Not that I'm a regular "practiser" by any means. But if I feel stressed by the amount I have to do or the number of idiots (sorry, colleagues) asking me for stuff I feel more able to walk away for 15 minutes and do something else - read a book, walk round the block, anything to get me away.

Check how the lambs are growing. Listen out for the first chiffchaff. Lok out for the first sand martin. Throw out your tv. Spend less time on-line. Tea about history or religion. Learn to play a musical instrument. Loads to do . . .
