But, why stop there? Read on to find out what else the Healthy Family Formula has to offer your family.
Why Did I Create The HFF?
In listening to hundreds of parents and caregivers throughout the years, by listening to friends and observing the people I encounter every day through my work and life, by analyzing the research and the concerns of the wider community on the world wide web, and by recognizing the needs of my own family, it has become a glaring fact that many people are feeling tired, overwhelmed, and under-supported without the proper knowledge and guidance they need to confidently manage the healthcare of themselves and their children.
Caregivers are feeling an intense level of e burn-out due to stress, ill health, and the fast-pace of modern life.
The Reason I Got Serious About Family Health
Simply put: we became one of those stats. Those people you hear about who has been hit with a life-changing health challenge. My daughter was diagnosed with a serious chronic illness. And I had to make her well.
I began to see what I hadn’t noticed before: so many more of the rest of the children I knew and loved sick and deflated, and their parents, tired mamas, stressed-out dads: all suffering, not necessarily from the health challenges they were encountering, but in essence, from what they did not know, from the lack of support and the right information about how to be healthier. And no one was telling them. That there was hope. That there were solutions.
I wanted to tell parents the opposite of what was being handed to me (to stop looking for ways to improve our health, to accept sub-optimal health and impersonal, generalized, sub-standard care) and to tell parents that there are answers, there is more than just hope, there is a PLAN and an army of parents who are doing what we all could stand to be encouraged to do: healing and gaining the best health possible so you can get on with the business of living you most vital lives.
Why Do You Go to Healthcare Professionals?
The purpose of working with healthcare professionals is not to come away from a 15-minute meeting overwhelmed and confused. It is not to come out with a list of medications or supplements and a lighter wallet only to return home with more questions than answers.
The purpose of working with a healthcare professional is to come away with more information, a clear plan, and support when needed.
What Is the Formula For Your Family’s Health?
Drawing from my 18 years of mothering, 23 years of teaching, education, and research, 5 years of mothering a child with a serious chronic illness, and 2 years of developing this program, a program that will help other mamas and papas and grandparents to get the healthcare their family needs and deserves, I have created the perfect formula to better health and vitality:
Information + Support = Healthy, Empowered Families

It is a one-stop shop for everything modern families need to get the information and professional support and guidance that will empower you to handle any health challenge that will come your way. And they will come. Parents just need to be ready and equipped with the right tools to handle everything from the common cold to gaining the knowledge and confidence to take the lead on bigger health issues.

The epidemic of chronic illness sweeping through the industrialized world is a clear warning-sign that we need to rethink how our modern lives might be impacting our health. There are so many families today dealing with chronic illness issues and our current healthcare system is ill-equipped to support them. The Healthy Family Formula is the first program of its kind to bridge this gap through comprehensive and easy-to-access tools and resources. To overcome chronic illness, families need education, support and tools for daily living. Through the Healthy Family Formula, Carla Atherton uses her decades of experience as a health and lifestyle consultant, educator, and parent to bring families back to health and vibrancy. I highly recommend this program.
