The goal of stress management is to learn how to control our stress and turn it into a

strength. We need to determine the ideal level of stress that will individually motivate but not
overwhelm each of us. Excessive stress can leave us feeling "tied up in knots." Insufficient stress
serves as a depressant and can leave us feeling bored or depressed. According to Mahisha

individual’s ability to cope with stress.
