do questions... or flashcards...
and take a mental break... to reset and then go full-force...

try to read things actively - making connections - jotting down notes - actively memorizing - imagining patient presentations - weaving fairytales on subject  - WHATEVER!!!!!!!! don't just sit passively in front of the book and read - that will be boring.

seriously there is nothing wrong with feeling bored cos i m going thru the same thing. The Only thing Saves u is UR Study Partner or U simply start posting ur doubts. The Other Thing u can do is that u can read a novel. Last month i was so blocked that i started readiong a novel whenever i got bored cos believe i didnt want to get off the reading tract, i found the most boresome Spy read it dutifully and whenever i got bored i start reading that. I tried to force my mind to read. So the Novel really got boring and then i reverted back to books after doing something truly boring u tend to find Study easier.

Listen to some music when you study maybe?
Take 10 min. break every hour?
Have lunch with some friends who don´t study for the USMLE so you can talk about something else.

yeah, i agree with praying. any games or sports will definitely freshen you up, unless you are the kind who doesn't like playing. i picked up badminton after a decade gap, and i am glad i did, my back pain is improving, my body seems energetic, and my mind is able to focus (seems like a TV advertisement, doesn't it??).
