About this listen
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.

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

Loved this book
A life lived with love and joy. I would love this to be in school libraries as part of the curriculum to inspire students that love, joy, finding a purpose, setting goals and giving it a go are tools that will guide them through life.

Life lessons with heart
Great book if you are looking for some answers on how to live. Ever optimistic, Dr Gladys tells it like it is, with heart and humour. Drawing from personal experience she details the key ‘secrets’ to life and living. Wonderful read.
