It's well known that after thinking about a problem for awhile it can be helpful to take a break by going for a walk, washing dishes, or even sleeping. To increase the chances of your subconscious mind providing you with a solution to your problem during this relaxing activity, spend a few minutes just before it thinking of possible, although impractical, solutions. For example, you might think "Well, although it's not practical, using helicopters would certainly solve the problem." Or, "It's a silly idea, but we could put the cat on a leash." Make sure you keep your attention on what can be done in the future; otherwise you'll find yourself thinking about the past, such as "If only so-and-so hadn't done such-and-such ...."
Such sample solutions convey to your subconscious mind what you want it to think about while, consciously, you'll be relaxing. If a solution comes to you while you're relaxing, it's likely to be much more practical than your sample solutions.
