I do the equivalent at work - go away from the computer and think. Well I'm a contractor / consultant with many home office hours now, but I did the same as an employee. In most cases I leave my phone at the desk because a) it helps me focus (same as leaving the computer behind) and b) it signals that I'm not wasting time, I'm thinking. No one has ever complained.
