Simply pour it in the bowl. A half a gram of potent salvia should get you in a visionary state, if you take it in three large pulls... be sure to hold each in no less then twenty seconds, more if your lungs are strong... BTW salvia is not a trip drug, don't expect a bunch of wild colors and schematics... It's a very serious entheogen, and you should only use it with the desire to explore conciousness.
