Feedback: Health and illness are part of a dynamic continuum. It is based on one’s
perceptions and is subjective. There are a variety of descriptions one can use along the
continuum to describe their current state. These range from “extremely healthy” to
“extremely ill.” Because it is a dynamic continuum, it represents more than two exclusive
categories. The health–illness continuum includes the body, mind, and spirit, not just
physical well-being.
