We live in an era of 24-hour news cycles that primarily focus on the negativity of this world. It can leave many of us cynical, jaded, and even cause us to lose a bit of faith in our fellow humans.
Occasionally, we will need a social media timeline cleanse, and that’s where Facebook pages like Beauty of Planet Earth come in. The name itself should be a good enough indication of the type of content you can expect: wholesome and uplifting, for a change.
Here are some of the posts we’ve collected. Enjoy your dose of good vibes for today.

Ever wondered why most (if not all) news outlets post mostly gloomy and bleak-natured content? Simply put, it’s a rigged system. According to Stanford School of Humanities and Sciences professor Brian Knutson, even “balanced” news sources are incentivized to boost negative news to draw attention and strong emotions.

“All news sources want their content to go viral, but biased news sources seem more willing to engage users with emotionally charged content, especially as political polarization increases,” Knutson said, adding that such a polarizing strategy can actually be detrimental to an individual’s ability to make well-informed decisions.
Knutson also emphasized the importance of filtering content sentiment to sift out strongly negative and, more importantly, misleading news pieces that are primarily divisive in nature.

As a positive psychology expert and board member of Action for Happiness, Vanessa King reminds us that even the smallest positive mood boosts add up. It also helps us become more open to others and enhances our creative problem-solving abilities.
“Connecting constructively with people we care about and doing kind things for others are important for everyone’s happiness and wellbeing,” she said, reiterating the importance of being aware of how social media impacts our mood and managing what we access.
