Great advice! Here's a recap:
Keep a balance:
1. Try to sleep early, if you can, before 11.
2. If you can't sleep, just relax, try to feel the body, especially the weight of the body.
3. Do physical exercise, aerobic exercise, especially if you sit too much.
4. Do something different every day, even just changing roads while going to work.
5. In the weekends, go to the mountains, hike, or do something completely different from what you do during the week.
6. Most important is your MINDSET: let go of the past and be with the present.
7. Do a little bit of work every day, divide and don't wait until the last moment. (Most of the time, we don't do what we're supposed to do and when the deadline comes, we get burnt out.)
8. Meditation is very important, meditate every day on breathing, sound, or mental recitation, anything that helps to keep you present and balanced.
In short: LET GO OF THE PAST, LET GO OF THE FUTURE, BE IN THE PRESENT.

Some things I've done to break up my exhausted or stuck mindset:

Long slow deep breaths for 5-15 minutes.

Stretching, gently shaking out arms and hands. Observing the tingling energy and groundedness in the body.

Chant Four Immeasurables or Green Tara or Om or "One"
for 10-15 minutes with hand on heart to feel the vibrations in the chest.

Read my meditation journal and find blockages I worked through.
Or occasions I helped others.
Can turn an experience into gratitude for the growth it brought.
Or can become a compassion for myself or others.

Listen to nature sounds while meditating.
Like birdsong or whales.

Walk or jog in a different park or street.

Eat something different from usual like
grapefuit (something bitter) or
garlic pita chips (savory crunchy texture).

Drink fresh squeezed lemon in water.
