# Healthy-Self Reunions The Bupa 'Find A Healthier You' Ads Reunite People with Themselves By Katherinev123 | Published 2011-11-23 | Marketing Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bupa-find-a-healthier-you References: [adweek](http://www.adweek.com/adfreak/meeting-yourself-isnt-altogether-pleasant-australian-insurance-ads-136651) & [bupa](http://www.bupa.co.uk/) Clemenger [BBDO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/accessible-customer-service) has created this interesting ad for Australian [insurance company](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allianz-ireland) Bupa. The premise behind the Bupa 'Find a Healthier You' ad is that people are reuniting with their healthier selves. The Bupa 'Find a Healthier You' ad begins with a woman happily embracing what looks like a long lost friend or sister; then, the scene changes to a man walking toward another (who has a big grin on his face). After that, a young man gets into a car with another young man and they hug. You get the picture. However, with all of their faces slightly obscured, it is hard to tell what is exactly going on between these people until you get to the end of the commercial, when Bupa's message appears. Regardless, the Bupa ad still plays on [consumer sentiment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/make-life-brighter) by touching on what most of us want -- to be healthier. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 25% | Activity: 36% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Marketing](https://www.trendhunter.com/marketing) > [Commercials](https://www.trendhunter.com/commercials) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Healthier Self:** Creating campaigns that promote the reunion of individuals with their healthier selves can have a significant impact on consumer behavior and promote healthy lifestyle habits. - **Emotional Connection:** Campaigns that establish emotional connections with consumers can be highly effective in shaping their attitudes and behaviors towards health and wellness. - **Obscured Narratives:** Ads that create curiosity and intrigue, while obscuring the true message, can be an effective way to capture consumers' attention and drive engagement with marketing messages. ### Who This Affects Most - **Health Insurance:** Health insurance providers can leverage emotional marketing campaigns to establish deeper connections with consumers and promote healthier lifestyles and behaviors. - **Fitness and Wellness:** Fitness and wellness brands can develop marketing strategies that reconnect consumers with their healthier selves and promote the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. - **Digital Marketing:** The use of obscured narratives in digital marketing campaigns can be an effective way to break through the noise and capture consumers' attention, driving greater engagement with marketing messages and brand offerings. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Meaningful Travel Reunion Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/must-be-love.md) - [Heartfelt Beverage Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-real-boost.md) - [Mental Health Awareness Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/itv.md) - [Humorous Automotive Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/where-have-you-been.md) - [Surreal Car Care Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/you-are-how-you-car.md) - [Empowering Shake Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oomph-for-your-boomph.md) - [Authenticity-Forward Insurance Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allianz-ireland.md) - [Mesmerizing Home Improvements](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/home-improvements.md) - [Unconventional Health Food Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rxbar-ad.md)
