Bowser’s Peace Sanctuary is a judgment-free, safe place to experience, connect, and heal with nature. Here you will find a chance to sit with the spirit that is nature and Mother Earth, and some of her creatures. Our experience is that this connection is vital to well-being, and we are creating a peaceful place where people can experience a guided tour to meet Bowser, the American Black Bear who shares his amazing spirit to help us all contemplate a different perspective. You can also meet, feed, and get lost in the powerful presence of Billy & Bambi the American Bison, as well as several horses, and our wonderful pack of Great Danes.
We are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization providing programming with a mission to connect individuals back to nature, inspire hope, awaken new perceptions, and encourage gratitude and living a meaningful life.
Join us, meet Bowser and celebrate the joy and serenity of our Peace Sanctuary at 34080 Rattlesnake Hill Rd, Tecumseh 74873.

Our programs include the Healing Circle which we host each Sunday afternoon (weather permitting) for individuals who want to connect with the Healing Power of Nature in a meeting format situated around a fire.
Our Mindfulness in Recovery group enhances any twelve-step program and meets each Thursday at 6 PM at the Shawnee Senior Center. 401 N. Bell Shawnee, OK
The Spirit Coach, a one-of-a-kind horse-drawn carriage, is a way to connect with nature both at the Sanctuary and at community events. We offer free rides to the community, including young people in the foster system, and homeless children.
We are currently in the process of adapting one of our
carriages to be wheelchair-accessible, which will allow people of all abilities not only to ride in the carriage safely but help drive the horses.
Rides in our Spirit Coach, sponsored by community organizations and businesses in Shawnee are happening frequently. Follow us on Facebook to learn about upcoming dates.
