Dear student
In Hybrid, all of theorbitals are overlapping simultaneously. So if we make a bond by using more orbitals with proper alignment, it should be more stable. That's Why in most of the cases (not always), the Hybrid is more stable than canonical structures.
Hope this helps
Good Luck

As resonance involves delocalisation , the overall energy of the compound or molecule lowers down (partial charges appear)
Equivalent energy is present everywhere which makes it stable
