Jon Gosselin is ready to go to the mat: the yoga mat!
The latest stop on his quest for inner peace was a yoga studio at a Los Angeles hotel Nov. 5. As exclusive photos at Usmagazine.com show, the 32-year-old reality star -- in shorts and a tattoo-revealing tank top -- tried out basic poses, stretches and breathing and meditation exercises.
Yoga may help the embattled star "find balance in his life," Michelle Demus, Programming Director at Manhattan's Pure Yoga, tells Us.
Check out a hilarious video of Jon Gosselin getting in touch with his spiritual side!
"I'm sure with all that has been going on in Jon's life, things are out of whack," Demus tells Us. "He's got to let go of external distractions and tap into his spirituality."
Observing snapshots of Gosselin's novice yoga session, Demus says that his body seems "closed off" and "holds a lot of tension."
That's no surprise. Facing numerous legal battles from his estranged wife Kate Gosselin and cable network TLC, Gosselin stormed off an Entertainment Tonight set recently after getting into a shouting match with girlfriend Hailey Glassman -- who had previously accused him of throwing "mantrums."

Prior to this outburst, Gosselin admitted Oct. 29 that "I have allowed myself to become somewhat severed from my own moral anchor and be carried away by the challenges of fame," and that he yearned to "reconnect with my deeper, more spiritual, more altruistic self."
The first step in this spiritual rebirth, he said, would be lots of quality time with his new spiritual advisor Rabbi Shmuley Boteach -- and with his eight kids.

Yoga, says expert Demus, could also help him become a better father.
"A big tenant of yoga is to let go, to be present in the moment," she tells Us. "So when he's with his children, he could actually be present and be a father."

In addition to his yoga session, he took a break by the pool to munch on a green apple, chat on his phone and catch up on some reading.
His books of choice? Tao Te Ching, a Taoist self-help tome, and a children's book.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! WTF is wrong with this "manchild"? I'm sure Mady and Cara will love this pic of their deadbeat dad. :(
Its nice to see that so much fat and hair plugs can be at peace in the world. Give me a break, yoga is not going to solve your problems. This guy and his nasty evil wife are losers and I wish they would just go away!
Kate Gosselin wouldn't have been disgraced if she hadn't tried to hide the fact that the marriage was over, for the sake of their "documentary", "reality" show, whatever TLC wants to call that train wreck. She has gone down kicking and screaming and has so far failed to answer for her part in scamming viewers. Her filing for divorce was a money grab. She couldn't hide the separation any more and she was afraid to lose the money that made her Ms. Glamorous. The kids' money was secure, remember? I barely care about her kids anymore. I don't care how much she goes on TV claiming they are her first priority.
Yoga can't help him get his spirit and mind in shape. Nothing will make the public forget the rantings of a lunatic that is Jon Gosselin. "I despise Kate", still rings in my ears and the fact that he lied about taking $180,000, makes me even sicker because he took it from his children. Please just go away Jon and let the public forget about all your stupid antics to stay in the public eye.
I think ORDERLYL summed it up quite nice.I dont agree about Kate however.
Its gonna take more than YOGA to make Jon Gosselin be a better FATHER. A whole lot more.
all i can say is..chunky monkey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!too funny

You can describe Kate Gosselin with one word -- demanding, hedonistic, irrationally suspicious, hostile, exploitative, short attention span, irritable, and grandiose -- or you can describe her with many -- bipolar. She excels at manipulating others' emotions for fun and profit yet she can't get a five-year-old to do what she wants without hitting her.
AWWW. The poor little resident troll is upset. I can't help it if the truth about Kate Gosselin isn't good.
