Every day, education, at its different levels and in its different spheres, confirms the need for emotional education to be established as part of the school curriculum to contribute its multiple, benefits to the training of future generations and of the teachers who accompany them in their training process. We could even point it out as a necessary knowledge to be acquired by families, so that their sons and daughters receive it from birth and throughout their lives.

Of the various definitions, we will stick with that of Bisquerra and Pérez (2012), teachers and researches at the university of Barcelona:

Emotional education is a continuous and permanent educational process that aims to promote the development, with the aim of empowering them for life and increasing personal and social well-being. Emotional competences should be understood as a type of basic life skills, essential for the integral development of the personality. They are an indispensable complement to the cognitive development on which education has focused throughout the 20th century.
