I find getting away from my desk and going for a quick walk between tasks helps me.

Also I take lunch away from my desk and usually spend some time chilling out in my car.

Having a dog is a big benefit. Taking him for a walk always reenergises me, and clears my mind. To keep focus during testing , I put on a playlist. Depending on the mood it can vary from classical to 70s synthesizer ; in any case needs to be instrumental.
