I WFH 100%, and have been since 2009. I do all work from a VM running on my personal desktop. So first thing I do is turn that off. Second is physically remove myself from the area where I work for at least an hour. In my case it's office in 2nd floor of my house. That could just be going downstairs to clean the kitchen/dinner prep, walk the dog, go to the gym, grab a drink and/or food, etc.
When I used to work off my work laptop in the living room and the end of the day would come I had no problem stopping work, but could never easily transition into after work mode. I would spend 5-8 pm feeling just off, tired, unmotivated to even cook a meal. It was pretty awful until I forced myself to always work in a dedicated space in the house that wasn't where I also relax and watch TV. Of course after dinner I often retreat back to my office to play WoW, so I do utilize the space outside of work hours, but for pleasure.
