Growing naturally in certain parts of Mexico, salvia is a plant that still holds many mysteries. It's exact history is unknown. No one can be sure when it was first discovered or used. Its mind altering effects have made it the centerpiece of many spiritual practices. Shamanistic cultures have used the plant when preforming many rituals. Salvia was first studied by a scientist researching shamanistic societies in the 1930s. Its exact properties were not figured out until the 1990s by a team of scientists in the United States. Even botanists have not yet been able to figure out its exact genetic structure. Smoking salvia is the most common way that it is used. Users can smoke the plant with tobacco or rolled in cigarette paper. It can also be ingested or chewed. The intensity of the effects will depend on the potency of the plant. Different companies offer different types and it is important to be familiar with the differences. The effects of the plant are much like other hallucinogens. Uncontrollable laughter, feeling at one with the universe, and feelings of motion are common. The plant will also effect your mood. Some people feel very happy on it while others become lethargic. Like any substance, it will depend on a person's body chemistry. There are some legal issues concerning the plant. It is just starting to become controversial and bans are being put in effect. It is still legal in many parts of the United States and much of the world. Online retailers sell the plant and it can be easily purchased on the internet. Salvia can be a unique experience. Those who use it claim spiritual insight and love its spiritual properties. It is important to use caution when using this plant for the first time. Have a friend with you and do only a small amount at first. Salvia, when used responsibly, can be a wonderful activity.
