Smoking salvia divinorum is just like smoking tobacco in a pipe, but the effect is much stronger that you will feel from any other herb that you can smoke. You can also use a water pipe or even a hookah. Salvia divinorum is now becoming more popular and is being offered in more potent forms. If you want an experience that is less drastic then you should stick to the less expensive product.
Smoking salvia produces two different effects on people that include an out of body experience where you are totally lost, or a lighter feeling such as being high. Those who smoke large amounts or highly potent salvia have experienced moments when they have talked to people as if they were foreign objects, or feel as if time itself has stopped.
Those who have a stable mindset and are in the mood to handle an out of body experience should try salvia divinorum in small amounts so they can learn how to recognize the feeling, and you will also know what to expect. Salvia divinorum is very cheap and is mostly legal, and it isn't addictive. It is best to try small doses with the help of somebody who has experience with salvia and can help you when you use it. As you begin with smaller amounts, be patient and avoid getting anxious and using more since the initial effects can be gradual.
For the time being, Salvia Divinorum is legal. Salvia is an herb that is from the sage plant. It probably is not something you would want to smoke in the car while driving around though. If you have Salvia Divinorum on you, you will probably be arrested, but would get off when it came to court. Treat it like a controlled substance and you should always be safe from inconveniences like court or jail time.
There are two different ways to use Salvia Divinorum, first of which is drinking the extract. This is a highly concentrated and alcoholic dose of salvia that is supposed to be held in your mouth, and absorbed by your tongue, then swallowed. The good part of this method is that you can make sure to get exactly the amount you want, and your 'high' comes on more slowly. However, if you hold the liquid in your mouth too long it can burn your tongue and your mouth, which can sometimes cause peeling and pain. The extract is also much more expensive, so it is usually better to smoke it.
