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

Fascinating Read
Such an interesting book, Glady's has certainly had an amazing 102 year life. I found her wise words made me reflect on my own life and make changes. I have found my self spreading the word to friends and family.

awesome
I enjoyed the narration, the content and followed with curiosity the interesting life path of centenarian Dr Gladys McGarey. Her attitude towards problem solving life's challenges, a treasure. Definitely an uplifting read that I would enjoy reading again or keep as a reference.

Brilliant all round
Dr Gladys seems to combine and summarise all the wisdom in every other ‘self help and well being’ audiobook I’ve ever heard. Brilliant.

Just wonderful
I loved listening to this book, infact I’m sad it’s finished- so much so that I might start it again from the beginning. It’s like a warm hug from life at exactly the point I needed it.

inspiring
To have done and achieved as much as she has by the age of 102 to then image her 10 year plan is awe inspiring. Loved the journey, thank you.
