About Lilia Sofía

Lilia Sofia is a graduate of RYTT 500 of Peachtree Yoga Center. She is from Mexico City and has been living in Atlanta with her family for 30 years.

Lilia started on her yoga journey more than two decades ago. She is originally from Mexico City and enjoys teaching in both English and Spanish. Yoga became a big part of her life as a mother, and later, in her everyday life in her career in Hospitality Sales and Marketing and later on in the Insurance Business. She discovered the profound healing power of mindfulness, presence and breathwork.

In 2020, Lilia experienced a different way to see her health and her goals, and decided that she would like to change her career. At 50 her focus shifted to the awareness of the spirit and followed her inner guidance and calling.  She started working towards her goal and now has completed bioenergetic training, became a Reiki Master, received a “Health and Wellness” coaching certification from Emory University and a certification from MBSR - “Mindfulness for Stress Reduction”, a program by Jon Kabat-Zin on mindfulness.  She has also become a coach in changing habits, and obtained a one-year certification in Mexico for the connection between Chinese Medicine and Yoga. 

Lilia Sofia founded "Harmony and Wellness" with the mission to help customers shift their perspectives to achieve their goals in health and wellness.  Since 2023 she has been teaching Yoga in both English and Spanish. She has also hosted and co-hosted local workshops and day retreats for yoga and meditation as well as several weekend retreats at Elohee, in North Georgia.

She was part of “Stillness Yoga and Meditation Center from 2024-2026” and in the Summer of 2026 she decided to start her own studio, as a studio partner with “The Wellness Studio” in Marietta, GA. where she hosts workshops and teaches Gentle Yoga, Restorative, Chair Yoga, Yoga en Español. She also offers private and semi private lessons.

Lilia Sofia, has been married to her highschool sweetheart, Ted for over 30 years and they are the proud parents of Alex, a son who experienced severe depression and anxiety during his teen years. Through time, she realized that parenting someone who is working through mental health hardships can lead to some extreme anxiety within itself. This led Lilia to grow and cope through anxiety of her own; she learned a lot of coping mechanisms and she grew a lot from that experience. 

When you attend classes, workshops or retreats with Lilia Sofia, you are invited to slow down, be present, lead with compassion, find joy and reconnect with your truest version of your self, because Harmony and Wellness is much more than Yoga, is a company created to share experiences to rest your mind, relax your heart, soften your breath and unclench your jaw. Lilia Sofia aims to share a practice that fosters peace and balance both on and off the mat, emphasizing stretching, mindful breathing, and the development of healthy habits.   She currently teaches at “The Wellness Studio in Marietta”, hosting classes for gentle yoga, chair yoga, restorative and yoga en Español.

Since 2022 Lilia has created and shared wellness workshops as well as hosted and co-hosted multiple retreats in North Georgia. In the fall of 2025 she led the first international retreat in Oaxaca, Mexico, guiding 20 women through a deeply transformative journey in a cultural and yoga retreat. In November 2026 she is leading a retreat back to México, this time to Mérida Yucatan to continue to promote Yoga and Culture.
