Is anyone else on washout from PEACE? Curious to see what people experience during integration. I must say, I am impressed by how well the results are holding up. I do miss that “PEACE hit” that you get when actively running it – if you’ve used it, you know what I mean.
The magnetism effect has remained, though it isn’t as pronounced – a good balance. Interactions with people overall seem smoother. Ability to return to the center in the face of turmoil has remained. Strengthened in a way, as it feels more natural and organic. Hard to explain.
While in active processing, it’s just like nothing can affect you, which feels odd at first since most people navigate life on emotion. In washout, I feel like my emotions can slip through a bit more. PEACE has this effect where I have started to appreciate my emotions and the information that they bring. So, while I greatly enjoyed that period on PEACE where emotionality couldn’t sway me, I’m also enjoying this new state of emotional freedom – being able to feel and enjoy emotions without being dominated by them.
So many moments that I’ve felt myself absolutely moved by the beauty of music, or even the sunset. Really enriches the day.
Will revisit PEACE over a planned holiday break.

PEACE i was reflecting on this morning actually. I lost my job last month, I hated it, I’ve had some family issues that stayed on my mind 24 hours a day, and it wouldn’t go away. A few other things as well however I have a new job, my day to day thoughts are not on the past anymore, I feel my mind or thought patterns moving forward from that, I am dramatically more present.

Not on a full washout yet but I’m on a modified schedule that quite a few more advanced users are using (not claiming I’m an advanced user yet) and that’s to have two rest days off in a row, which acts like a mini-washout.
Most using the modified listening schedule pick M W F as their listening days with Sat and Sun off for their rest days.
PEACE does give mini-blooms during those two days off and I swear it’s making the positive effects from the subs more powerful.
BTW, I just experienced real equanimity for the first time in my life. It was a completely new feeling to me and as funny as it sounds I couldn’t figure out what it was I was feeling.
So I dug and am convinced that it was due to the Rooted Like the Mountain part of the sub. It’s still with me today. I’m not sure if it’s permanent, but it doesn’t matter because it will be eventually and now I know what equanimity truly means and what it feels like.

me too.
i also like this whole idea:
I have tried to figure out how to describe that very precious moment I experienced on PEACE. I cannot do so with language. So, I’ll try to paint a metaphysical “picture.”
Imagine a bright light that exists beyond the consciousness. You cannot quite see it, you can only sense it – far, far, far in the distance. It draws you in, so you begin to walk. And you walk and walk and walk until you begin to question what you’re even walking toward. That’s when it hits you – you were not “walking” toward anything. You were already there.
That is what I experienced, in very symbolic and metaphorical fashion, for a combined minute or so.

Thank you for sharing that SaintSoverign. I know you’ve been alluding to that experience for a bit. Overall, these are the “answers” I keep getting glimpses of with PEACE. You’re already there. You’re already what you want to be.
I just need to get my whole brain on board with those answers. 
I plan to keep running PEACE for the next two years with my upcoming custom, but I do plan to switch it with Summertime occaisionaly to add some warmth to my healing.
I’m very curious how PEACE will unfold over the next two years.
