September 1, 1939, the Hitler armies invaded Poland. Since 1981, it has been observed as 'World Peace Day' to commemorate and remember the great massacres that occurred following the occupation, as well as to draw attention to the beauty and value of Peace by stating that such suffering and wars should not occur again.
In 2001, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a new resolution designating September 21 as World Peace Day/International World Peace Day, to honor those who have worked tirelessly to end conflict and promote peace. The International Day of Peace is also a day of personal, political, and economic truce.
Let’s pause a minute and reflect together; Do we, as a species and as leaders appreciate peace? Do we aim Peace with joy and harmony? Do we take responsibility for Peace?
We all want peace, but do we even understand what Peace means?
According to data collected as part of the Hope Map Project, a global research project led by Dr. Leshem in conflict zones around the world, our understanding of peace is heavily constructed in a negative way.
Data for this study were gathered from 500 Jews in Israel and 500 Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Around 70% of respondents on both sides strongly associated peace with what scholars refer to as "negative peace." Negative peace is defined by what it is not: violence, war, and bloodshed. Those who interpret peace in this way see it as the absence of war.
“Peace is not an absence of war, it is a virtue, a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence, justice.” – Theological-Political Treatise by Spinoza
We may also imagine peace as a passive, boring, and irrelevant concept in comparison to realities(!) of life such as war between countries, politics, and economies, and attempt to solve problems with our minds in conflict, while leaving our hearts numb and closed.
We, as Regenerate X are on a mission to change that; we are in full service to inspire intention, attract collective attention, cultivate a serving attitude with harmony and beauty and co-own leadership responsibility for Systems of Peace. We are starting this October with our first Heart Masters in Ibiza, where systems of peace are inherently lived, imagined and expressed freely and practically taken forward with amazing leaders from all around the world who are dedicated to serving to Peace, in Peace. We are coming (home) together to explore our potential as whole and free humans, and as The Heroines and Unconditional Men honouring our differences to dance together and to make Peace as “a creative revolution”.
Peace as a Creative Revolution
Peace is not passive: it is active, engaged, fluid, creative and powerful. It requires us to go beyond the conflict in our thoughts, relations and systems that are designed and sustained by us. It is beyond certain dogmas, rituals, or verbal repetitions, it is a creative revolution that requires our intention and attention as leaders, now.
Peace can only be achieved when there is love. We will find the peace that is not a mere projection of the mind, but when in us, there is the understanding of love and beauty. It is this peace that is creative, that removes confusion and brings order and harmony within oneself.
This peace comes when you are constantly watching yourself, when you are sensitive to both the ugly and the beautiful, to the good and the bad, and to all the fluctuations of life. Peace is not something petty created by the mind; it is enormously great, infinitely extensive, and it can be understood only when your heart is full of love.
Peace brings a fundamental revolution in the world, a creative, effortless revolution. This revolution is happening in the hearts of humans who dare to hear beyond the explosion of bombs, see beyond the concepts of “other” and “enemies”, and dare to speak the word “PEACE” aloud. If this sounds great and you want to be a part of these daring hearts, we have an announcement for you below and here (Breath in Peace: Feminine & Masculine Balancing Energy Awareness Journey (September 11th-18th, Online)
But first, let’s shift our perspective and invite our rational minds to peace with quantum mechanics.
Physics of Peace
Our modern worldview is still far too influenced by classical physics, the view of Sir Isaac Newton and his followers. Newton envisioned the universe as being built from independently or inherently existent point particles, entities existing in their own right that secondarily come together to build more complex structures from galaxies to people.
Given its fundamental importance, the quantum mechanical view of entities is yet much less influential in shaping our modern worldview than it should be. In the last two decades, we have come to understand that the relationships between quantum entities are often more important, and more real than the isolated existence of the entities.
David Bohm, internationally known for his important work at the foundations of quantum mechanics writes:
“I would call attention to the general problem of fragmentation of human consciousness. It is proposed that the widespread and pervasive distinctions between people (race, nation, family, profession, etc.), which are now preventing mankind from working together for the common good, and indeed, even for survival, have one of the key factors of their origin in a kind of thought that treats things as inherently divided, disconnected, and ‘broken up’ into yet smaller constituent parts. Each part is considered to be essentially independent and self-existent. When man thinks of himself in this way, he will inevitably tend to defend the needs of his own ‘Ego’ against those of the others; or, if he identifies with a group of people of the same kind, he will defend this group in a similar way. He cannot seriously think of mankind as the basic reality, whose claims come first. Even if he does try to consider the needs of mankind he tends to regard humanity as separate from nature, and so on. What I am proposing here is that man’s general way of thinking of the totality, i.e. his general world view is crucial for the overall order of the human mind itself. If he thinks of the totality as constituted of independent fragments, then that is how his mind will tend to operate, but if he can include everything coherently and harmoniously in an overall whole that is undivided, unbroken, and without a border (for every border is a division or break) then his mind will tend to move in a similar way, and from this will flow an orderly action within the whole.”
―David Bohm, Wholeness and the Implicate Order
Quantum nonlocality is truly the physics of peace.

Breathe in Peace
As we count down to our first Heart Masters in Ibiza, we invite you to join Systems of Peace mission, regardless of where you are! This online journey is designed for our community to discover the Peace within and among, harmonising feminine and masculine energies, through breath work and conscious guidance by four extraordinary coaches who transformed themselves and have been changing many men and women through a powerful breathwork method.
Feminine and Masculine Balancing Energy Awareness Journey (Online)- November 2022
Our world is shaped by a dance between masculine & feminine energies. But this dynamic is widely misunderstood and rarely discussed. Masculine and feminine energies are not only gender-related and the key is balance, a dance between the two and knowing where and when to use each.
Human nature always searches for developing the dynamic polarity between inner feminine and masculine energy and bringing these energies into balance. Because this balance is what makes our nature whole, and helps us sustain healthy relationships and lead in peace.
This journey will guide you into heightened states of awareness where you can access your masculine and feminine energies, understand the components of the divine masculine and the divine feminine, create a healthy balance, have a deeper connection to each with empathy and transform how you lead your life and business.
This journey is designed for a limited number of people, to be able to provide personalised guidance to take you deeper and beyond based on your own needs.
What does the journey include?
The journey includes 2 live seminars and transformational breathwork sessions and an online guidance by experts for two weeks with daily posts with access sentences, questions of the day and miracle breath in a Whats App group, as well as receive personalised guidance for your questions directly from the experts.
What to expect from the seminars?
Deepen your understanding of the feminine and masculine energy
Gain insight into the quality and purpose of each energy and how they interact
Explore the dynamic between two energies within your life by identifying how each of these energies is playing out in your life and business
Realise the effects of imbalanced/dominant feminine and masculine energy in your life and business
Learn how to balance these two energies and how/where to effectively best use this energy for yourself, family & business, and your leadership for Systems of Peace.
What to expect from the breathwork sessions?
Connect with our inner divine feminine and masculine energy
Integrate to our true selves; physically, mentally and spiritually
Reduce stress and anxiety levels and increase our energy
