ANSWER:

Correct Answer: 1, 3

Wellness is a subjective perception of balance, harmony, and vitality. Wellness is a choice a person makes to move toward optimal health, and it is also a process with no end point. Wellness is the integration of body, mind, and spirit—the appreciation that everything you do, think, feel, and believe has an impact on your health. Wellness is a process, it does not require medical intervention. Wellness had no end point and a person can obtain a level of wellness at any time during their life.
