Positive Vibes, Powerful Engagement

Promote ‘positivity’ content to boost campaign results and improve our digital environment

The internet is a powerful driver of mental health. Research shows that what we read and watch online has a direct impact on our mood, outlook, and self-image. By taking a mindful approach to digital media buying, advertisers can champion the kind of content that affirms us and enjoy the benefits of a feel-good brand halo.

Advertisers can make ‘online’ a better place to be

The internet has a well-earned reputation for negativity. Unfortunately, digital ad campaigns that blindly prioritize reach sometimes promote incendiary, untrue, and divisive content. Instead, advertisers can contribute to a healthier online environment by aligning with ‘positivity’ content that uplifts users and delivers engagement.

What is ‘positivity’ content?

It’s content that calms us, connects us, and opens up possibilities. Guided meditation, affirmations, fitness, nature, travel, and education are anti-inflammatories that improve our ability to feel, think, and act in ways that enhance our lives and help us deal with daily challenges.

Arts content is just one kind of ‘positivity’ content. Research shows that people enjoyed mental health benefits when they viewed online content from cultural institutions like museums, orchestras, and dance companies.
