Fearne Cotton says she makes 'energy balls' with her hands to help family achieve dreams

Fearne Cotton has claimed she's able to create "energy balls" with her hands when she believes that she needs to help people.

The TV and radio presenting legend has turned her hand to writing spirituality and self-help books in recent years, penning Calm: Working through life's daily stresses to find a peaceful centre and Quiet: Silencing The brain chatter and believing you are good enough.

And in her new title Bigger Than Us , Ferne revealed that she had managed to help a family member out of a tough time with her 'energy balls'.

Her aunt Karen was facing an issue with finding a house and wasn't feeling too good about it - which is where Fearne believes she got her power.

She revealed: "Here I am, 19 years old, desperately wanting to help her in a situation I had little control over.

"I set about creating a little energy ball. I had read about this somewhere in one of the many spiritual books I was obsessed with at the time.

"Hands a few inches apart, I set about focusing on the energy between my palms. After a few minutes, I could feel a light buzzing, an undeniable pressure pulsing against my skin.

"I pulled away my hands from each other, gradually allowing more energy into the space. Over the course of about 20 minutes or so, I felt I had a beach ball-sized energy ball, bountifully placed in my hands."

Writing in her new book Bigger Than Us, Fearne explained what she did with the energy she had made.

The presenter added: "I set about filling the energy ball with my wish that my aunty could find the right house, allowing her a swift move!

"I physically pushed the ball towards the moonlit window. It felt wonderful, calming, energising."

Lo and behold, Karen rang Ferne the very next morning with good news - she had sold her house and found a new place to call home.

"I've been making energy balls ever since. Often, I don't even tell the beneficiary about it. I just send it off, headed their way. It always feels nice and hopefully helps in some way," Ferne added.

These days, the TV star presents her own podcast, Happy Place, as well as having released self-help and recipe books.

In a candid chat during Covid times, Fearne said that the stresses and pressure of high-profile presenting had affected her mental health.

She revealed at the time that she didn't "feel connected" with the entertainment industry.

"I didn’t feel like I fitted in," she admitted.
