Salvia divinorum
The botanical name Salvia divinorum means "Sage of the Diviners". A common effect
is the sense of communication with spirit worlds. It can produce an out-of-body experience and reveal worlds to you that you never imagined existed. The effects of salvia divinorum are unlike anything else you have ever experienced. It is best to smoke the leaf material in a pipe. When smoked, the first effects are noticed within 1 minute, rapidly developing to a peak which lasts 5 - 10 minutes, and then gradually diminishing over the next 20 - 30 minutes. From beginning to end, the entire experience lasts 30 minutes to one hour. With a pipe you can draw a flame directly onto the leaf material so that it burns quite hot. Don't smoke it alone. Have someone there to keep an eye on you. Each and every person has a unique and different experience with salvia divinorum. A lot of it has to do with where you are at and your intentions. Sometimes too much information can create expectations. It is basically pretty simple. Try it if you like and remember that you are dealing with a very powerful plant.

He effects of Peyote have been described as very dream-like, drifting, almost a delirium-type state during the first couple of hours. Many users say that a peyote high lends itself more to inner reflection and contemplation.Some people report powerful experiences from as few as three or four Peyote buttons. More often users consume 12 to 15 buttons, and eating more than two dozen is not unheard of. Eating is definitely not fun it tastes very bitter. Chew the cactus to a pulp and then wash it down with some liquid. The high begins coming on some 45 minutes after ingesting. it is important to boil the cacti for several hours.

Yopo There are four species of the Anadenanthera genus, the Peregrina species is called Yopo or Jopa and the snuff is named Cohoba. The other three species Colubrina, Excelsa and Macrocarpa also contain the same active chemicals only the snuff is often called Vilca.
