Morphology
The meaning is directly and transparently derived from combining 'manage' (to handle or deal with) and 'stress' (psychological strain); together they straightforwardly mean to handle or cope with stress. This verb + noun compositional pattern is common and predictable in English (and parallels exist in many languages), so a B1 learner who knows both words would understand the MWE.
Etymology
Manage stress paints a simple picture: imagine using your hands to manage a heavy box labeled stress so it does not fall on you. That's why it means 'to deal with stress' in a way that reduces its bad effects and keeps you well.
