Turtle Shell Health

About Us back to homepage

Why are so many of our natural life cycles aligned by the number 13? How can learning about these cycles help improve our overall balance with nature? Why does the moon circle planet Earth 13 times in a year? In ancient cultures, the number 13 represented femininity, because it corresponded to the number of lunar (menstrual) cycles in a year (13 x 28 = 364 days). Why does a turtle, symbolically known for its longevity and fertility, exhibit a pattern of 13 scales on its shell?

Turtle Shell Health’s philosophy for a meaningful life is rooted in what we refer to as the thirteen ways to health. These 13 principles are interchangeable with one another and may inspire a different meaning for each individual. However, TSH believes that the pursuit of any one of these qualities in one’s life, will in time lead to the eventual discovery of all 13:

Spirituality, Exercise, Nutrition, Simplicity, Sustainability, Shelter, Solace, Balance, Focus, Commitment, Acceptance, Love, Freedom
