When you're overwhelmed, taking time to relieve stress can feel daunting - but work stress expert Nina Nesdoly believes that sometimes taking a break to relieve stress is the best way forward. She invites you to relieve stress before finishing everything on your to-do list and shares three keys for incorporating stress relief into your life and work: let tension out, limit information in, and lower the barrier to entry. Nina Nesdoly is a work stress and burnout prevention speaker, researcher, and founder of Workplace Clarity. She draws on her interdisciplinary background in Organizational Behaviour (MSc Management) and Neuroscience (BSc) to teach people and organizations how to mitigate work-related stress, prevent burnout, and build resilience, and is currently doing a PhD studying work-related stress.

Since founding her training business, Workplace Clarity, Nina has worked with organizations across North America. Her insights have been featured in Buzzfeed, MarketWatch, the Financial Times, and other major media publications. Outside of work, Nina loves to skate, bike, travel, and read fantasy novels. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
