Like everything else I think it is important to strike a balance.
Physical exertion or exercise is number one for me. Biking to and from work is a great way to work it in for me. Yoga is a bit of the combination of the two. Again, very important for me. Listening to podcasts is a great distraction. Being social and around friends is great. Going out to the movies and losing myself in the theater experience.
That said, I think meditation is crucial. Sitting in silence with myself, my emotions, my feelings, my thoughts - letting them pass without gripping onto them. Being in the moment and enjoying a walk with my dog can be meditative, as can an easy bike ride w/o music or distractions.
