wild article for several reasons, including but not limited to: 1. opens with "crypto founder Charles Hoskinson fled in terror" 2. second paragraph then goes "created Cardano, the 10th biggest crypto coin with a market cap of $24B" smh 3. details darkness retreats where individuals (including Aaron Rodgers, Tiffany Hadish, and Dwight Howard) spend a few days alone in darkness and silence without any electronics (aka "dopamine fast.") some crazy people have spent 40 days (wtf!!!) 4. apparently in the first day or two, participants overproduce melatonin so have deep, deep rest like taking sedatives. also takes a full day to stop absentmindedly trying to check their phone. 5. there are 5 darkness retreat centers in the US and 100 worldwide. the "Sky Cave" where Hoskinson went has a two year (yes, two full year) waiting list. 6. oh yeah, some people start hallucinating by day three and equate it to what happens on a DMT trip.

Why don't they just close curtains and leave mobile downstairs? Like they have to go to a center for that? Or do they have massages and great wine?

Wish the author had mentioned Andrew Durham, who wrote an excellent and down-to-earth book on dark retreats including a manual for those who want to build their own retreat space. https://hygienicdarkretreat.com/

speaking from a place of care, folks need to be careful in approaching these retreats and gradually work their way up sensory deprivation can trigger latent mental illness no different from psychedelics etc.

Would love to try this. Random but reminds me of Onoir in Montreal. Eat in the dark and wait staff are all blind: http://www.onoir.com/en/about
