Speaker 1 (00:00):
Blood host Radio. Hi everyone, and welcome back to Insight
into Healing. I am your host, Alexa Serbodidio and I'm
so excited to be here to night to night. I
have such an incredible guest on the line. I have
Michelle Blood. Michelle's Blood is a successful, multi talented lady.
(00:23):
She was a successful songwriter and rock singer in Australia
and after a near fatal car accident, while in the
hospital with many serious injuries, she created positive affirmation songs
which not only healed her body but also took her
to world wide success. These affirmation songs affect the left
(00:45):
and right hemispheres of the brain, lyrics the left hemisphere
and melody and music the right hemisphere, so the new
positive messages go straight to subconscious mind. This is why
millions of people worldwide have downloaded her positive affirmation power songs.
These songs cover healing, success, money, joy, confidence, and they
(01:10):
uplift the person immediately. In addition to creating magnet to
success products and seminars worldwide, her public mystical success events
have been held in over twenty six countries. Michelle has
co written and created over eighty books, music, CDs, audio,
programs and TV shows and videos on positive mind thought
(01:33):
and mind transformation and meditation. Michelle, Welcome to Insight into Healing.
I'm just so excited to have you join us tonight.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Well, thank you, Alexa. I've been really looking forward to it.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Absolutely, I've been hearing more and more about the work
that you've been doing in the affirmation songs. Tell us
a little bit about how this all got created. I
know there was a mere fatal car accident. What made
this become such a forefront mission for you to go on?
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Well, it was, you know, there are no accidents. While
I was in the hospital, many people were sending me,
you know, tapes and different audio books because I couldn't
read because I was on a steel plated bed for
quite a long time. And I didn't know about self healing.
(02:25):
I've never heard of it in my life before. But
I listened to a lot of these things, and when
I heard about affirmations, which I've never heard of, something
within me.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
You know when you hear.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Something and you just know in the marrow of your
bones that it's true. So I knew it was true,
so I'd always I could, you know, think back, and
I was like God, I have done affirmations all my life.
I've willed myself to have this successful rock band and
to create everything that I've wanted. Even though it's been
really hard work, still I've made it. I've never doubted
(02:58):
that I could do something, so I've had that innate
in a strength to make things happen. So therefore, it
made a lot of sense to me if you say
a specific affirmation. So I had to say something that
I wanted but didn't have. That's a good affirmation. So
I said I am ill because I wasn't I know
(03:21):
I am and I didn't know. I love myself and
I am my friend. And I would say it over
and over again, but it didn't work. The affirmation did
not work at all. And the reason, drum roll, The
reason is because you have to emotionalize a thought for
it to go into your subconscious mind. However, Alexa, as
(03:46):
a singer songwriter, I knew you can't get a song
out of your head even if you like it or
you don't like it, same with advertising jingles. So I
decided to sing the affirmation onto a cassette and for
those of you that are younger, google cassette. Yes, if
you don't know. You don't know what that is anyway,
(04:07):
So I always had a blank cassette and my little
recorder with me back in the day. So when I
got a songwriting idea, so I wouldn't forget it. So
I just started singing again, over and over and over again.
(04:28):
Excuse me the big cause my voice haven't warmed up yet.
But anyway, and it worked because the subconscious mind, because
the lyrics, the affirmations go into the logical side, left brain,
and the melody goes into the right side, so you
have a whole brain experience, and the message from that
(04:51):
song goes straight into your subconscious mind, so your doubting
mind doesn't have a chance to spit it out. And
I do no, no one else has done it. I
asked some friends and my brother to go out and
find the affirmation music and they said, this nice. That's
things everybody. So when I got out of the hospital,
that's when I decided to go into a recording studio
(05:12):
and write and record tons of them, just me and
my band for our unconsciousness. I had no intention of
putting them out to the public at that time. M h.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Wow, you know it makes so much sense because so
many times, you know, people were the opposite with with
negative comments or narratives that they keep repeating in their
lives and their mind and their emotions. They wonder, why
how can I break free from this? But somehow don't
understand the power of turning that around, that the positive
(05:48):
affirmations can have the same effect in a healthy way
of being able to really start healing the mind, healing
the body, and really, you know, the mind and the
body they hold on to pain, to trauma, to any
of that, but being able to release it through song
through spoken word really is having that empowering moment and
(06:12):
that empowering healing throughout the mind and the body that
are so closely connected. A lot of people don't realize
how they're speaking to themselves and how powerful that can be.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Oh, it's just absolutely miraculous and magical the things that
I have seen people create and everything through my music
and my other products. Because I went deeper after a while,
because what happens is the more positive youth and I
became healed. I mean, I've got a lot of steel
(06:44):
plates in my body, but I did become healed. That's
how all of this took off. Because promoters told me
on TV talking about my healing, and they asked me
to go and sing in between Deepak Chopra, Wangdaia all
these authors I had never heard of the time, and
(07:05):
they were offering me a lot of money and I
couldn't believe it. I'm like, what this is insane? And
the first gig I did was in Adelaide and I
didn't know who any of these guys were that were speaking,
and I made about five hundred CDs to sell it
at the back of the room because they said do
your affirmation music? Sell it? And I was like, sell it?
(07:27):
Who do want to buy it? I didn't get it.
So I did that and the first gig I only
replicated five hundred CDs and I thought that was way
too much to six Cities'd be lucky if I come home,
you know. And they were sold by lunchtime as the
first giek the first seminar, so I was just blown
(07:48):
away and before I knew it, it just it just
took off on its own. End up working by Proctice
for seven years. I ended up leaving my band and
teuring all over the world doing my own seminars. Was
well and talking of going deeper and deeper into anything
from happening within your mind, through doing good in the world,
through love, through you know, making people smile whenever you can.
(08:14):
It's not just about what we do for ourselves. As
we oscillated a faster frequency, which is now not where
we're anymore. It's proven through neuroscientists. When we start oscillating
at a higher frequency, we start attracting into our lives
not just healing, but opportunities and purpose, divine purpose, so
(08:35):
that we feel good about ourselves and what we're doing.
And it's just miraculous the way it happens.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Yes, and it also sets up that shield, that emotional shield,
that divine shield around you. When you arm yourself with affirmations,
with empowerment, with doing good in the world for others,
it really helps start to help yourself grow, but also
giving back to your community. When you have your affirmations,
(09:06):
do you find that is it repeating certain affirmations one
after the other. Would someone if they wanted to do
their own would it be just a couple of affirmations
that work for them, or would you recommend they just
listen to a whole bunch and then find what really
rings true. For them.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Yeah, I mean, I've got hundreds of songs, so many
albums to do with different topics, with healing, with creating miracles,
with motivation, with transformation, the children's little kids' affirmations where
they get to sing along with these endangered little baby animals.
I put all these voice over work. So yeah, all
(09:45):
you've got to do is listen. You don't have to
even sing along, because it's just like advertising agencies spend billions,
not millions a year on jingle because they know, once
you've got that jingle in your head, you'll have that
product here forever, whether you like toyotas or not.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Yeah, so you just have to listen. But if someone
wants to do their own affirmations, of course you can.
And maybe you can just get some backing karaoke music
to something some positive song you like, and make up
your own positive affirmations to those songs if you want to,
if you do want to sing along. But even when
I do spoken affirmations, I've always got music underneath it
(10:26):
because I've got many many positive apps. Magnet to Money
app has got tons of affirmations where people get to
save the affirmation after me with the music under it.
They've got tons of eight minute morning meditations for them
to focus on a positive thought each day, and thirty
day challenge. I mean, we've got the Manifestation video book app.
(10:47):
We've got a prayer app coming up out as well.
So these with the new technology and apps, you get reminded.
If you don't remember to hear a positive affirmation, you
get minded. And it was really funny one of my students, Yeah,
exactly students. Was it a bank the other day? She said,
it was just totally no one in there except a
(11:09):
couple of tellers and her ring tone has my Magnet's
money song and it went on really loud, she said,
and everyone just turns around. I'm in a facion. He
would go, I'm a madn's the money and they roll on.
Love it. What is that song? Where did you get
that song? Anyway, and have fun, be joyful, and if
(11:35):
you don't feel joyful, do something to assist someone else,
give money, give food, give a smile, and then you
will feel joyful. And that is extremely important. And you
are doing this, Alexa, You are assisting people. And I
love your latest book, you know, finding Peace within the Chaos.
What a brilliant, brilliant, because it is chaos out there,
(11:59):
people thinking it's just all over the place. So and
what you're doing with this, with you know, with your
interviews and who you are, and you're just such a
beautiful woman inside and out, and so we the other
end of us, we all thank you for all the
work you're doing as well. Because someone might not like
(12:20):
a particular teacher of motivational meditation, there's almost going to
be someone else that they'll think. So there's got to
be a lot of us out there to assist the
will to be uplifted.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Thank you, Yes, yes, absolutely, And I think it's people
finding what fits for them and taking what really rings true,
what they feel really touches their core and helps bring
that healing, helps bringing that growth, because you know, so
many times there's so much negativity that's out there that
(12:52):
we need to be overloaded with the positivity and with
the affirmations to empower ourselves, also teach others how to
do the empowering. And you find, you know, so many
times in Christian music and Catholic music and different types
of religious music, they do do certain things, repeating these
different words, repeating different phrases, and there's a reason in fact,
(13:15):
just so people don't forget, you know, what they're saying.
It's there's something very empowering repeating these words, even if
you don't believe them right away. It comes into your mind,
It comes into your spirit and your soul, and really
that starts, you know, deep rooting it into into who
you are as a person.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Well, that's why mantras have been around the thousands of years,
because it works. Yes, because as you said earlier, you're
building you're building a wall around you, but a very
beautiful golden wall which negativity cannot enter up because your
mind is over flowing with positive thoughts and loving thoughts
about yourself, about your world, about what you do. You know,
(13:58):
even if someone just work up said every morning, if
they could just have a big sign that says, thank
you for my beautiful, miraculous, magical, prosperous life. Today is
a wonderful day, even if you just say it out
loud first thing in the morning, even if you don't
listen to other things all day, but if you can, also,
if you want to go deeper, I highly recommend meditation
(14:21):
practice because that really does in that stillness, in the
silence once you finally can get your mind to be silent,
that is when the miracles truly come out. Like nobody's business.
It's difficult.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Absolutely absolutely, I've seen them for myself and for others,
and I know so many times people are uncomfortable with
that silence, They're uncomfortable with that stillness.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
But that's also important. We're having those affirmations are because
when we're so busy distracting ourselves from thinking about what's
really going on, we're not healing. It doesn't go away.
So it's being able to kind of sit with the uncomfortable,
but having the tools of the affirmation songs of the
mantras to also strengthen that side. And when you give
(15:08):
yourself hope and you give somebody else hope, even when
you don't see it, it is the most powerful tool
and blessing that you can give somebody else.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Oh absolutely, yes, it's it's it's incredible how people don't
realize who they are and until something you don't have
to have me fatal car accident, friends to awaken to
(15:40):
this life which is so miraculous, and the things and
the possibilities and the opportunities that you just can't see
right now, but they are always there. You know. It's
like Mother Mirrah. I love how she says, the divine
wants you to have everything that will bring you happiness,
because then if you have happiness, well then you have
light and then you have morall lives and more happiness
(16:03):
and it'll spread, it'll you know, it'll just keep spreading.
And that's what we're here to do, not to get
up on a soapbox. And you know, it's like if
someone thinks, I know who needs this positive stuff, you know,
and they think of somebody else, No, never ever judge
somebody else. Not it's you who needed. If you think
(16:26):
someone else needs it, you're probably a bit of a nad.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Yes, plain would you say? What would you say to
someone listening? You know, so many times when you're you're
stuck in something you don't you don't see that light
at the end of the tunnel. Where would they start listening?
Is there a certain CD or book or or some
program that you would recommend of yours to a first
time listener to start this journey.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
I really feel our magnet to money, which you can
only get on Apple, the so i, iPhones and iTunes.
But because it's less than a cup of coffee a month,
and you get hundreds of dollars worth of my best
selling products, and you get to listen to all these
things and you have notifications. But if you don't even
(17:17):
want to do that, I can give you quite a
few things because of Alexa. So thank Alexa. If you

(17:41):

and you get I ask you all these questions to
see you know, it's really good to go within and
ask ask a question like have you ever done this?
Do you believe in that? To see where you're actually
coming from. And also the magic of affirmation power. One
(18:02):
of my best selling books and an album that I
actually did with Bob Prupta, which is one of my
favorite affirmation albums called Songs to Success. You will get
old a fool free wow Wow.
Speaker 1 (18:17):

this all over my pages so I know everybody's sitting
here writing things down. I will have it all posted
so all of you listeners you will get a free
offer from Michelle. Thank you so much because this is
it's just so empowering. And also to have others find
that moment and find that I find that peace, find
(18:39):
that joy again is so so important, especially with everything
going on in the world. We need to have those
those moments, but also those tools that one can go
to to keep strengthening because just like anything else, this
needs to be strengthened. This needs to be part of
your daily routine, not as a chore, but as a
(19:00):
way of something of self care that you do for yourself.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Oh exactly, It's so important. It's just I think it's
vital because people don't understand. They feel like they're on
a prefaces and they've Nellie Nelly there, and Nelly started
this business. I'm nearly healed, I'm nearly out of this
bad relationship, but they sort of stay stuck. And that's
(19:26):
because they need their they need a boost, They need
to have their vibration oscillating at a faster frequency. That
book gives them the strength to go forward, that will
give them the willpower. That book gives them the confidence
to make changes in their life, which everybody has to have.
And another thing that is so simple to do is
(19:47):
clean your house. When you have chaotic stuff everywhere, your
mind feels that chaos. Uh, you know, do the boot
of your car, drunk if your car, do your wardrobe
when everything is neat and tidy. You don't have to
be super thin, but just get rid of as much
(20:09):
all stuff as you can and you will feel so
much better, you know, just just keeping everything clean, that
lave dishes in the sink. Make your bit. Absolutely.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
I just did a big, one, big cleaning yesterday and
I was right, this is strange. I feel like, all
of a sudden, the weight was lifted off. It felt
so cathartic that I had two hours in between one
of my classes happened to be rescheduled. I had two
hours and I was like, what should I do? And
I said, I'm going to clean. And it was the
most empowering moment. It really it did something. It's cleaning,
(20:44):
you know, physical cleaning, but also emotional and mental and
spiritual cleaning at the same time.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
Oh exactly. I mean twice a year. I clean out
usually half of my wardrobe easily. Yes, because the old
us has energy on it and we want to we
feel better when we wear new things. You don't have
to have a few fortunes of expensive clothes, but I
think it's really important to have something new regularly so
(21:13):
you just feel good about yourself something you know, it
doesn't matter, even if it's just a new T shirt.
You feel better when you're wearing something new. And then
it's just so crazy how good it feels. I don't
get men going on a shopping free I'm very zen
with my clothes, you know. But I have my stage clothes,
of course, but that's a difference. That's not something I'll
(21:35):
wear down the streets.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Yes, How has this impacted your your stage career? I
know you're doing a lot of your own CDs, but
when you're on stage it must be just ten times
even more exhuberating and amazing, especially singing these affirmations and
knowing that, yes, you're really moving those people in the audience.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Oh yeah, I get tons of them up on stage.
You're gonna have musicians with me as well. And I'm
speaking and we're doing meditation practice as well, and then
we're doing singing. And I mean, I just did an
event two weeks ago in Santa Monica that was just magical.
People flew in from all over the world and we
just we have a bull So people don't have a
chance to have a doubt because we're all laughing so hard.
(22:25):
I'm quite a life is all about it laughing, I
think enjoying yourself. Yeah, I've think people like the Aussie irreverence.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Question before the end of the show. If someone wants
to start this journey, do they have to pick one
area either healing, success, money, joy, confidence or can they
just be flexible and be open to all of it?
What would you recommend?
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Yeah, just be open to all of it. The song's
success has got all these different topics, all these different
songs with different affirmations for money, for persistence, for healing,
for loving yourself, I mean songs. So success is about
having harmony in all areas of your life. So you
just listen to them and you know, all of a sudden,
(23:17):
one of the songs will resonate with you and before
you know it, instead of complaining about lack of money,
you'll be singing I am a magnet money, and before
you know it, you will be Because it works so quickly.
Millions upon millions of people globally have downloaded that one song.
It's crazy. It's been done in so many different languages.
(23:37):
Other people do it in different languages. When they actually
ask me if they can, I'm like, yeah, go for it.
You know, if you do happen to sell them, I
wouldn't mind, little royalty, but otherwise just give it away
for free. I don't care.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Yes, And it's all about, you know, changing that mindset,
being able to be aware of what your negative mindset
is and changing it to that positive. And it's really
the most empowering tool that you can have for yourself
at it takes time. I do people need Maybe it's
one time you do it, Yes, you'll start to feel good.
(24:10):
But it's something that needs to be in your I
would say daily routine to keep strengthening who you are
and where you want to go.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Yeah, And we've got a new product called Manifestations through
the Power of Mysticisms video book. It's the world's first
video book. I did an audio and then we've got
an idea to do videos to go with the audio.
And then I was like, we're going to do the
whole book that I've just written the Manifestation Book as
(24:42):
a video book. Let's look online to see who else
is doing this. And a few people call their program
a video book, but it's actually just a video of
them on stage. But this is like every everything I'm
talking about for each chapter, and the chapters cover many,
many different topics. So every chapter you get to listen
(25:03):
incredibly beautiful images that go straight into your subconscious mind.
Because when you've got the images, the music, and the
message all at once, and it's very, very entertaining. And
then at the end of each video, each chapter there's
a music video, which isn't just always me in it.
Sometimes it's not me at all, but it's me seeing that,
(25:26):
you know, with positive images that go with that particular song.
And so people are raising and a couple of best
selling all the friends of mine just said, this is
the way people are going to do books from there on.
We think audio brass cool, video books, video books. So
I highly recommend that all you have to do is
watch one chapter a day. You will feel I mean,
(25:48):
I can't believe the reviews. You will feel incredible within
after you finish the last chapter, you'll be changed.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Because you you really hit something really huge on that
Because as you think about it, people learn in different ways.
Some people are more visual, some people are more hearing.
Even starting in school, sometimes people need it has to
be drawn on the board or written out. Some people
need to hear it and not see it. Some people
need both. So to have a video and audio, you're
(26:18):
really being able to get that person in all their senses,
so they're learning it on all different levels, so they're
not caught up like can I hear it? Wait, I
didn't hear it, let me write it down. Or I
just saw it, but I didn't hear it. So you're
being able to heal all their senses. So it really
is being thought up. But also the mind and the
body is able to grasp it and digest it. And
(26:41):
a lot of times an EMDR therapy that I do
as a therapist, when we do the EMDR, it's a
light machine, but they also have sensors for the hands
that buzz and also sounds you can put in your
ear for some people learn and are able to hear
better and digest and heal from hearing from just seeing,
(27:03):
hearing and feeling the touch of the sensation of the buzzers.
So it's really I wasn't sure if you're aware of that,
what you're doing with that video audio book is really monumental.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
I'm very aware.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Yes, yeah, I guess her. I was like, wow when
you were talking about it, I'm like, this is incredible.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
Yeah, I'm pretty sure TREEVI senses a link so you
can watch it. He usually does that for every person.
But yeah, so I'm going to do more of those. Really,
We've put so much time into it in well writing
the book. First of all, I can write a book
really fast. It just pulls out of me. But also
(27:49):
I just went blank. That happens sometimes that's okay, the
silence goes into my mind. But the images, I was
so fussy about the images. So I actually purchased a
lot of the images. Some of them r hysterical, lot
of animals, lots of different types of money, coins and
climbing the mountain, people and meditation. And you look at
(28:09):
those beautiful videos and you really get involved with the
words what I'm saying. You'll get an image up immediately
or a video that will go with what I'm talking
about so you're getting a double WHEREMI stret.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
Next step before we add what can my viewers listeners expect?
What is on your horizon if you have any time
for anymore? Because you've got so much going on.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
I'm not quite sure. Could you be more?
Speaker 1 (28:40):
Is there any new project in the works or what
is your next step? You feel that I'm doing it?
Speaker 2 (28:46):
Oh? Yes, the prayer app is the next one, and
after that self esteem song for kids is the next app.
And we'll make that into a video as well, So
you know, i'd be really you know, I love my family.
I hug them and I kissed them and learn about
had all these endangered you know, I've got them as
baby animals. So I've got these beautiful images and everything.
We've got that as a CD now. And doctor Koper
(29:10):
said that my my little baby dangle tied out pup voiceover.
He said, that's a better Indian accent than mine. Why
do I do I do all the voiceover stuff? So
much fun?
Speaker 1 (29:25):
I mean, these should be in school. This is what
our children should be learning about it. It's incredible here.
It's so many different.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Some some Yeah, there's quite a few preschools around the
place that have got it and they play it in
between the breaks with the kids and make them dance around.
So yeah, people, I never thought to put it in schools,
but people just started buying them and putting them in schools, so.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
That was incredible. I wanted to thank you so much
for being on my show and just sharing all of
your late and all of your healing with us. It's
truly been amazing. Thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Well, thank you alexir I love, love love you. I
love what you're doing for the world, and it's just
incredibly important and beautiful.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
