Salvinorin A is the active chemical in Salvia. It is the thing which causes our brains to freak out when we smoke Salvia. What we are really after is not the Salvia plant itself, but this chemical; it just so happens that Salvia Divinorum is just about the best source of Salvinorin A available on the market.

A good way to get more of the active ingredient into your system is to smoke a Salvia leaf which has been infused with a concentrated Salvinorin extract.

Extracts are generally labelled as 10x, 20x or 40x strength; this refers to their strength over and above that provided by the leaf on its own. As you can imagine, 40x strength is very, very strong. Even experienced users should be aware that this level can be much stronger than they have tried before. It is also 40 times stronger than nature intended Salvia to be.

The Mazatecs in central Mexico have been using Salvia as a psychoactive stimulant for many years, but they have never felt the need to use any concentrated extract in the pursuit of spiritual awareness.

Why is it, then, that ‘modern’ users of Salvia need much higher strengths? Simply put, non-Mazatec Salvia users are looking for something completely different to those pioneering users. They are looking for an instant trip; complete spiritual and psychedelic gratification from the very start. Whereas the Mazatecs are happy to slowly feel the influence of the Salvinorin chemical, we want it there and then.

Fortunately many Salvia sellers know exactly what we are after and provide the concentrated extracts; many also provide the Salvia Divinorum leaf itself, giving buyers the ultimate in choice. Whether you go for leaves – emulating the use of the Mazatecs – or the concentrated extracts, you are sure to have a very interesting experience with Salvia.

I like to take salvia divinorum i’ve bought online and had shipped directly to my place. Then I play my songs and music I have downloaded for free from Ares. I open my sliding glass door close my eyes and before I know it I have joined the birds on the powerlines in my backyard! Enjoy your Sunday

Hey all! Salvia is the most fantastic stuff I have ever used. My idea of the perfect Valentine’s Night is taking a little Salvia Divinorum I purchased online at SalviaDragon.com and listening to my favorite music and songs I downloaded from aresdestiny.com. I just hope I don’t run-out tonight of salvia Divinorum or else I will have to buy more online 

If you’re new to Salvia, then you’re probably wondering just how you can be sure to be using the drug safely. In itself, there is nothing to suggest that Salvia is anything other than safe, and when used correctly there should be no problems.

There is always the possibility, though, that you can be a danger to yourself when you use Salvia. Salvia trips invariably leave you confused and a little unsure of your surroundings, and if this confusion means that you’re going to pull tables or other furniture over onto yourself, then this could be a problem.

To stop you injuring yourself (or, less likely, others), try and only use Salvia when you’ve got a sitter. A sitter is someone who is sober and who knows that you are going to take Salvia. They know what the likely effects are, and they will be able to stop you injuring yourself.

Other common-sense considerations that you really should bear in mind are whether you are taking any other drugs: mixing Salvia Divinorum with other drugs or even with alcohol can lead to unpredictable results. It is likely that such mixtures will make a bad trip even more terrifying than it needs to be for new or inexperienced users. Don’t do this unless you’re sure of what you’re doing.

People with any kind of mental illness should always, always check with a medical professional before they decide to use any amount of Salvia for any purpose whatsoever.

Practise makes perfect… at least sometimes. If your reaction to the Salvia doesn’t feel ‘right’ after the first try, give it a chance. Try again and see if next time is any better. One of the things about Salvia is the way it gives a different result every single time you use it.

Salvia is a great, safe drug. Use it sensibly.

There is no denying that the women in Phuket are a special breed. Far too often it happens that Western men arrive in Phuket only to find themselves falling in love with the women of the island. While at first it may seem like an impossible challenge, there’s no reason why a Western man can’t get into dating with a Phuket girl. If you’re stuck for ideas about where to start, a Phuket dating service could be the answer.

Meeting Phuket women isn’t rocket science. If you’re out and about then you will meet lots of them. However, maybe you’re new in town and you don’t know anyone yet. If this sounds like you, then a Phuket dating site could be your ticket to meeting a beautiful Phuket girl.

Dating in Phuket is easy. You just have to relax and let it happen. If you get up tight about everything then you will repel the pretty Phuket girls in abundance.

Finding a Phuket dating site is simple enough. You might think that you’ll have slim pickings of the Phuket girls who are also signed up, but there are almost as many women seeking men as there are men seeking women in Phuket. What can we say? People in Phuket like dating.

It’s important to find a Thai girl who is on your wavelength. Take the time to discuss interests and what you want from the relationship. It might be for marriage or just a brief fling.

If you take a bit of time to browse through websites, you’ll find numerous stories about Western men who met their Thai sweetheart through Thailand dating agencies. Not all of these encounters end happily ever after, but a large amount of them do and that should be enough to inspire a bit of confidence in the system.

It is very rare that I read anything sensible about in the news. This week was an exception, and the Salmon Arm Observer gets my thumbs up.

The first point they make is very valid indeed: “Banning drugs gives gangsters another trade item”. Too true. People will still use Salvia, it is just that the sale will go from being openly over the internet or in high street shops to being controlled by gangsters and criminals.

Their next point is equally admirable:

Saliva is non-toxic, non-addictive, and nowhere near enough fun to be habit forming. It is yet to kill anyone, yet junk food kills many times more Canadians every year than all illegal drugs combined.

Likewise alcohol and nicotine, both of which remain illegal despite being more dangerous than Salvia.

This, as the paper wisely points out, is just more fear-mongering and propaganda designed to scare people into believing that the way to solve a drug problem is to make the drug illegal.

Those who think that drugs cannot help society, the article notes, should take half their CD collection and throw it away. The people that made that wonderful music were all largely on drugs, like it or not. When you throw into the mix the simple fact that scientists think they might be able to study more about the human mind using Salvia divinorum, then you really have got your hands on something that can actually make a difference.

To consider banning Salvia because it is dangerous simply defies logic, but it is a logic that most newspapers and media outlets fail to possess. It makes a refreshing change to see at least one article that sees past all the lies and misinformation and is able to interpret the bigger picture. Very well done and thank you to the Salmon Arm Observer in Canada.

Whilst it might seem just those people who enjoying using Salvia Divinorum will be the only ones that object to its criminalization across the US, there are also many researchers and doctors that are opposed to any restriction on its use. These supporters do not themselves use Salvia Divinorum to ‘get high’ or in order to send themselves on a spiritual journey; these people are following a much higher aim.

Researchers know very little indeed about Salvia and about its effects. What they do know is that it is firstly safe, and secondly that it affects the brain in a way not seen before in naturally occurring or synthetic drugs. The temporary changes it imposes on the mind and body might actually be useful in the treatment of various ailments, including such diverse afflictions as cancer, HIV, and various addictions.

Mendelson, a pharmacologist with federal funding who is very interested in the effects of Salvia, says: “Salvia is a totally unique compound, unlike … other hallucinogens. We’ve never seen anything like it before.”

Unfortunately, through a combination of over-zealous media reporting, of point scoring by politicians and law makers, and through some shocking and self-perpetuating misinformation about Salvia Divinorum, many people want to see it banned for good. This has happened already in 13 states, and the near future promises more in the way of control or bans for Sally D.

These bans will make the researchers’ jobs much harder at best, and impossible at worst. The rationale behind the bans does not stand up to any kind of logic at all: this drug is, as far as we know, only possibly good for us. To ban it for the sake of some people just not listening to cold, hard facts is just idiotic.

But hey, what do some of the country’s top scientists know, after all?

Sales of Salvia in Ohio have soared to record highs as local legislators, politicians, law enforcement officers, concerned parents and most definitely Salvia users count down the days to the drug’s impending classification as a schedule 1 drug. It will soon be illegal to buy, use or sell Salvia within Ohio.

As people realize the impending fate of their favorite drug, so sales of the substance soar. People are likely stocking up before the many online Salvia stores are prevented from selling and shipping to anyone in the increasing number of states that are banning the drug. These stockpiles will, of course, in themselves be illegal after the new laws are passed. Sites like SalviaDragon.com are selling huge ‘wholesale’ packs of Salvia Divinorum at surprisingly reasonable prices.

Some online outlets are reporting to be struggling under the weight of these increased orders.

The rationale behind the decision to ban Salvia has never been made clear, and each and every explanation provided is generally lacking in substance, reason and logic. Salvia has never in itself been proved to be harmful in any way, nor has it been proven to be responsible for any deaths or even serious injuries. Despite this politicians and lawmakers – along with those concerned parents who are swayed by the vast volume of unwarranted media attention on the substance – are joining as one to demand the ban of Salvia.

As has been seen with the banning of substances like marijuana and cocaine, legislation does not have a huge affect on the number of people using a drug; what it does do is to drive the sale of drugs underground. Driving an industry such as this only has negative effects for everyone including, but certainly not limited to, the lack of control in the quality of substance distributed and in the lack of proper controls in the people distributing it. Logic does not seem to have played a part in the banning of Salvia.
