ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Change isn’t easy, especially when it comes to New Year’s resolutions but a local author and change expert stopped by with some advice.

Rebecca Reynolds said she has worked on hundreds of projects over decades to help people navigate change. Reynolds recently wrote a book, “Thresholds of Change,” that talks about what she theorizes as the four stages of change:

• Manifestation
• Instigation
• The liminal
• Metabolization

Reynolds will be at the Loma Colorado Library this Saturday, starting at 10 a.m. It’s a free event that is open to everyone. She will also be the keynote speaker at the Jan. 18 New Mexico Book Association Winter Fiesta and the teacher of a Feb. 5 workshop through the association.

In the video above, she talked about all of this and the number one reason that change doesn’t stick.
