Mastering the Art of Living
For over 50 years, we have been evolving our self-sustaining, self-enhancing, and self-improving community lifestyle.
Introduction
We envisioned a model community life where every institution supports and enhances individuals’ capacity to lead a healthy, productive, and fulfilling life.
Today, our sanctuary serves as a daily refuge that promotes harmony and alleviates stress for both our members and visitors.
We have, in effect, invested ourselves in “mastering the art of living” by:
- Embracing a plant-based lifestyle that nurtures our bodies and our planet
- Choosing modest attire made from natural materials, respecting both tradition and sustainability
- Engaging with music and entertainment that enrich the spirit, body, and mind
- Fostering open, honest, and truth-centered conversations and relationships
- Offering diverse, enriching courses that promote intellectual growth
These principles guide us to create, innovate, and expand, contributing to the betterment of society and the human condition.

Cultivating Harmony with Nature
Cultivating food without harmful chemicals benefits everyone.
This principle drives our dedication to chemical-free farming, combining innovative production with natural methods. Our fertilizers, soil nutrients, and preventive pesticides are all plant-based.
Our soil care and regeneration techniques include crop rotation, intercropping, and importantly, giving our fields a sabbatical rest every seven years.

Clothing – Embrace Wellness and Beauty
Our skin, the body’s largest organ, breathes through its pores, expelling toxins and absorbing essential oxygen. Our clothing choices should support this natural process. Opting for natural fibers aligns with a life of vitality and balance.
What we wear tells our story, and we let our attire boldly express our values as we embrace diverse, modest, cultural, regal attire that celebrates our heritage and unity.

Entertainment as “Innerattainment”
Music enriches our lives profoundly, shaping our thoughts and emotions in extraordinary ways. A familiar song or movie scene can transport us to past moments, evoking emotions linked to those memories.
In the Village of Peace, Dimona, we intentionally harness this powerful influence to bring out our best selves, facilitating joy and greater connection.
With this understanding, we have crafted a unique genre—Songs of Deliverance—designed to uplift, nurture, and inspire positive introspection, while also encouraging joyful dancing and singing.

Health & Nutrition
In the Village of Peace, we embrace a plant-based lifestyle, recognizing that our bodies, composed of 70% water and 30% minerals, thrive when nourished directly from nature.
This ideal reflects our sacred bond with the earth—”adam” and “adamah” in Hebrew.
Caring for our planet means nurturing the source of our sustenance and essence making environmental stewardship integral to enlightened-wholistic societies.
Five Guiding Principles for a Healthy Life:
- Food as medicine — Locally grown fruits and vegetables are nutrient-rich and should be central to a plant-based diet.
- Water as medicine — Start your day with a glass to prime your digestive system, and remember that combining eating and drinking can disrupt digestion.
- Rest as medicine — Rest more to enhance your life.
- Exercise as medicine — The benefits of moderate physical activity and movement are extensive. In the Village of Peace Dimona, our comprehensive programs include jogging, walking, sports, and dance.
