The Mystical Palo Santo
03/17/25 • 24 min
In this soothing episode of Sleepy Seedlings, we journey to the dry forests of South America, where the mystical Palo Santo tree stands in quiet patience. Known as “holy wood”, its true gift is revealed only after it has fallen, resting for years before releasing its warm, resinous fragrance. For centuries, its sacred smoke has drifted through ceremonies of healing and renewal, carrying with it whispers of transformation, patience, and the unseen rhythms of time.
As the night settles in, let the gentle scent of Palo Santo be a reminder—to slow down, to trust in nature’s quiet unfolding, and to embrace the beauty of rest. With soft storytelling, ancient wisdom, and the hush of the trees, this episode will guide you into deep relaxation, where endings become beginnings and peace lingers like a fading ember in the night. Breathe in, let go, and drift into sleep.
