When Cassian Andor climbs into a TIE fighter he’s never flown before, you feel your shoulders tense. You know he’s going to survive—this is a prequel, after all. But your body doesn’t care. That dissonance? It’s limbic resonance. And it’s just the beginning.
In this premiere episode of Accidental Therapy, Glenn Ostlund breaks down how Andor Season 2 uses cinematic storytelling to activate your nervous system—blurring the lines between what you think and what you feel. You’ll explore:
- Why your brain can’t always calm your body
- The evolution of fear through the basal ganglia, limbic system, and neocortex
- Cassian Andor as a model of nervous system mastery
- The Force as a metaphor for emotional regulation
- Nightmares, trauma echoes, and felt experience as emotional reality
- How to become your own inner rebel alliance through mindfulness and Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Whether you're a therapist, a Star Wars fan, or someone simply trying to breathe more deeply in a chaotic world, this episode is for the Nia inside all of us.
