It's not a bad idea to pursue hobbies outside of programming, even temporarily. I've found every time I take a break for a while, I want to sit down and just program again. That said, you could also try to find interesting things you actually are interested in working on. Building yet another demo website- boring. Building some sort of useful tool or home tech project- cool. At least, that's what works for me.
