One of the most useful ideas I've found was more in the box than outside it.
Basically a it's a collection of small, useful items kept in a box or bag, called a self care kit.
It's especially useful if you need to distract yourself for a short time.
You can put in a journal, recipe ideas, mints, coloring in/ art materials, music on a USB, DVDs lotions, chocolate, quotes and books, or anything else you want. In mine I have a few things including a list of things I can do when I need, I just look down the list until I find something I feel like doing.
While it isn't exactly a self care idea on its own, it's a good way to collect everything together so that you can get to it easily when you need.
