WELLBEING

Happy Blue Marble Finds Its Wellness Center Home in Carlsbad Village

A new kind of wellness sanctuary has arrived in North County — and it’s not your typical yoga studio.

At Happy Blue Marble, there are no rigid rules or postures. Instead, every class, ritual and service is focused on creating a safe, sacred space for guests to tune into their own inner wisdom + rhythm.

LET’S GET TOGETHER

Women + Wellness Wednesdays: Designed to Prosper | Wed. June 25th

Get ready for feel-good finances for women who mean business.

Join us together with Private Pilates San Diego + Aphrodite Fertility Acupuncture for a real-talk, no-fluff convo on:
— Making your money work for you with the Profit First method
