Includes bibliographical references."Dr. Gladys McGarey, a centenarian still-practicing doctor and the mother of holistic medicine, reveals her powerful and life-changing secrets for how to live with joy, vitality, and purpose at any age. Dr. Gladys McGarey, cofounder of the American Holistic Medical Association, began her medical practice at a time when women couldn't even own their own bank accounts. Over the past sixty years, she has pioneered a new way of thinking about disease and health that has transformed the way we imagine health care and self-care around the world. On these pages, Dr. McGarey shares her six actionable secrets to enjoying lives that are long, happy, and purpose-driven: Spend your energy wildly--how to embrace your life fully and feel motivated every day; All life needs to move--How to move spiritually, mentally, and physically, to help let go of trauma and other roadblocks; You are here for a reason--how to find the everyday "juice" that helps you stay oriented in your life's purpose; You are never alone--how to build a community that's meaningful to you; Everything is your teacher--discover the deep learnings that come from pain and setbacks; Love is the most powerful medicine--learn to love yourself, and others, into healing. In a voice that is both practical and inspiring, Dr. McGarey shares her own extraordinary stories and eternal wisdom--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. And she doesn't just look backwards, she looks forward. At over a hundred years old, Dr. McGarey has an inspiring plan for a healthier and more joyful future for all."--
