Complete separation from writing for a while. Sometimes hours, days, weeks even.
Someone once described it to me as a sort of breathe in, breathe out phenomenon. When we write, we're breathing out. And eventually, we get a bit winded. Its then you have to take a step back and take a deep breath.
Read a book, watch a TV series, play a 100-hour RPG, whatever manages to pull your mind out of the gutter and back into a functioning state. In my experience, this has always worked for me and has often led to a feverish return to my work upon completing whatever content I was enjoying.
