Lindsay Lohan turns to Buddhism for peace in jailTroubled star Lindsay Lohan has turned to Buddhism in a bid to get her through the period behind the bars. The 24-year-old actress who has been sentenced to 90 days in prison for violating the probation terms of her 2007 drugs and alcohol case, has decided to seek solace in the religion in a bid to conquer her demons, Daily Star reported online.

"Lindsay''s been fascinated in the Buddhist faith for a while as several of her inner circle follow the teachings of Buddhism. Lindsay''s devastated about the jail sentence and has been crying non-stop.

She''s been told to seek spiritual guidance and find her inner peace," a source said. "She''s decided to study the art of meditation so she can stay calm through breathing techniques while she''s in jail," the source added.

The ''Mean Girls'' star is not the only A-lister to seek peace in Buddhism at a time of need and despair as wayward comedian Russell Brand, too did the same. Other Hollywood celebrities who follow Buddhism are Orlando Bloom, Keanu Reeves, and Jennifer Lopez.
