The model seeks to transform and direct emotional energyto achieve three things:
• Personal growth.
• Healthier relationships.
• A more balanced and ethical society.
The Emotional Ecology Model from the International Institute of Emotional Ecology, originated in Barcelona, is an emotional education and management model that proposes understanding emotions as if they were part of an ecosystem. It was created by psychologists Mercè Conangla and Jaume Soler in 2002.
The central idea is that emotions are energy and that each person must learn to manage them responsibly and sustainably, just as we care for the environment. According to this approach, the way we manage our emotions impacts us, others, and the social environment. That is why it speaks of a “human emotional ecosystem”.
In simple words:
If we manage our emotions well → the human ecosystem improves. If we manage them poorly → we generate “emotional pollution” (conflicts, stress, violence, etc.).
• Personal growth.
• Healthier relationships.
• A more balanced and ethical society.
Emotional Ecology proposes forming people called CAPA, which stands for:
• Creative
• Loving
• Peaceful
• Autonomous
That is, people responsible for their emotional world and aware of the impact of their actions on others.
The model works on four major emotional areas:
• Territories – our personal spaces and boundaries.
• Emotional energy – how we use our emotions.
• Emotional climate – the emotional environment we create.
• Bonds – the quality of our relationships.
This model is used in different areas:
• Education (schools and universities).
• Family.
• Health and wellness.
• Companies and organizations.
• Personal development.
The idea is that when the person improves, their entire environment improves.
Emotional Ecology is a model that teaches how to manage emotions consciously, responsibly, and ethically, understanding that every emotion we express has an impact on the “human ecosystem”.
We have partnerships with leading companies in education and technology worldwide.
