My habit is, when I get back from a break, I head right back into what I was doing before. Since it usually involves burnout, I just burn out again. I'm working on trying to isolate the major factors for what overwhelmed me so that I can make adjustments when I come back.
I think you're right in that it's super important to be attuned to what's going on in your mind/ body and recognize when you need a break or when / if you need to quit. I found Language Transfer super helpful because it's an audio course (I'm learning Swahili) so I can do it while taking a walk and it's not overwhelming at all.

Best of luck figuring that out
