In this episode we interview married couple, Haley and Isaiah, who both have aphantasia. Well, technically, Haley is hypophantastic, but she is very aphantastic in most regards. We discuss several interesting topics including putting the mind on autopilot and what it's like to experience the psychedelic effects of Psilocybin as a person with Aphantasia.

He leads us in an interesting and important discussion about the research that is being done in connection to aphantasia, visualization, and psychological disorders.

In this episode, I share and comment on questions and discussions from past guests about how my mind works. Many of my guests are curious about aphantasia and so they ask me questions, trying to better understand what I am experiencing. Here are some of those conversations, resulting in me struggling to explain my brain.

In this episode we discover how Matthew Bockholt's mind's eye works using the Discovering Your Mind Protocol. Matthew is the most hyperphantasia person that I have interviewed so far. His descriptions and insights are intriguing for sure. He is also an author and he discusses the very real relationships that he has with his characters. He describes his imagination as a separate universe that is just as realistic in every way as this one is... but even better because he can do whatever he wants there.

In this episode we discover how Michelle Jefferies' mind's eye works using the Discovering Your Mind Protocol. We start out identifying Michelle as aphantasia but as we move along its definitely more along the lines of hypophantasia. It's interesting that Michelle developed this low visualization, at least in part, later in life, because of childhood trauma. Michelle has the other senses much stronger than most people with hypophantasia, probably because only the visual aspect was affected by the trauma. Michelle is an author and it's really cool to hear her describe how her characters have minds of their own.
