To assess the effectiveness of ‘so hum’ meditation in experimental group, to find out the association between pre-test stress score with selected demographic variables. In this study a true experimental design was adopted. Purposive sampling technique was used to select each 30 sample in experimental and control group equally. Structured interview schedule was used to collect the demographic variables and student stress rating scale was used to assess the level of stress. Experimental group receives intervention of ‘So Hum’ Meditation for 15 days (except Sunday) In experimental group, the pre test scores on the level of stress 4 (13.33%) had Moderate stress and 24 (80%) had High stress, and 2 (6.67%) had Profound stress respectively. Whereas post test scores on the level of stress 10 (33.33%) had No stress and 14 (46.67%) had Low stress, and 6 (20%) had Mild stress respectively.

Whereas post test scores on the level of stress 6 (20%) had Moderate stress and 20 (66.67%) had High stress, and 4 (13.33%) had Profound stress respectively.
