Stories of Impact

Understanding Everyday Love

Positivity Resonance is defined by positive emotions in which we co-experience. These emotions are collaborative, and impacted by micro-moments spent with others in our day-to-day lives. From sharing a laugh with a stranger in line at the grocery store, to discussing your day with an acquaintance, to seeing your friend in the street, these small moments of joy can affect our degrees of virtue. Researchers at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill use funding sourced by the Templeton World Charity Foundation to study this idea that frequently experienced mild positive emotions are major drivers in our health and well-being.
