DEEP HEALING

When Dr. Gladys McGarey and husband Dr. Bill McGarey received their medical degrees they eagerly looked forward to diagnosing, treating and curing specific diseases. They noted a recurrence of the problem at times. After studying the Edgar Cayce material they realized that one piece of the puzzle was missing – a willingness of the patient to make needed changes in diet, lifestyle and regular exercise to maintain health.

The Cayce approach spoke of the all important lymph system that moves throughout the body, the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system, of castor oil packs vital to the proper functioning of the lymphatic system and kidneys. “Looking beyond the diagnosis we found that something as simple as forgiveness could break the bonds that hold us so energy can flow again. Acupuncture, as noted by the Chinese so many years ago, was one of the therapies used at our clinic,” said Dr. Gladys.

After practicing medicine for 56 years, the last l5 joining her daughter, Dr. Helene Wechster at Scottsdale Holistic Medical Group, she returned to India, where she was raised by her parents who had been medical missionaries. Under the auspices of the nonprofit “Future Generations,” she treated 900 children of lepers. Her parents and aunt established these five homes in the 1920s. Her brother, Dr. Carl Taylor gathered with others for future planning. Afghanistan was her next stop where she set up a “mother-in-law” conference to teach birthing. Afghan couples live with the husband’s parents and the mother-in-law attends at all birthing needs. Dr. Gladys now lectures and does life coaching in Scottsdale, Arizona.
