Welcome to the Sunryze FAQ page! Here, we've compiled answers to the most common questions about our program to help you understand how Sunryze can support your journey toward healing and strengthening your marriage. If you have additional questions, feel free to reach out to Rabbi Feld directly (contact details below).
1. Who is Sunryze for?
Sunryze is ideal for anyone in a challenging marriage, especially those with a spouse affected by trauma, emotional immaturity, or relational wounds. It can empower spouses looking to rebuild trust, improve communication, cultivate more affection/attention, or find spiritual meaning in their growth. Our approach is particularly resonant for those who value Torah-based wisdom alongside practical psychology, but it's accessible to anyone open to self-reflection and compassionate change. If you're new to concepts like self-compassion or inner healing, Sunryze takes a gentle, teaching-oriented path to guide you step by step.
2. How does Sunryze help me stay calm and grounded during conflicts?
Through daily practices rooted in self-compassion, Sunryze equips you to respond rather than react when facing lashing out or emotional triggers from your spouse. Research shows that self-compassion—treating yourself with kindness during difficult moments—reduces stress, enhances emotional resilience, and improves relationship satisfaction by fostering a sense of shared humanity and mindfulness. By tuning into Hashem's loving presence within, you'll cultivate inner peace and view conflicts as opportunities for growth rather than threats. This not only keeps you centered but also models healthy behavior, potentially de-escalating tensions over time.
3. What strategies does Sunryze offer for communicating effectively with a traumatized or emotionally immature spouse?
Sunryze provides powerful, research-based strategies and cutting-edge psychology to communicate effectively despite trauma or emotional immaturity. You'll learn to recognize manipulation and relationship-destroying patterns, then blend empathy, reassurance, and emotional alignment with gentle redirection to steer interactions toward healing. Evidence-based techniques include active listening without judgment, validating your partner's feelings to build safety, and setting boundaries patiently—approaches supported by studies on supporting partners with trauma histories, which emphasize patience, education on triggers, and avoiding "fixing" behaviors to prevent escalation. These tools, drawn from trauma-informed therapy, help create a secure environment where true connection can emerge.
4. How does Sunryze work, and what makes it effective?
Sunryze is a comprehensive modality that delivers results through a structured yet flexible program. It includes deep-dive weekly live webinars with interactive Q&A sessions, plus fortified email and WhatsApp support for ongoing guidance. This setup ensures you receive personalized advice tailored to your unique relationship challenges. Our effectiveness stems from combining spiritual depth with practical application—participants report increased hope, better communication, and stronger inner resilience. As with successful programs in relationship healing, consistent application of these tools, supported by community and expert input, leads to meaningful progress.
5. What resources and support are available to Sunryze members?
As a member, you'll access your own dedicated learning portal featuring powerful multimedia presentations, videos, and a Sunryze journal companion to enhance mastery of the material. This self-paced resource helps reinforce concepts through reflection and tracking. Additionally, your first month's subscription includes one free 30-minute mentorship session with Rabbi Feld. Ongoing mentorship is available at a 50% members-only discount for as long as you're subscribed. For day-to-day support, members can reach Rabbi Feld anytime via email or WhatsApp.
6. How much does Sunryze cost, and is it risk-free?
Sunryze is very affordably priced at just $45 per month—less than a third of the cost of a single monthly therapy session, making high-quality guidance accessible without breaking the bank. You can cancel your membership at any time, and yes, we stand behind our program with a risk-free guarantee: You can request a full refund for your first month's subscription, no questions asked, within the first 14 days. This low-barrier entry aligns with best practices in online coaching programs, allowing you to experience the value firsthand before committing to a new program.
7. Is Sunryze based on Torah or psychology?
It is based on both! Sunryze is deeply grounded in Torah, integrating timeless insights from Rabbi Samson Raphael Hirsch—whose view of marriage is a divine mission for mutual growth—and the RAMCHAL, whose works on spiritual ethics emphasize inner refinement and compassion. These are seamlessly blended with evidence-based psychology to create a balanced approach that heals the soul and the relationship. While spiritually oriented, the program is practical and inclusive, focusing on universal principles of empathy and resilience.
8. How can I contact Rabbi Feld or get more information?
Rabbi Yosef Feld is readily available to support you. Members can reach him anytime through email at yoseffeld@sunryze.me or WhatsApp at 1-203-578-6208 for personalized guidance. Even if you're not yet a member, feel free to contact him to clarify how Sunryze can help your specific situation—we're here to answer questions and provide clarity without obligation.
9. What if Sunryze isn't right for me?
We understand every relationship is unique, and Sunryze may not be the perfect fit for everyone. If, after trying the program (within our 14-day refund window), you feel it's not a good fit, we're happy to issue a full refund, no questions asked. Many participants find that the blend of spiritual and psychological tools delivers breakthroughs when traditional therapy has fallen short. Your success is our priority.
10. Can couples join the Sunryze program together?
Yes, absolutely! Couples can, and should, participate in the SUNRYZE program together when possible. However, the beauty of SUNRYZE is that it is very effective even if only one motivated spouse starts the program. By applying the principles unilaterally—such as healing your insecurities so you stay “calm in the storms”, turning toward your partner, and managing conflict constructively—one partner can initiate meaningful shifts in the relationship dynamic. Over time, these changes often inspire the other spouse to join, creating a positive ripple effect. The wonderful thing about couples joining together is that there is no extra charge for the spouse of the primary member—both can access the whole program as a team.
