I usually take a break for a few days. After that, something that I found out works for me is to just start writing. I think I don't have ideas or know where I want to go with my story, but I make myself sit down and focus on it for a while and I can be surprisingly productive. Even if my writing in that session feels more labored and I'm not happy with it, usually I can go back to it the next day and revise it and get back into the flow.
