Why Our Brains Resists Change: Finding Flow, Alignment, and New Habits

Send us a text

Have you ever noticed how just before a breakthrough, everything suddenly feels uncertain?
That voice of doubt creeps in precisely when you’re edging towards the finish line, or when you feel like you've finally cracked through.
This isn’t a sign you’re on the wrong path; it’s your brain’s natural resistance to change.

In this episode, Christina Fletcher shares her personal journey of writing and submitting a dream book proposal to Hay House this summer and the surprising resistance that showed up just before completion. She explores the neuroscience of homeostasis (your brain’s way of clinging to what feels familiar) and how to stay aligned even when self-doubt intensifies.

Discover how to:

• Understand and recognize homeostasis and why your brain resists change, even positive change
• Recognize the difference between warning signs vs. growth resistance
• Reframe self-doubt as a sign you’re on the edge of transformation
• Access your intuition as “future memories”; guidance from your future self
• Use small, consistent alignment practices to build resilience during uncertain times
• Harness seasonal energy (like September) to anchor in new alignment habits
• Apply these tools in real-life examples, just like in Christina’s manifestation story of meeting her husband

Christina also invites you to join her 5-day In-Flow Challenge starting September 15th. With videos, resources, and community support to help you establish habits that keep you grounded, clear, and aligned with your highest self, she's supporting you in stepping into your aligned self into the busiest season of the year.
