Seems to me that it is bringing up old patterns to be released, which is a good thing. Use a favorite method of letting go, or if you don’t have one, Ho’oponopono or Sedona Method are easy and very helpful.
Another tool of the Sedona Method is to feel the resistance fully by diving into it. Perhaps you have your own tools. In all, I think it is a good thing, as flushing out the old programming makes space for the new.
