Summary/Abstract: This paper explores mediation as an effective tool for transforming communication and restoring relationships in places of deprivation of liberty. The study presents an innovative approach in which participants are prepared for mediation sessions through brief periods of physical exercise, breathing techniques, and relaxation. The report includes a theoretical framework, international best practices, and specific field experience from Varna Prison, where a self-regulation and relaxation program received positive feedback from participants. The proposed model demonstrates potential for long-term improvement of interpersonal relations, reduction of aggression, and the creation of a more supportive institutional environment.
