First impulse is to have a short black triple strength or swallow a no doze. I'm however working through a series of workshops where our tutor has suggested a couple of worthwhile ideas. One, is to take a walk. That may provide some short term relief that gets you going again. The other is to put aside all work and just read. Once you have removed the pressure to churn out work, you'll relax. By the time you've read for over a week or two for just the sheer enjoyment, you'll be refreshed and really reaching for the pen!
