Welcome to this ElayaaHUB Spanish conversation event!
Today we’ll explore how to develop emotional intelligence in Spanish—not just by learning vocabulary for emotions, but by learning how to name what you feel, express it clearly, and connect with others more deeply.
Whether you want to speak about frustration, joy, gratitude, sadness, or excitement—clarity begins with awareness.
This session will help you identify your own emotional patterns and express them in Spanish with more depth, honesty, and grace. Because every emotion is a message—and language is how we honor it.

Beyond Language ✨
"Feelings don’t need to be fixed—they need to be felt, seen, and spoken.
Emotional intelligence isn’t about control—it’s about connection. When you learn to name what’s happening inside you, you become more available to yourself and others.
In Spanish, each emotion is an invitation to explore your truth. And every time you speak it with honesty, you dissolve shame, build connection, and reclaim presence.
You’re not just learning vocabulary—you’re learning to listen to your heart in a new language."
Emotional Practice Ritual
-
Each day, write down one emotion you’ve felt—in Spanish. Use: “Hoy me sentí…”
-
Add one sentence about what triggered that feeling. “Porque…”
-
Notice how naming the emotion changes your relationship with it. Awareness creates space.
-
Practice validating another person’s feeling in Spanish. “Te entiendo. Debe haber sido difícil.”
The more emotionally fluent you become, the more connected and free you’ll feel in every language.
