[soah]

as opposed to just taking a week off entirely from poker, I've sometimes found it helpful to just play a different game for a while - small stakes PLO or LHE or something. I use a bunch of brainpower trying to figure out htf to beat those games and when I return to NLHE I'm no longer on autopilot because I've pushed the NLHE strategies into the back of my mind and I have to spend a day or two trying to remember what I'm supposed to be doing.
