I have changed and transformed my life. It is not magic, but a diligent and hard work, which is a combination of many things; food, meditation, dedication, psychoanalysis, reading the right books, introspective look, retrospective analysis, the reasons of things that happened, then acceptance, forgiveness & let go. I have become a self-knowing, self-assured, focused person. In the first series; I am talking to discover what lies in my past. In the second series, I am talking about the tangible steps I have taken that effected and enabled the change. I hold a BS & MBA, as proof of ableness.

Addiction is Never The Problem On the contrary, dealing with addiction teaches invaluable lessons. That makes addictions blessing in disguise for me. An addiction is telling you have something that bothers you. It hurt so much when it happened, you don’t want to do anything with it again. Each addiction maps to a certain type of emotion. That’s why multiple addictions occur at the same time. It is not the addiction, it is the lack of a mechanism to deal with these issues is the problem. We don’t born with these mechanisms, we learn them on the way either from parents, family members, good friends or books. If we have not been taught, or exposed to these mechanisms to deal with current or past happenings, we simply don’t deal with them and they fill the whole bathroom with water.…
Subscribe my blog: www.aybalse.com I am in Istanbul, there is elections today. Head to head, Turkish people are showing that they have their own minds. I am questionably hopeful for the future. Just couple hours ago, I was welcomed at a home who have had one of my painting on their wall for the last 12 years. They were different times then. I left my management job, searching for the path of my heart/soul/mind. I joined a theatre group, feeling free and unquestionably hopeful. They were the times of painting on my kitchen table and the floor with anything I could find. I knew this was absolutely what I wanted to do. I was an artist, a real artist with a low self-esteem. I had a ritualistic way of painting. First, I chose the colour pallet of the background. The colours would create an emotional response, reflect the atmosphere of me. Then I started painting with pastels, oil pastels, smudging them with my fingers. It was essential to feel the paint through my skin, or vs. Let the surface to the paint feel me so they could paint me over, all over… The third step was staring, waiting for the picture to reveal itself to the eyes of my mind. When they did, it was blazing glory. There it was only available to my eyes, not from this world, but from somewhere else. They were gifts to me and they made me feel as I was a gift to them. A poem… Playful, exotic, fun, adventures… Maybe my cousin had chosen the perfect name for me from her book; “The Adventures of Ayşegül” The unseen world, which I knew existed but didn’t know how to go to. How did it look like? How did I look like in there? Was I even there? Yes, I must be… Did I have any additional powers? What were my adventures? Not working at factories or 9-5 job, serve to the business world as a machine allowed me to dare to ask questions as such. It was a joy… I belonged to that world. The stars exploded, the galaxies twirled and wrapped their skirts around me as I painted. This was 11 years ago. So much has happened in between. I know I could have done so much more if I had some belief in me then. It took me 11 years to build the belief, to overcome my low-self esteem and to say, this is a “good” painting, now & then. The question arises “what is a good painting?” Well, I mean, a painting with a soul, a painting which its owner still has an immense pleasure of looking a it and showing it to their guests. A painting which was already painted and was waiting for the artist to reveal the veil. Some people have that thing, the hand removes the veil. Speaking to you; Now you have chosen to be an artist or not, that is kind of irrelevant. You are one anyway. I believe you feel that power that speaks the truth about you. It is life energy in all its purity. A friend said once, “Generally Artists don't like their old paintings”. May be, is that so really? I guess I like them because they are not exactly mine.…
Is starting life from scratch really an easy start? Urban life has a jig, still my heart is at the nature. Picking up random cards from a deck and trying to predict the future.
This episode, I am slightly more sinister. Looking into the main reason of why a man might be browsing porn pages at a translation, finding enlightenment in my kidneys, and passengers who couldn't separate from their microwaves and toaster when they are flying. Honestly, All of those happened, I am the true witness. tweet me your feed back, please, chips…
I always wondered how the synchronicity works especially with money and deck of cards. Wanna check out my blog: brr tigers: better than my nonsense podcast I assure you: Blog: https://aybalse.com/exit24
Thread starts with the idea/concept of duality. The line between two opposites blurred in my life long time ago or maybe from the birth. What happens to the artist like me, self-taught but devoted their lives to art? Each of us choose to deal with something as priority; some money, some beauty, some emotional well being. It is like a level in a computer game. When that level is accomplished, time to play the next level. Some of us choose to replay the one before. I get so many things in life but that is cowardness, still nothing wrong with that also. I am back. Can you share it with someone who you think will appreciate this episode. Luv u all Ayse…
Welcome to the first episode of the second season:) I am in Istanbul, staying at my mum's, looking at the painting that made me decide to become an artist. Whilst listening the sound of the city, I've found an envelope of photos.
Today's pick is "Everything is Magnetic Field, this is how we are connected". Strange things are happening. I grow aware whatever I mention in these episodes turns out to pop up out of blue. I find it super interesting when my yesterday's metaphoric episode became my reality of the night. And of course a robin in the woods. I know, what am I saying? I am saying that exactly. Day by day, I am changing my reality, here, on these podcast, with witnesses. Send me a tweet @aysebalko…
I kissed a frog, married myself and we moved into a gigantic house. Build a botanical gardens. We start running workshops for men, women and children to learn the fundamental aspects of life. The first step was meeting with my vulnerabilities and not hiding or running away form my own self. My first light hearted story, one day at a time.…
Success is something we can almost smell. Its smell appears before it becomes tangible. I actually talked about it all the way through this time. It comes with its own responsibilities. Ans the time it takes between the smell and the real appearance is essential for us. We can turn use it to complete the parts we are missing. Knowledge is everything, knowledge is the kind that will make us to grab the sliding success. This life is real no matter how much we hear it is not. There is only one way to make it happen, understanding who we are, what we are missing and using the time to learn. Goes to Teddy bears...…
This is the full recording of my first ever radio interview. Surprisingly I was so nervous. It was hard for me to talk about the amazingness of being selected for a prestigious art prize. It counts if I win it more than being selected I feel. But all an experience and my second interview flows a lot easier and jollier. I takes time to get used to being in a super pro recording environment with a time span. Next time I am rocking.…
It is never what you expect from the title. It is a new beginning after I discovered a new hot night drink, satsuma-numeric-honey. And an opportunity unleashed itself to get a dog. But dreams can change...
I set off to talk about the cutest lips and smiles I have seen. There are 7 elephants by my window, basically means I will be buying my house but when? Shortly, someones smile and lips becomes the cutest if we both like each others company.
Use the hand you have dealth, reprogram your mind. This was the paper I picked for today. But I talked about my eye sight for 3 min. Short and sweet, I've never able to see sharp and clear no matter how many times I have been to optician. I will go back to "reprogram your mind" on an other episode.
