Sacred Tree Keepers / Community Portal
Sacred Tree Keepers is a private community and learning portal for seekers walking the path of plant-spirit healing, Master Tree Dieting, integration, and service to the Web of Life.
The community gives members one place to study, practice, integrate, and stay connected to the work over time. Inside the portal, members access foundational teachings, live practice calls, recordings, community spaces, preparation resources, integration support, and future pathways into deeper work, including advanced study to prepare for carrying a Tobacco altar in integrity.
This is the virtual home base for the global STK community.
01 / Why This Exists
Many seekers enter ceremonial healing work without enough structure, context, or understanding of integration. It can be challenging to weave the powerful experiences we undergo in ceremony into rudimentary nature of our daily lives.
Pop psychology internet culture trains us to treat healing, practice and ritual as productivity-oriented personal improvement or spiritual life-style add-ons.
STK honors a more traditional approach, centering our work on right relationship with the body, our communal council, individual soul purpose & the Web of Life herself.
The portal is designed to be a clean, virtual temple space to keep our work organized and accessible, holding a boundary with the noise of the open internet. It is not a social media group, a content archive or coaching platform.
02 / What Membership Includes
As a STK member, you receive access to the private portal, including:
03 / The Monthly Practice Rhythm
Twice each month, members gather for live Primordial Breath practice. These calls are open to all community members and provide a regular structure for embodiment, nervous system regulation, and shared practice.
Members can join from anywhere in the world and share in a web of good humans doing the work together across the globe.
Primordial Breath is one of the foundational practices of STK. It trains the body to hold activation, regulate energy, and build capacity for deeper plant-spirit work.
Community Calls take place at 5pm ET on the first and third Mondays of each month.
04 / The Path
The STK path is structured around practice, study, preparation, integration, connection and service. Members begin with foundational teachings and regular practice and, over time, may enter deeper study through integration programs, various forms of Tobacco work, advanced Primordial Breath studies, accelerated embodiment studies, community council and Guardianship training.
Just like the traditional modes of spiritual training found in every culture on Earth, the STK path is not rushed. It exists to serve seekers in their mission to grow capacity, develop wisdom, and integrate ceremony into daily routine, through the cultivation of power in right relationship to life, soul & community.
A central question of the STK path is:
What is life asking to become through me?
05 / Honor Codes
The STK community is held by eight Honor Codes:
These are the shared standards we hold as we rise collectively. These codes do not originate from a conversation with ChatGPT or a Google Search. The STK honor codes represent the lived wisdom of the years of study, practice and values held by our communal heart. They guide how members communicate, take responsibility, repair conflict, hold boundaries, work with power, and participate in the shared field of council—centering and guarding the Beauty Way.
06 / Teacher Trees and Tobacco
Oak supports strength, selfhood, stability, and service.
Birch supports emotional healing, renewal, and rebirth.
Metasequoia supports long memory, soul perspective, and purpose.
Prayer with Tobacco is central to the STK Lineage.
Tobacco is central to the STK lineage, teaching seekers how to bring desire, speech, power, and healing back into right relationship with soul & stand at the center of the web of life. It structures the path, weaving interior prayer and deep diet work, individual healing and community council and maturing personal spiritual experience into embodied service.
07 / 2026 Integrated Pipe Diet
The Integrated Pipe Diet is the first live medicine container offered through the STK portal. It is a one-month deep dive focused on working with the sacred Tobacco Pipe through daily practice, practical instruction, community accountability, and Primordial Breath.

08 / IPD: The Pipe as Universe & Body
In Black Elk’s account of the Sacred Pipe, the pipe contains all of the powers and beings of the universe. Prayer with the pipe is therefore understood as prayer for and with the whole of life. This is akin to an Osage teaching that understands the pipe as an image of the practitioner’s body: mouth, neck, and spine. The pipe is not simply an object used to produce smoke. It is a physical structure through which breath, prayer, and intention are directed.
The 2026 Integrated Pipe Diet is focused on training seekers to hold a sacred pipe in a way that lives in balance with the body, respects the power contained within the pipe and opens pathways to deeper understanding how Tobacco’s medicine moves.
09 / IPD: The One-Month Container
From the Full Moon in September to the Full Moon in October, participants will complete a daily meditation with the Tobacco Pipe, followed by a Primordial Breath practice to ground the power of the medicine taken into the body through the pipe.
10 / IPD: Responsibility & Readiness
Participation in the 2026 Integrated Pipe Diet requires respect for self and the medicine, honest communication, disciplined adherence to the ritual structure of the container, and willingness to follow the community’s Honor Codes and boundaries.
During the one-month IPD, participants must follow the Integrated Lifestyle Boundaries. These include refraining from sex or engaging with erotic energy, ingesting mind-altering substances or other medicines, sitting in ceremonies outside the container, and eating certain foods.
These boundaries are mandatory during the 2026 IPD and are not suggestions. The full Integrated Lifestyle Boundaries must be reviewed before participating.
11 / IPD: Sourcing Pipe & Medicine
It is not required to be Nicotiana rustica, but this is highly recommended. Peruvian Mapacho is generally the easiest to obtain online in Europe and the United States. Neutral US-grown Nicotiana rustica can also be obtained online.
It is not an advanced practitioner qualification. Deeper training in the STK path unfolds through further diets, sustained relationship, demonstrated readiness, and service over time.
This community is for seekers who want a serious, grounded place to study, practice, integrate, and stay connected to plant-spirit work over time.
Beyond the community portal, STK holds advanced pathways in Tobacco work, Master Tree dieting, diet facilitation, and practitioner maturation. These pathways are not open as general courses.
They unfold through readiness, relationship, completion of prior work, and demonstrated integrity over time. The community portal is the first point of entry into that larger path.
If you are ready to enter the STK portal, begin the foundational practices, and participate in the launch of this new community, you are invited to join.
