Stress management is crucial for maintaining overall well-being, as it helps individuals cope with life’s challenges effectively. Emotional intelligence plays a pivotal role in stress management by enabling individuals to recognize, understand, and regulate their emotions. People with high emotional intelligence can navigate stressful situations with resilience, adaptability, and self-awareness, leading to better outcomes and improved mental health.
