Default Tip for breaking a freeze
At least this works for me. This week.

When I freeze I don't fool around. Crawl or fall becomes my motto. But I found something a few days ago that, thus far, breaks up the freeze pretty thoroughly and almost immediately.

If I take something about the size of a golf ball or larger and begin passing it back and forth from hand to hand, the freeze disappears almost completely.

Now, I've had my share of temporary miracles, so I will enjoy this while I can, but I have to wonder what this says about what's going on.
