Publisher's summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Dr. Gladys McGarey, the mother of holistic medicine and a still-practicing doctor at 101, 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.

By sharing life-changing stories of miraculous healing from her patients of all ages as well as from her own extraordinary life, 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.

Critic reviews

Astonishing. Contains so many lightbulb moments it could power the national grid. Truly one of the most inspirational women you'll ever meet (Elizabeth Day)
You will love the stories, you will learn how to honor your health and your body, and in the end, you'll love life that much more. Dr. Gladys's life and work are an incredible example of ever greater joy and fulfillment as we continue to learn and age into our soul's true purpose. She writes one of those rare gems of a story that teaches as much as it inspires (Dr. Edith Eger, New York Times bestselling Author of The Choice and The Gift)

Incredibly insightful. Very special. Full of wisdom. I can’t think of a single person that this book won’t help (Dr Rangan Chatterjee)

Age is but a number

Dr Gladys McGarey shares amazing insights from her 102 years of living. Beautifully narrated by, with a few interviews from Gladys herself. Everything in our lives has a positive side. I found her 6 lessons clear and easy to follow. What struck me was when she said 'Everything is always movibg'. I loved the book.

Walking towards life.

The wisdom and delightfull light from Gladys has come at just the right time of my life. Embracing the integration of life within me and meeting the life within my new partner and future husband has brought about so much sunshine, healing, love and pure joy to both of us. It is so good to be alive and all is well with my soul.
