When I have writers' block, it usually means I'm trying to make the characters do something that isn't true to their nature--somehow I'm sending the story in the wrong direction.
I like to meditate on it. Get a cup of tea, put on some quiet (wordless) music, and try to figure out what exactly the sticking point is. Once I realize what needs to change, the words flow like water.
