I can attest to the effectiveness of sensory deprivation during meditation, specifically pitch blackness. Although I can't comment on whatever neurochemical effects this might have.
I hadn't seriously considered doing it for such an extended period of time, though. What a wonderful idea!
Maybe you could rent a hotel room, load up on ready to eat food, buy some light blocking tape from a hardware store, hang up the do not disturb sign, and try it for a few days?
By the way, is there a particular meditation that you like to use in no/low-light conditions, wolf?
