History

Dr. Gladys McGarey's life long interest in living medicine served as a catalyst for the creation of the Foundation that bears her name.  She and six other women came together in 1989 and formed the Foundation as a means to bridge the gap between holistic and conventional medicine. 

They worked during the first two years to refine their mission and solidify its infrastructure while they awaited their IRS designation as a non-profit.  The IRS awarded them nonprofit stratus in 1991.  They used their platform to education and teach the concept of living medicine.  They published articles and gave national and international presentations on the topic to heighten interest and awareness.  They worked to create important partnerships to further the evolving consciousness about living medicine. 

A.R.E. became a significant partner and continues to be today.  The Foundation also developed and implemented conferences and workshops.  The Foundation sponsored an annual "Life Time Achievement Award" recognizing the significant achievements of others in the field.  Dr. Elisabeth Kubler Ross, Dr. Christinanne Northrup, and Dr. Larry Dossey are just a few who received this distinguished award.

The dream that was envisioned nearly twenty years ago is alive, dynamic and evolving.  From the initial structure that was put in place by those pioneering women, The Foundation continues to further the work of living medicine. Books are published, articles written, workshops facilitated, programs implement-
ed.  The Foundation's work embodies living medicine.
