Anyway, at least it was a nice gentle introduction to the drug rather than just getting dumped headlong into some ego-shattering dissociative mindfuck, haha.

I recommend trying it again. It really is possible to achieve a breakthrough with salvia. You just have to respect it and take it as a learning experience, not as something to party on. That is the mistake a lot of people make since you just smoke it like weed and it is legal. Salvia is actually one of the most potent psychedelics available to man, and for good reason.
Be calm and open when taking it next time. Anything could happen. Many people speak of it as "Lady Salvia" allowing you access to its knowledge if she "senses" you are ready. I take this as, if you have the right mindset and are "ready" the drug can access different parts of your brain that you might instinctively be blocking. Get a bong, load it up and take it one rip. I promise it isn't too harsh...for some reason with the water filtering it, it is actually quite pleasant to take in (for me anyway...weed is way more harsh imo). Let it sit in your lungs for a minute or so, exhale, and prepare for a journey.
