Autism Stories: Wendy Roff

"The veils are perceptual filters and autistic people have fewer filters. And so they're receiving a lot of information. [...] Bright lights, the way things sound, the way textures feel. And we say, their filters are lowered that way. But also the filters are lower for the invisible world", says Wendy Roff. Wendy joins us to discuss her new book about her new book about the connection of science and mysticism. To learn more about Wendy visit https://www.tiktok.com/@darling_bubbles
