Stress is the "wear and tear" that our bodies experience, as we adjust to the continually changing environment. It has physical and emotional effects on us and can create positive or negative feelings. As a positive Influence, stress can help compelling us to action; it can result in a new awareness and an exciting new perspective. As a negative influence, it can result in feelings of distrust, rejection, anger, and depression, which in turn can lead to health problems. With the death of a loved one, the birth of a child, a job promotion, or a new relationship, we also experience stress as we readjust our lives. In so adjusting to different circumstances, stress will help or hinder us depending on how we react to it. In this paper we intend to:
• Describe the EQ competency of stress tolerance,
• Understand the various aspects of stress,
• Improve stress management levels in individuals,
• Examine different options to reduce personal stress levels in the workplace.
