Perfect health is a no brainer. Not just the longer life but also live free from all the problems that come with health issues.
The second, not so much. Talent sounds good but can potentially make a very boring life. Telekinesis sounds good too but I think I’d still go with the time pause as that’s effectively a 50% life increase. Imagine a day where you can devote 12 hours to work and chores and another 12 to social and personal? You then have perfect health which means you can achieve peak performance in pretty much any sport.
All fun and games untill it’s the year 200000023, all of humanity is long dead, earth has been destroyed and you’re trapped in the white star that once was our sun. Unable to die, unable to move, unable to even lose your mind.
Perfect mental health means you can handle the isolation and boredom, though. With natural talent you could become skilled at imagining yourself not being trapped in a gravity well.
My first thought was, #6 sounds great, but without perfect health, it could be a death sentence, since if you pass out from a health problem, noone will ever come to save you.
Now I have bigger questions. Does time resume when you die? Or is picking that one dooming the rest of the world to be paused forever?

You are still in perfect health.

I didn’t interprete perfect health as immortality in this case. Just a long life until I died of a very old age.

Since death isn’t the same as sleep, I’d assume so.
