Struggling with unfair situations may be a daily challenge, especially for individuals on the spectrum. But what if we could channel that energy towards something more constructive?

Highlights include:

  • Practical approaches for managing anxiety among children on the spectrum
  • The two-arrow metaphor that reveals how to distinguish pain from needless suffering
