I myself have that feeling during fall and winter.

Go with the seasons. I am very aware of the changes, and although I regret the ending of summer, I still enjoy the winter (except for clearing my driveway after the snow plow has passed), celebrate the winter solstice and look eagerly for the first signs of spring. Also a reminder to take your vitamen D to make up for the lack of sunshine. A very thoughtful article; you seem to have the right philosophy

Also, it's the time of year when we're supposed to start storing more calories for a winter of leanness. I feel this every fall, and explains my need to slow down a bit - and make casseroles! Nothing wrong with it at all. You're right though; we are so out of touch with the rhythms of nature in our society. There is no respect for what our bodies really need at this time of year.
