Thursday in early October. Settle into the month’s rhythm. October has its own pace, measured but purposeful.

The frenetic energy of September’s transition has passed. October is more settled, more sure of itself. It knows what it is. Deep autumn, harvest time, the year’s winding down.

Find your own settled rhythm. What pace serves you in this season? Not summer’s langour, not spring’s urgency, but autumn’s measured purpose. Work with the season.

What rhythm will you settle into this month?
