.
