Stress is a part of life that is unavoidable. For creativity, education, and even survival, stress is important. It is not detrimental until stress is overpowering and the good balance our nervous system needs to balance is disturbed. Our bodies will be overwhelmed when our nervous system gets overworked with substances that prepare us "to fight or flee." While stress can save our lives in lives where we have to respond fast, it is a wear and tears to our bodies when it is engaged continuously by stressors daily. In the present study, we have aimed to determine the degree of stress among nursing students at a certain nursing school, to see how effective Progressive Muscle Relaxation is at reducing stress in nursing students at a specific nursing school. An evaluation technique was used to analyze the effects of progressive muscle relaxation on stress among students at any selected institution in Andhra Pradesh. The study found that basic features including age, gender, course of study, year of study, family type, or the financial source for study support have not shown any significant connection to the stress level before the testing. Stress is an inevitable part of human life. Stress can work as a performance killer, but it can also act as a driving force to achieve results. Patients confront a range of challenges, including academic pressure & drive, integration issues in the system, learning to take more responsibility, and getting their peers' acceptance. Nursing students can attain a "relaxation state" by adopting progressive muscle relaxation. Indeed, a lot of studies demonstrate that practicing progressive muscle relaxation regularly can help manage stress and alleviate stress-related health issues. The current study's findings further highlight the usefulness of PMR in reducing excessive stress among nursing students.
