I find #1 is super important. I do similar, get up for a stretch, walk around, move my body at least. I'm also a bit fan of meditation, which I write about here from a dev's perspective.
I'm .a big fan of #5 too, whenever I feel overwhelmed, out comes the notepad, but recording of TODOs happens electronically (in Trello or Evernote for the most part).

Thanks Daragh, will definitely check out your writings on mindfulness as that's a big thing for me too.
Cheers - feel free to connect through the site, I teach meditation to devs.
