We can each and all develop our ability to recover our perceptive awareness from the future or past and Realize Presence.
Everything here is FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY
Realizing Presence is a website designed to be a helpful resource to those healing.
Below are a series of tabs, each tab takes you to different topic areas you can explore.
These topic areas are the best lead sources I know of so far.
They are the experts, I am the messenger.
I may be an expert in mySelf, however these specific topics are theirs.
I happen to know they all exisit at once and can be considered together, and now you do too.
Better structure to follow, and I have a lifetime to go.
Here's a breathing pattern to help reduce stress in real time:
Scroll down to the "Sections" menu below if you don't want to read this stuff.
Realizing Presence is a peer support mental health landing page designed to help you feel more normal, no matter who you are. Here you'll find centralized resources empowering you to heal better and feel better, ranging from grounding exercises and trauma-informed lead sources to self-directed neuroplasticity, Self-realization, and enlightenment.
I do not expect Realizing Presence to become a wildly popular website because most people avoid addressing and healing psychological trauma much the same way they avoid the discomfort of peeling off a bandage to let a wound breathe — even when they know it helps the healing process. Realizing Presence is best suited for the minority of us who are serious about our own healing, and spreading the word for others who are interested in their own healing as well.
Understand this: no thoughts or emotions can kill us, they only feel like they can.
When we realize how temporary the biological lifespan of emotions actually is, combined with the potential of Self directed neuroplasticity, we gain a second wind of hope and begin to understand that healing is very realistic.
While there may not be a permanent cure for psychological trauma, because life itself remains unpredictable, there is healing from it, greater resilience through it, and the ability to better navigate future adversity. There is also aftercare — adjusting our life circumstances where necessary and learning to operate our internal systems in ways that give us the best possible chance at living a peaceful life.
Use Realizing Presence as a place to access the information, tools, and lead sources I have been able to locate and centralize for anyone searching for them, just as I once was.
This website is not a substitute for professional medical or mental health care. I am in lifelong recovery from PTSD, and I am no longer afraid of being tribally rejected for speaking openly about psychological trauma. I have experienced so much flashback that I eventually learned to study it from the inside while it was happening.
Use this website as an empowering resource to help yourself learn to bypass as many stuck points in your own healing and personal growth as possible. If you believe professional medical and/or mental healthcare could benefit you, please seek it out — and please feel free to share this website with them as well.
The one thing I may be able to help you with most is realizing presence for yourSelf, which I personally believe is one of the most important parts of healing.
Andy- Realizing Presence, LLC.
Welcome to Realizing Presence. If you're serious about mental health and Self realization, you're in the right place. My name's Andy Lightfoot, I'm on my healing journey and I am building this website as a usable tool of leads and resources for you in your own healing journey.
I have a natural capacity to decipher exhausting amounts of information at once; I did this forensically processing crime scenes, and now I'm doing it with trauma. Why?
Why am I doing this?
Who am I doing this?
Who are you reading this?
Who are you that is greater than anything your mind can comprehend, including trauma?
This is what you'll find out here.
Also to make healing a little easier, because no one wants to search the internet in circles, especially for trauma.
