Dr. Aditi Nerurkar is a Harvard stress expert, nationally sought-after speaker, and television correspondent helping people manage stress and burnout in the new normal.
Before becoming a Harvard physician specialising in stress, Aditi was a stressed patient seeking answers. When she consulted a doctor for debilitating stress, she was told to "try to relax more." This dismissive response motivated her to study the effects of stress on the brain and body. After overcoming her own stress, she vowed to become the doctor she needed during that difficult time.
This experience set Aditi on a path to help other stressed patients. She discovered that although stress plays a role in nearly 80% of doctor’s visits, only 3% of doctors offer stress management counselling. Her work aims to close this gap.
In her debut book, "The 5 Resets: Rewire Your Brain and Body For Less Stress and More Resilience," Aditi addresses the issue of stress that many doctors overlook. Offering a practical, science-backed approach to managing everyday stress and burnout, "The 5 Resets" is a culmination of her work, featured in The New York Times, NPR, The Times of London, and Oprah Magazine. She has appeared on The Today Show, Good Morning America, The Tamron Hall Show, The Mel Robbins Podcast, and Steven Bartlett's Diary of a CEO. She is a frequent keynote speaker, with talks at the Forbes 30 Under 30 Summit and Harvard Business School’s Women’s Conference.
Named one of the "100 Women to Know in America," Aditi is a conversational expert, offering compelling science through an approachable and compassionate voice. "I wrote 'The 5 Resets' to empower people to make meaningful life changes. I believe everyone deserves better mental health. We all have the power to take that first step towards a brighter future."
Book Dr. Aditi Nerurkar to empower your team with actionable, science-backed strategies to combat stress and burnout. As a Harvard stress expert and engaging speaker, she offers practical insights to transform mental health and resilience in the new normal.
Topics, Sessions And Talks
In this talk, Dr Aditi Nerurkar educates using science-backed insights on enhancing productivity and decreasing maladaptive levels of stress that lead to burnout. With measured, effective, and sustainable strategies to rewire the brain, resist digital distractions, and amplify the capacity to concentrate, Dr Nerurkar empowers her audience to reset stress and burnout and maximise the dimensions of attention, problem-solving skills, and productivity.
In this talk, Dr Aditi Nerurkar debunks the prevailing conventions of resilience and, in their place, dispenses her actionable, practical, and science-based prescription of proven techniques that cultivate a greater sense of fortitude within each individual to enhance organisational culture as a whole. Dr Nerurkar’s data-driven techniques are easily implemented to achieve sustainability and personal growth, decrease burnout and stress, improve focus and engagement, and enhance productivity, ultimately building a stronger foundation for a more resilient organisation and its culture.
Since change of any kind is perceived as an inherent stressor to the brain, Dr Aditi Nerurkar has designed a proven and targeted approach that works with a person’s biology rather than against it. In this talk, Dr Nerurkar offers her practical roadmap for resetting stress and burnout through techniques including a media diet, sleep as a therapeutic intervention, monotasking, and cognitive reframing for better brain health and more resilience.
