Abstract
Most of the stress in a person's life is self-initiated and self-propagated. Hans Selye has stated that it is not what happens to you that matters, but how you handle it. Stress is part and parcel of our daily living and it is important that we should be conscious of our healthy stress level and prevent the unhealthy effects of a too high level of stress. Different types of stress management techniques are discussed and it is important to remember that not only one technique must be utilized. Every person should identify stressors in his life that are not beneficial to him and choose techniques of stress management that will have the most positive effect.
