Welcome to the Well-Lived Life Silent Auction!
Please note that the auction is divided into 2 time blocks, each focusing on specific categories. Items will only be open for bids during their designated time.
When you bid on an auction item, you're adding momentum to the groundbreaking vision of Dr. Gladys McGarey, the Mother of Holistic Medicine and author of The Well-Lived Life. Dr. Gladys died on September 28, 2024 at the age of 103.
But even at 103, Dr. Gladys spent each day working towards her 10-year plan of transforming medical care and creating a Village for Living Medicine. Now you can help manifest her vision by bidding on these keepsakes that played a part in this amazing woman's life. One hundred percent of all profits from this auction will be used to help bring about Dr. Gladys' vision.
Bid now to obtain one-of-a-kind items from all over the world that are imbued with the spirit of this best-selling author and Mother of Holistic Medicine! Purchase a gift for a friend or win a memento for yourself, all while contributing to making Dr. Gladys' vision a reality.
Don't want to bid on any items? You can still support the programs and initiatives that were dear to Dr. Gladys' heart by clicking the Donation or Become a Sponsor button to the left.
Dr. Gladys, as she was affectionately known, was board certified in Holistic and Integrated Medicine and held a family practice for more than sixty years. She was the co-founder of the American Holistic Medical Association, (and past president), as well as the co-founder of the Academy of Parapsychology and Medicine. She was the first to utilize acupuncture in the U.S. and trained many other physicians how to use it.
Dr. Gladys Taylor McGarey’s work lives on through The Foundation for Living Medicine. The Foundation is honoring Dr. Gladys’ legacy by continuing her efforts to create a paradigm shift in medicine, replacing the current disease model with one that focuses on each individual and the wholeness of life. Sign up for updates about the ongoing work on Dr. Gladys' vision by joining the BeGlad Family.

Refunds or Returns
All sales are final and no refunds will be given.
