I think I can help people if I get my hands a little bit dirtier.
Your mom wanted you to scatter her ashes, right?
We know what they should do. Don't you ever want to just shake them?
Well, we don't shake them.
I take that back. Run!
It sounds so unethical.
You just going to burn down your career and take me with you?
Coin flip?
Get out of here.
Stress can cause an individual to act out irrationally at times
and can cause misplaced anger.
In this series we see Jimmy got a patient to an activity to release.
What's an outlet you have that helps you release stress?
Ooh, okay.
Ooh. An outlet that I have that helps me release stress is..
That’s a killer question, man.
I got to tell you, because I've been
you know, if the first question isn't, “How
did you get Harrison Ford?” I'm so grateful.
Definitely therapy. Great.
So I actually went and talked to a guy about happiness
because I’ve struggled with it.
And he gave me a few tools.
And one of the tools that he gave me was that he wanted me to do 14,000
steps every day outdoors.
Okay.
And so that equates to about 2 hours. Yeah.
And I started taking these really, really long walks.
Sometimes it was an actual hike.
Sometimes it was an urban hike through my neighborhood
and it has changed my well-being.
I saw an HBO ‘Real Sports’ thing about a therapist, it’s
one of the genesis stories of this show, it's really out there,
that young men and women were coming back
from being in the service, and getting in bar fights
and getting arrested and (bleeping) people up,
and he took them to MMA and his whole premise was,
“if you're going to beat the crap
out of people why don’t you to do it here for a couple of weeks
till we figure out how to make you stop,” you know?
So it's real, right?
And it does extend because don't you need that man when I lose my mind,
you know, and I'll tell you the sad part
for me, my whole life, it's been playing basketball.
I loved it since I was a kid. I completely forget what's going on.
The reason it's sad is I'm almost a thousand years old now
and I'm still playing in a basketball game that 30 years ago I was the young guy
and now I'm one of the three old guys that these kids still let play, you
know what I mean?
So but to me, just to go
and exercise and get out in the world, that's Big Number One.
Big Number Two, I'll go to a movie
by myself, you know, and just vibe out on someone else's storytelling, you know?
I started surfing while shooting this show.
I came from New York to L.A.
and I picked up surfing.
And it was a really good activity to decompress after work or even before work.
Just going out, being away from my phone, being away from the script,
letting everything go.
I would say working out.
And sometimes, you know, I feel stressed and I don't want to work out.
You know, you don't feel like doing that.
But if I know if I take a hike, especially if I go out in sunshine,
if I just get moving, if I go to a SoulCycle class,
I feel my whole day will change.
I've been doing some gentle jogging lately.
Like, I'll I'll go on and off running.
I think when running doesn't work for me is when I get too dogmatic about it
and I get to like militant about running and like trying to run fast.
But I had a breakthrough recently, which was like, I'm not running for anyone
but myself, so I can go as slow as I want or as fast as I want.
And when I keep that in mind, then I can run a little farther.
You run your own race.
That's your-
I'm running my own race and it’s my foot one foot in front of the other.
So jogging lately has been eally great.
And then I have this, like, huge hill at the end of my jog,
and I always play like, “Dreams and Nightmares” by Meek Mill at the end.
And it feels like very spiritual because it's like the piano in the front
and then like, you know, it just comes in at the end.
Yeah, Yeah.
So it's like I have a little routine.
And every time I do it, I always feel better.
