I’ve introduced sabbath, one day per week (mine was Saturday) where you are not allowed to work or even think about work, not even reading mails. Do what your inner voice leads you to do on these days, including staying in bed all day while listening to audiobooks.

I’ve been using my sabbath day to explore the country I was living in (immersion in different places), and / or meeting people while at it. While traveling I was listening to audiobooks or playing games on my Switch (but overall reduced screen time). It was one of the factors getting me through an AI PhD.
