Stress Management: A Study on Female Teaching Fraternity

Abstract

In this paper our main objective is to find out the reasons for stress in working women.  Also we would like to drive home the thought that a little amount of positive stress is healthy. We are basing our analysis on both primary and secondary data. Our attempt in this direction is mainly focused on whether the stress is related to job, family or health disorders. All of us experience stress and feel fatigued sometime in our lives. It can be because of work pressure, improper diet and cornered situations and at times inability to take proper and timely decisions. Stress is not the same as ill-health, but has been related to such illnesses as cardiovascular disease, Immune system disease, Asthma, Diabetes, Digestive disorders, Ulcers, Skin complaints - psoriasis, Headaches, migraines, Pre-menstrual syndrome and depression.
