My trick was to use an ergonomic Swiftpoint GT Mouse in combination with my normal mouse. I switch during lunch break and use the other one the rest of the day.
Swiftpoint GT product details

As Keyboard I am using a KLIM™ Domination. I was searching for a good mechanical keyboard with good key stroke response and a nice feeling and since this is a german product and I try to support national companies, I gave it a try.
Has a good feeling and even without a palm rest the position of my wrist is pleasant.

Regarding the smartphone usage in the evening:
I bought a phone case with a finger ring at the back (the ones you can also use as kick stand) and tried very hard not to support my phone with my little finger at the bottom (typical holding position). Instead I used the ring on the case.

All those changes together archieved the goal to release the pressure on my wrists and arms during the day.
