Most people don't do Salvia right because they get it and think of using it just like weed.

Be in a relaxed mood in a calm enviornment, and light it up, and hold it all in your breath for a good 20+ seconds, or as long as you possibly can, then exhale and you are immediately in another world. I'd reccomend putting the bong/bowl down before you exhale.

In my honest opinion, having tried every "hard" drug out there, Salvia is without a doubt the most intense one out there, as far as how absolutely mind altering it is, that its almost unbeliveable. Salvia is going right into Schedule I once the gov finds out more about it, and figures out a way to outlaw such an incredibly easy growing and common looking plant.
