In her newest photo art calendar for 2026, 'Cemetery Meditations,' Zeena takes you on a monthly visit to monuments to the dead where she's spent countless meditations and suggests: “The next time you pass by a cemetery, consider stepping inside, turning your phone off, and taking a break from a hectic day—but do so with full awareness, reverence and gratitude for this relatively short life you have. You might find that among the headstones and silence, something eternal beyond the transitory material realm exists.”


​All photos in the calendar were taken at cemeteries in Berlin Germany, and Vienna, Austria, by Zeena Schreck.

-The Sacred Silence of Cemeteries-

"Cemeteries hold quiet yet profound spiritual resonance across cultures and belief systems. Far from being merely resting grounds for the dead, they have always served as sanctuaries for meditation and connection with unseen mysteries. To meditate among the graves is one way to confront impermanence directly. The stillness invites introspection, and the presence of mortality can sharpen awareness and appreciation of life. For many, the veil between worlds feels thinner here, allowing for deeper communion with ancestors, spirit guides, and divine forces. Considering the collective grief, sadness, and sufferings of centuries of dead beings and their survivors is also an opportunity to generate bodhicitta (compassion and loving-kindness). Such necropolises are considered appropriate retreat locations among certain Buddhist and Hindu practitioners.​
"But regardless of your spiritual tradition, or lack thereof, just the beauty and organic connection to the earth and plants in cemeteries alone invites us to slow down, listen, reflect, and remember our priorities, before this fleeting existence is gone. They offer a rare stillness, often in the midst of a noisy world—a place where the mind can be open and the heart can speak freely. Whether you're seeking ancestral wisdom, connection to lost loved ones, or contemplating the nature of reality, meditating on impermanence, gaining clarity of mind, or simply want a moment of peace away from the pressures of living, the cemetery can be a sacred ally.
