It takes me at least a month to finish up year-end loose ends and catch up on school-related things that I had always intended to get to, but never did during the school year. After that I make an effort to do things not related to school for several weeks--hike, fish, read non-education books, etc. Due to the availability of technology and communications, it is very hard to get away from it, but I do try. Then I spend some time playing with tech stuff that I really do need to learn. I can't really focus on it during the school year. Fortunately, I do consider that fun and relaxing. Finally, the last few weeks are a competition between what I really want to do (non-school) and what I really need to do to get ready for the next school year.
