1. Understand the different views on the nature of mental well-being and Mental health and the factors that may influence both across lifespan:
It is a well known fact, that everyone is one of kind unique if you like. There for there will be always different views on this as well as other matters. ( diet, fitness ect)
while " this and that " is working for some, it may not work for the other. However there is a basic so called skeleton form which we can build up what is the best for the individual.
Mental well-being can be very unstable thing and it can be tipped either way at any time by trauma or excitement.

1.1 Evaluate two different views on the nature of mental well-being and mental health
As already stated every individual is unique and we cannot assume of otherwise. There for every individual. However there is a basic skeletons from which we can build on ( assessment, diagnosis and therapy)
If we would go to total basics then we would find two directions from which to start.
Positive- People in that state of mind having " can do attitude", find easy problem s solving, their physical health is usually very good or healing of injury or other goes much faster then at negative thinking individual.
- In case of diagnosis and care positive verbalisation helps to encourage a positive process and to keep on track in order to get well
HOWEVER: every individual is unique and there for the carer/ doctor or other must must always let client find best path which is best for the client. ( his own way at his own time)
