causing her to feel an inner wave of mental warmth

My comment:

"He leaned toward her causing her to feel an inner wave of mental warmth so she could feel what he was talking about."

My references:

ola de calor = heat wave
https://www.wordreference.com/es/en/translation.asp?spen=ola%20de%20calor

I understand it as: he tries to make her feel mentally what should be felt physically. So, "causing her to feel".

I wouldn't translate "mental" by "psychological", all the more that "psicológico" exists in Spanish, so the author would have written "una oleada de calor psicológico".

I.e., she feels hot, through a mental process, and not through a physical process.

It is "mental" as opposed to "physical", I believe - at least the process used to make her feel.
