How are the effects of smoking salvia?

If you're looking for a stress reliever similar to marijuana, salvia is not it. Salvia is a very unique drug, but its effects can be compared to lsd, with small but noticeable bodily effects and mental distortions present at low doses/concentrations, and full blown out of body trips when a lot of salvia is smoked or you smoke the highly concentrated extracts. If you're looking for a relaxant you're more likely to be happy with a plant like Kratom or Kanna both of which are perfectly legal to buy, sell, and use. A good list of legal, natural, highs and their effects can be found at www.erowid.org in the Plants section.
