Hilary has a B.A. in Integrative Arts. Her artwork has been exhibited at the State Museum of Pennsylvania and other venues. She is the author of a book entitled: Waking Up With Art, a contemplation of creativity as a spiritual practice. Her meditation and Buddha Dharma practice are supported by ongoing participation in silent retreats, training and courses to deepen presence and understanding. She is a graduate of the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) teaching practicum through the Center for Mindfulness at Jefferson University. She has traveled to Northern India to study Tibetan arts and Buddhist culture.
Hilary offers workshops and courses that integrate creative play with simple meditation practices designed to cultivate awareness and spontaneous creative expression. The workshops called, “Playful Being”, are an extension of her own creative practice, which has evolved over more than two decades. The process includes the use of poems and contemplations to spark the creative impulse. It is available to people of all skill levels and offers an opportunity to reconnect with life and creativity in a way that nourishes and revives our spirit.
