Headaches, back pain, IBS, fatigue, anxiety … the long list of chronic illness is rising. According to Mind, 1 in 4 of us suffers from a mental health problem every year. Dr Gemma Newman witnesses this first-hand in her clinic every day. A few years ago, she realised that despite tinkering with their medications to help ease their symptoms, most of her patients were not getting better. She decided to try something different.
Determined to help, Gemma has studied nutrition, psychotherapy and a wide range of holistic approaches alongside her medical practice. Get Well Stay Well brings together everything she has learned in twenty years of clinical experience: six essential health prescriptions distilled into simple and free daily habits.
Gemma has seen radical transformations in her patients, family and her own health from her open-minded approach to medicine. In her practice she has come to understand that body, mind and soul are not separate, and that only through a ‘whole body’ treatment plan can we truly heal.

Gemma’s unique GLOVES health framework draws on the latest global research as well as real-life case studies from her GP practice to offer readers these tools for change:
- Gratitude – Studies have linked the practice of gratitude to better sleep, the release of feel-good chemicals and increased likelihood of making healthy food choices. Gemma shares simple habits for encouraging gratitude in daily life, including navigating loss, heartbreak and trauma, as well as visualisation techniques.
- Love – In an age of digital connection, there is a sharp increase in the number of people experiencing loneliness, social isolation and depression. Gemma outlines the health benefits to self-compassion, forgiveness and belonging with simple exercises that range from quieting the inner critic to the power of taking a compliment.
- Outside – Studies show people who spend more time in green spaces have less risk of chronic disease. Gemma offers tips for making the most of ‘nature’s antidepressant’, including specific advice for people who live in urban areas, as well as guidance on nature therapies for both indoors and outdoors.
- Vegetables – Gemma is a leading expert on the advantages of a plant-based diet for radically improved long-term health: research has shown that a daily habit of eating more plants can reduce risk of heart diseases, cancers and diabetes as well as improve gut health, immunity, skin health and hormone regulation. Alongside Gemma’s practical guidance, this chapter features easy plant-based recipes to help readers get started, including recipe contributions and personal transformation stories from Deliciously Ella, Dr Rupy Aujla and vegan chefs The Happy Pear.
- Exercise – Studies have shown that not only can exercise make you live longer, just 10 minutes of exercise a week can make you happier. For many people, it can be intimidating to create a consistent exercise habit and Gemma shares easy ways to incorporate more movement into an everyday lifestyle.
- Sleep – Sleep deprivation has now reached epidemic levels and studies show that 1 in 3 of us suffer from poor sleep. Gemma shares her essential tips for improving sleep, including for shift workers and those struggling with insomnia.
I love Dr Gemma’s unique health framework in Get Well Stay Well, and it is clear that gratitude is at the heart of everything she does. A true game changer of a book! Do yourself a favour and read it now.
