Maybe! Meditation (or a broader class of experience, "sitting around not doing much but not trying to nap either") could be useful for some or all people. It's not something I've tried seriously, mostly because trying to breathe regularly gives me a sore throat and trying to sit very still makes me very itchy.
Actaully, I don't know why I didn't remember my experiences with sensory depravation tanks years ago. I remember after spending an hour in the tank feeling amazingly refreshed and significantly more able to concentrate on stuff.
I've thought about trying sensory deprivation before! Is it hard to get access to the tanks?
you can do a poorman's isolation tank by cutting a ping pong ball in half and taping them over your eyes, then turning the radio to static and lying down.
set the static to be just loud enough to muffle the sound of your own breathing.
I rented one in Austin from a hippie couple. It was fun.
