A Los Angeles report dated Saturday January 23, 2010, says 'a radiant looking Heidi Montag appears to be in great spirits, as she is seen practicing Yoga with her instructor outdoors'.

American television personality and recording artist Heidi Montag has started intensive Yoga to get back in shape, after she recently underwent multiple plastic surgeries (10 surgeries on a single day) according to reports that also said Montag, 23, was recently spotted practicing Kundalini Yoga in a grassy field in Los Angeles with her instructor. She has been doing Kundalini Yoga daily.

Kundalini Yoga is a physical and meditative discipline within the tradition of Yoga, associated with the subdivision of Hatha Yoga, but also closely associated with Raja Yoga, Tantra, Ashtanga, Kriya Yoga and the sutras of Patanjali. Kundalini yoga is sometimes called ‘the Yoga of awareness’ because it awakens the ‘Kundalini’ which is the unlimited potential that already exists within every human being. The awakening of Kundalini means awakening of inner knowledge, awareness and evolved consciousness. It claims to provide extensive benefits for personal growth, health and improving mental and physical well-being, including the ability to cure asthma, diabetes, pain, stress-related diseases, healing and rehabilitating addictive behavior, and treating mental disorders.

Recently the famous Hindu chaplain Rajan Zed has extended invitation to other Hollywood celebrities to explore Kundalini or other forms of Yoga, referred as ‘a living fossil’, which he says is both a mental and physical discipline by means of which the human-soul (jivatman) unites with universal-soul (parmatman). Since around 2,000 BCE, yoga practice had been handed down from one guru to the next, Zed, who is president of Universal Society of Hinduism, added in a statement from Nevada (USA). Apart from Montag, many other Hollywood celebrities practice Yoga of one discipline or the other.

Is Heidi Montag obsessed with plastic surgery?

The reality TV show star Heidi Montag recently raised eyebrows by undergoing 10 plastic surgeries, all on a single day. Some people, including psychologists, raised the question whether it is an obsession or addiction. Incidentally it was not her first surgery. To set at rest the speculation going on in the media, Montag said in September 2007 that she had breast augmentation, collagen lip injections and rhinoplasty in April 2007.

However, though The Hills star, 23, announced that she is not addicted to cosmetic procedures, some psychologists disagree. Montag is not alone on the quest to look perfect, as there are many more celebrities who underwent plastic surgery and cosmetic treatment procedures before her. For instance, in December 2007 British model Katy Price underwent surgery in the U.S. to reduce the size of her breast implants and she also had rhinoplasty. Again she returned to Beverly Hills, California in July 2008 for corrective surgery and returned to the UK five days later showing off much smaller breasts, a size 32C. No wonder Los Angeles plastic surgery specialists are the favorites of not only the Hollywood celebrities and international celebs, but they are being approached by young (and even older) women from all walks of life.

To be on the fairer side, Montag, 23, is naturally beautiful and even though she did not undergo plastic surgery, she would have looked beautiful. But everyone likes to look better than they naturally are, or even the most beautiful in the world. For instance, as we frequently hear, some women may want to emulate famous celebs and supermodels who are always featured on television and other media. They may ask plastic surgeons to create on them celebrity body parts and features such as Nicole Kidman’s or Drew Barrymore’s nose, Angelina Jolie’s or Jessica Alba’s lips, while some others want to have cheeks of Sandra Bullock or Jennifer Garner. There are others who want to sculpt their bodies to look like Gisele Bundchen.

The question whether it is an obsession or an addiction is not new. It is being raised right from the times of Sigmund Freud, who founded the psychoanalytic school of psychology. Everyone likes to look good. So go ahead with plastic surgery or cosmetic surgery provided you are being treated by a highly reliable plastic surgeon. Also, don’t overdo it, do not go for surgeries all your life, or every now and then in which case it can be a case of obsession or addiction, or even what the psychologists call ‘body dysmorphic disorder’.
