Well the not_regex validation rule does not exist in Laravel 5.2. You could use the regex validation rule and don't allow numbers: /^([^0-9]*)$/

Maybe this will work?

'title' => [
    'required',
    'regex:/^([^0-9]*)$/',
    'regex:second expression',
],

But it's probably better to combine the two regex patterns.
