I can relate to this. Also started coding young and I'm 32 and a Scala developer.

Here is what I stated doing recently and feels like it helps:

1. 15 minutes mediation daily before work starts and 15 minutes after work. This marks the end of a work day and can start thinking about something else.

Lately due to some changes in the company I found myself thinking a lot about work even after working hours. Without being able to stop. Meditation trains my mind to calm down and switch off.

I also feel that I can now switch tasks easier. And my mind feels lighter.

2. Try to reduce the bad stress at work. Refuse nonsense deadlines.

3. 1 cup of coffee per day is enough. Move your body with 30 minutes of running and daily walks.

With the remote working we now have plenty of time. So 15 minutes of meditation across the day is really easy to integrate.

Thank you for tips. I don't think I can live with only one cup of coffee though :D
