The best thing to do is block off the nest or put her in a box of some sort with no bedding or eggs. Give her food and water. She should break within a few days. Here is a link for more info on breaking them https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/encouraging-or-discouraging-broodiness-in-your-hens
Best of luck!

You could try putting her in a crate off the ground so cool air flows beneath her. Some people use those frozen "blue ice blocks" wrapped in a towel so the hen has to sit on lay on them.

Couldnt I just freeze ceramic eggs or give her a nice pack to sit on?
Glad you joined!
You got some good advise from the other members. Moving your hen to a new coop or cage for a couple of days usually is sufficient.
