It's pretty much always dark at 5.



It is beginning to feel a little more like fall, especially early in the morning when my dog wakes me up to walk.  Getting outside first thing in the morning does help me stay in tune with what is going on with the seasons, although I have to say that dark is dark no matter what season it is.  I see that someone’s apples are ripening and their persimmons are beginning to color.  A lot of roses have transitioned from bloom to hip.  The air feels more energetic and slightly damper.

Maybe our bodies want to make a transition, too.  What faded petals can we discard?  What leaves have dried up and need to blow away?  Maybe we need to add some color.  Some of us feel more zip in the fall and it might be time to kick it up a notch on the cardio.  Others of us feel a turn inward and might want to consider some restorative exercise like yoga or Pilates.

In any case, a fitness change can be a good thing.
