Cotton hosted Sky1's talent search Must Be The Music for one series in 2010. [15] Commercials [ edit ] At the risk of being a total fangirl, I’ve loved everything Fearne Cotton has put out to date, but Bigger Than Us has inspired and motivated me more than anything else. I hadn’t heard of many of the people that Fearne interviewed for this book and so it was refreshing to discover new people within the spiritual world. One of the biggest things I have taken away from this is prayer. Growing up in a Church of England school, I always thought prayer belonged to religion and I never really felt any connection with Christianity. Since reading this book I have been praying daily to the higher power and it has been incredibly healing already. Talking out loud and trusting something bigger then us is listening, without judgement has opened my mind. Denham, Jess (27 February 2015). "Fearne Cotton quits Radio 1 after ten years for 'family and new adventures' ". The Independent . Retrieved 28 February 2015. I’ve read all of Fearne Cotton’s books and I think that this is probably my favourite. The book is presented in an easy to read style while introducing us to things that are, truly, Bigger Than Us…… spirituality, faith, reiki, shamanism, mediumship, manifesting, and Enneagram numbers among other. I found the book enlightening, thought provoking and beautiful. Fearne has inspired me to live my life in a more thankful way, looking for the positives in life and focusing on love. I have always been drawn to alternate ways, but feel inspired to live a more spiritual, non religious, way.

In 2008, Cotton moved to the US to host The Guinness Book of Records – Live. [16] Cotton later co-hosted the NBC reality show Last Comic Standing.

How we get to that place is another story. My own rollercoaster of self-examination has been one of severe self-loathing at times and I’m so desperate to settle into a calmer plateau of self-acceptance. I assume that once I get there my relationships will be better, my love for the planet will be more respectful and my understanding of love in all its many guises will be cemented. I believe love is where it’s at when it comes to living a spiritual life of connection and meaning. It’s often the answer to so many of our problems but so often we forget it’s for us, due to feelings of unworthiness, and can’t perceive it in others as we only see our differences.

From intuition and energy to the law of attraction, ritual, prayer and signs, Fearne explores positive ideas and exercises that are available to every single one of us. I especially appreciated the section on enneagram types, 'cause boy has that helped me understand what's going on in my head.
