Correct Answer: suppress


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The word suppress means to inhibit or restrain, which is the opposite of promoting or facilitating.
Facilitate means to make something easier or more likely to happen, and in the context of the sentence, the ability to relax and rejuvenate facilitates wellness by contributing to a state of well-being.

The meanings of the other words are:

  • Update: It denotes making current or modern by adding the latest information or improvements.
  • Replenish: It denotes filling or restoring something that was depleted or used up.
  • Revive: It denotes bringing back to life, consciousness, or activity; renewing vitality.

Therefore, the correct answer is facilitate.
