I'm not really sure of the benefits of these big one off things; after seven days meditating you come back into your regular life, surrounded by your old environment and soon end up reverting to your previous mental patterns.
It seems analogous to going on a running retreat, spending seven days running all day and then coming home and not running again.
It strikes me that it would be more worthwhile to cultivate the habit of meditating once a day rather than making a large unsustainable change.
