This happens to everyone, and for myself, I know this happens when I don't expose myself to a steady stream of new and interesting ideas and experiences. These don't have to be related to coding, either.

If possible, I shut off at 4pm every day, and spend the rest of my evening with other things to refresh myself.

Read books. Invest in relationships, learning about the other people in your life. Take up new hobbies like sports, wood working, drawing -- something that gets you away from the screen, preferably.
