If you aren't driving to work, nothing better to clear your head than a mindless zoned out doodle. Always have a notebook/sketchpad and a pencil. That's where the best ideas come from.

whether it’s doodling or writing lingering thoughts, as long as you’re forcing yourself to physically write or draw, it’ll always feel good

This!!! Lately I've been in a slump, I've found that setting a 30 minute timer where I put phone on do not disturb, only have my document up on the screen, and write — not editing it as I go just write for 30 minutes straight — has helped. By the end of those 30 minutes I'm usually in a flow and try again for another 30 and so on.
I also like collecting quotes or photos (I use Pinterest) that connect to my story. It's a way of grounding me back into the world and a source of inspiration.
I used to commute 1 hour back and forth to work everyday and that time in the car by myself is when a lot of the building for my novel took place. So now whenever I'm in the car, it's reflexive almost for me to work out plot lines, dialogue, etc.
