Can you visualize your dreams? Sue Ganz Schmitt joins me to talk about Aphantasia

  • Summary

  • Kelly, Nancy and children's book author Sue Ganz-Schmitt discuss Aphantasia: • How to say it?: Uh-Fan-Tay-See-Ya. What is it? Aphantasia is the inability to visualize. Otherwise known as image-free thinking. In simpler terms, if you ask someone with aphantasia to imagine a beach, we think of the concept of a beach. We know what a beach is and can describe it, but we can’t “see” it in our mind’s eye. It’s not just the visual sense that’s impacted. Aphantasia can affect all or some of the other senses in your imagination. It is also called mind-blindness.
