Emotional intelligence involves the ability to understand, use, and manage one's own emotions in positive ways to relieve stress, communicate effectively, empathize with others, overcome challenges, and defuse conflict. This ability directly contributes to effectively using emotions to help solve problems, which is what option C describes.
