Dr. Gladys McGarey,the mother of holistic medicine and a still-practicing doctor at 102,reveals her powerful secrets for how to live with joy,vitality,and purpose at any age.
In this book,Dr Gladys shares the lessons she has learned from more than a hundred cycles around the sun,and stories from the thousands of patients she's treated throughout her career,who have provided so much inspiration for how to live well.
It offers a counterintuitive approach to living a rich,full,and purposeful life that isn't about conserving energy,but rather about spending it wildly.
In a voice that is both practical and inspiring,Dr Gladys shares life-changing stories of miraculous healing from her patients of all ages as well as from her own extraordinary life - from her early childhood in India and a chance encounter with Mahatma Gandhi to her life as a physician and a mother of six,to her survival of both heartbreak and illness.
Dr. Gladys will change the way you think not only about health and healing but what leads to a life filled with joy and satisfaction.
The Well-Lived Life is a profoundly moving book of practical wisdom and inspiring stories from a doctor whose own life,as well as those of her patients,is proof of concept. Dr. Gladys is the family doctor you wish you had,and your most loving grandmother rolled into one.
