Combination of what’s listed below and breaking up tasks if not able to get proper rest. You’ll have to actively cut you’re self from the habit of wanting to return back if your in rest, but you’re recalibrating your mind to have a better work/life balance. Another tip is to find equally exhaustive hobbies; for me, the gym, or taking on a new recipe has given the same cognitive capacity without the same mechanics as coding. It helps create new venues to put that same energy into without getting back to burnout.
Finally, respect your work life balance. Don’t go the extra mile post burnout, it can create a backdraft. Commit to attempting your goals for the day in the time allotted and stop in that timeframe. The longer you try and do “just one more thing,” the fast you are back/continuing into burnout. Which leads to the final aspect, forgive yourself. We’re some of the luckiest professionals in the world with accommodations only other industries dream of. DO NOT TAKE IT FOR GRANTED. If your job offers a abundant vacation policy, have a friend force you on holiday, or join a group trip. While the work can be fulfilling, it’s not the end all be all. What good is all the earnings if you’re killing yourself to get enjoy your efforts? Ensure you’re giving yourself breaks just to allow yourself to pause and reflect. If you’re profession isn’t life or death related, do not treat your work the same way. You’ll have down periods and you’ll have a windfall of uptime, it’s the ebbs and flows of life.
Oh PS, Notepads are friends. While your brain can have “flashes of brilliance” do not allow it to pull you in your off time. Jot it down and continue your leisure, keep the line between work and life strong.
