I am thrilled to share that I have 6 new mantras available to download and stream on Bandcamp.
This has been a labor of love and the result of singing live in yoga classes and festivals for over 15 years. It’s wild to me when I type that because in so many ways I feel like a constant beginner.
If you are new to mantra, tune in over on Substack as I hope to offer an article on each mantra over the next several weeks.
I will begin with the first mantra Aum Sri Premapranahuti. This comes from specific and powerful experiences I had with a spiritual teacher of mine Derek O’Neill. Since 2007, I have travelled to Ireland to his workshops or healing center developing my understanding of myself, the yogic and buddhist teachings and the energy healing therapies we practice. It was not always an easy or clear path and yet the richness, growth and joy feels like so much grace. When we chant this mantra, we call in this symbol of Divine Breath.
If you are curious about the Rising Star Energy Therapy, please reach out. It is a powerful time to align more fully to who you truly are.
This Volume of mantras is a part of the larger Frequencies of Love project that was funded last year on Kickstarter. There are 9 songs, 9 mantras and a book that includes 9 poems. The other 3 mantras will be released in September and the book hopefully by the end of the year.
May all beings in all the worlds be happy and free
Frequencies of Love (Vol. 1) is now streaming worldwide on all platforms. Join Alicia on Bandcamp and enjoy upcoming listening parties and live events. You can also pre-order the Vinyl which will begin shipping on 11/1.
Alicia Mathewson’s Frequencies of Love is a powerful offering of folk and folk-pop songwriting that blends grounded storytelling with spiritual resonance. Her sixth studio album features nine tracks that explore love, loss, transformation, and healing with honesty and melodic warmth.
Mathewson’s vocals and acoustic guitar anchor the album, supported by piano from Allison Leyton-Brown and percussion by Dave Brophy. The album was mixed and mastered at The Orange Lounge in Toronto, Canada, adding a polished clarity without losing the raw intimacy of the performances.
Both grounding and expansive, Frequencies of Love invites us to return to what matters most.

Happy Full moon!! I am so excited to release another new song!
This song was recorded in the last six weeks on Cape Cod with Jon Evans at Brick Hill Studios.
My good friend and beautiful musician Allison Leyton-Brown is playing piano from afar in Toronto and Spencer Sunshine at The Orange Lounge mixed it for us.
The first verse is about the joy of daily life, the second verse is about being at a kirtan with amazing folks right here on Cape Cod (check out Breath & Sound) and the last verse is about dancing in Ischia with the Happiness Sangha.
No matter what the words say, the music will lift you up and remind you, LOVE IS HAPPENING. even as so many systems are falling apart around us, we have the power to remember the love that we are and the love we can share.
See you on stage in Provincetown soon. GET TICKETS for the conversation with Rita Mae Brown and Felice Cohen
You can purchase and download at my page on Bandcamp

It’s a powerful time of year and lots is shifting for us individually and collectively. Sit back, put on this tune and trust all is well. (even when it feels hard)
If you are looking for support, I have lots of new offerings as a Transformational coach and sound healer.
The weather so far in June in New England has been such a gift from Mother Nature. As I am typing this, it is a perfect Saturday morning with blue skies, a light breeze and sun for days. Last night I took a long walk in Plymouth, where I have lived for the last 9 months, and breathed in the healing salt energy of this ocean. I could feel the summer emerging with the sound of loud motorcycles, families in strollers, and friends with cocktails all out to connect and soak in the happy season of the south shore.
A year ago I got a new hip.
So, taking a long walk on the beach and into town is more of a joy for me now than ever before. It was not the easiest year for me as a human (can you relate?). I had multiple losses and changes, started teaching at a new school and living in a new place, all while allowing this new hip to integrate fully becoming strong and flexible again.
The physical healing actually went incredibly well and I was blessed to have such a smooth and easy surgical and recovery process. The harder journey was internal – mental, emotional, spiritual. It was a perfect storm of so many changes while also moving through the beginning of menopause that invited me into the deepest and darkest place I have experienced yet as a human. I don’t say that to get your comfort. I say that so if you too find yourself journeying through dark places internally, you know lots of other humans are on that journey as well. And you are not alone.
The good news about these cycles in our lives, is that if we really show up for them and ask for the right support, they become the gold mines of our true authentic self.
This past winter in an attempt to sleep and survive, I discovered a new meditation teacher Elizabeth Pyjov (from Insight Timer) and was invited to deepen my self-awareness and meditation practice, opening to self-compassion on a whole new level. Even after 20 years of spiritual and self-awareness work, I had to go back to basics. At the end of the day, It doesn’t really matter what triggered it (though my mind always wants to figure that out), what matters is that I applied practices, reached out for help, stayed connected, and healed on a deeper level creating more resilience, more clarity and more wisdom to share.
I look forward to sharing in the months and years ahead through new music, meditation offerings and multiple books.
Meanwhile on planet earth….It’s PRIDE month and I am watching (mostly online) as joy and celebration happens along side protests and demands for more equality and freedom for all beings. It’s a lot to take in and I find being with nature and being present where I am is what helps me feel most at peace and open to honoring the legacy of so many activists and pioneers that paved the way for me and so many others to be OUT and PROUD.
I remember when I went to both the March on Washington PRIDE in 1993 and NYC PRIDE in 1995. It was a revelation for that 22-24 year old and so important to the development of my own sense of self, community and creative expression. The energy and freedom through the multi-layered manifestation of so many different humans was life-changing. It was inspiring and empowering and opened me to parts of myself I had hidden or was afraid to share. I also found my voice playing guitar and protesting at a variety of events for women and the queer community. I am grateful for all of those experiences and honor the fact that now as many are preparing to march in Boston this morning, I am sitting alone in my apartment writing this.
Whoever you are or wherever you are, I hope you allow yourself to open to what helps you be YOU and feel safe to connect and express. If you are someone who uses their voice and body to create more freedom for others, THANK YOU. If you are someone who sits and meditates on well-being for all, THANK YOU. We need all expressions of freedom and peace and I honor all the choices folks make to bring this forward.
Happy June! Happy Pride month! Happy birthday to my hip!
Please send me a message or leave me a comment and let me know how you are , what’s happening in your world and if I can serve you.
I am in the process of upgrading my online presence on all levels and will be sharing downloadable products – both audio recordings and written material. I will also be offering one-on-one coaching and healings over zoom as well as group offerings on zoom and in person, so stay tuned!
I am writing this on the the eve of the Great American Solar Eclipse. It’s fascinating to see how many folks are paying attention to this eclipse. I remember a solar eclipse in August of 2017 and the collective consciousness was not as focused on it as it is now. Whether you have your glasses to watch, are spending the day meditating, or are simply living your regular daily life, I am sure we will all feel the collective shift.
To celebrate and honor all that we are moving through individually and collectively I am excited to be getting back out there offering both meditation classes and live music for yoga. Please check out my offerings and I hope to see you in person.
