MONTH OF MAY 2023

Hi, I’m not sure if this email will reach you, but I really wanted to express my heartfelt thanks for your response. I’ve been reading it over and over. Each time, reading offers new insights. Writing this email brings tears to my eyes. It’s been a challenging and lonely journey, and I don’t know how I would have made it without people like you. Thank you so much.
Good evening,I wanted to say thank you so very much for all of your help and support. I’ve been SEWing and its so good. I see a difference in myself, my marriage, and my relationships with my family, friends and colleagues. I never realized how selfish and self centered I am. Geesh! I actually catch myself – Stop. The arguing has reduced immensely and I catch myself and apologize quickly. I’m trying to own my behavior and my words and think evaluate and act with wisdom. It getting way better on my end. My husband said you’re changing, sweetheart! I’m really grateful. I have been thinking like this at the office. I’m more patient and trying to be more understanding of the people I supervise. I realized that I was not a very kind of boss. I used to be but then I started to allow my feelings to control my thoughts and actions. Well, I thought I should share.
Dear Paul and the TMF Team, I have already begun your course for Marriage success for Eternal Happiness and Love, but I am taking this opportunity to reach out to say Thank you for your incredible work and mission which will profoundly re-shape the world we live in! I am in week three of The Marriage Foundation Course and would like to share that I too, like many others, am experiencing a nearly seamless, almost quantum state of reconnecting with my Husband resembling the sharing of the best part of ourselves that occurred naturally and authentically at the beginning of our relationship over 20 years ago. The difference being that through this Course I am developing and urged on in growing greater selfless Love and Compassion which is opening the door to a greater understanding of who I truly am and who my Husband truly is– apart from our lower nature– Our authentic selves beginning to shine and intertwine again where we feel a renewed sense of joy, enthusiasm and gratitude for this gift of life, I imagine this as an expression of ‘the two shall become one’. And this along with a stronger desire and acceptance and healing-love but much more deeply and profoundly than in the beginning. And all of this, as well as, a renewed child-like quality of faith and innocence as felt in early childhood including the assurance that everything is bright and possible and will be okay. These recent experiences encourage, strengthen and prompt me to continue to work harder at the Course material which has become clear is more than simply a course but a calling for Life.Thank you so much!The Love of the Most High God be upon you.
Dear Counselor, I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for the transformative impact your course has had on my life. Through your guidance, I have learned to love my husband unconditionally and have been diligently applying SEW in my daily interactions. This journey has brought us closer, even in the aftermath of his infidelity.
Oh a million thanks, i enjoy listening to Paul and his content which changed my life entirely and am learning a lot. Again a million thanks.
Thoroughly appreciating Paul’s words of wisdom. I’m on week 5 and my partner/wife has subscribed to her course and I think it is having a similar impact. We are both in our 60s with grown kids and we need each other now more than ever. All the crap that we’ve accumulated over the years can fall away with Paul’s approach. I think it is making a difference and look forward to experiencing the rest of his program and the benefits that come with it.
TMF saved my marriage and my life. It enabled me to forget the past, no matter what happened. It lifted a big weight off me. There were no feelings of resentment, bitterness or hurt anymore. It didn’t matter how I was treated. It didn’t affect or phase me. There was a free feeling and the ability to rise above it all. No more subconsciously blaming or being angry inside.
I have worked very hard at using the SEW technique to stay in the energy of love and have been loving, compassionate and kind toward my husband. I know we became disconnected because we are both doctors who got so burnt out and I was not connected to my heart. I am fully connected to my heart now because of this course. He has asked me to join him on walks with the dog, and for his birthday dinner. A month ago after I was away for a week with my daughters he told me how good I looked and gave me a tender kiss on the lips when I went to hug him goodbye. I can feel his love
Hello there, I am just writing to let you know how much value I am getting from the course which I started last week. It isn’t easy to train my mind and use the SEW method but I am working on it. My goal is to have a fabulous marriage filled with love and happiness. My marriage has not been in the bestest of states for decades (we are coming up to our 30th anniversary next year). My husband thought that we should have quit ages ago since we aren’t compatible or have a connection etc etc and the reason why we have not is that we are both afraid. He seemed to have checked out ages ago on some level. I, on the other hand strongly believe that there is a divine reason for us to stay together and I guess TMF was God’s way of helping. It has certainly came at the right moment.
Your customer service is BEYOND impressive!… Particularly late on a weekend evening! Thank you so much again.
I just want to testify! I am committed to the SEW method and began seeing results right away and have been so inspired and motivated because it works!! But this success is on another level!!! My husband had not asked me out on a date in at least 2 years. We went separate ways and tolerated each other from a distance. This morning he asked me if I wanted to go to one of my favorite restaurants and I screamed saying you’re asking me out, yes, I’m so excited, and he smiled. It was priceless! Our marriage is being restored and it’s wonderful to have tools that work!
Thank you for your encouragement… it means a lot to me that you would take the time to write back on your Saturday and the responses are much more helpful than other counselors I have seen.
I just wanted to write and thank you guys from the bottom of my heart. From day 1 of using your program and implementing SEW in my life my marriage was transformed. If you would have told me it would be this drastic of a change I would not have believed it. When I started this course I was separated from my husband. In 3 weeks we went from the brink of divorce to being best friends again. Every good and positive thing that I have implemented from this program has been reciprocated back to me by my husband. I am so astonished and happy to have something that is actually working and giving us results. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for teaching me how to be married and how to change my life for the better. I am so excited to continue to learn more and I will recommend your program to everyone I can. Again thank you so much! May God bless all your hard work!!
Thank you so much, especially for the breakdown of how. I listen to PF everyday on YouTube, too, and listened to one probably 50 times yesterday. Now I love my husband so much, sometimes it brings me to tears and for me, that is how I know it is real :) Thank you again for the helpful reply. I have said “STOP” probably 200 times since I woke up this morning and will continue becoming more conscious of what goes on in there!!!Blessings to YOU!!!
To TMF: I first got the course about 4-5 years ago. My marriage was being stressed to the limit and I felt like my wife was crashing us into the rocks. I got about ¾ of the way through the program and things improved, for a while. We had another kid, things were a little less stressful, and so on. A few months ago, I found myself witnessing/participating in a toxic situation that was circling the drain. My wife was being vile and aggressive and ready to leave. It was rock bottom. The SEW technique was not working; my wife just thought I was ignoring her or otherwise being cowardly. Then I remembered the course and fired it back up. Within 15 minutes, I felt pretty ashamed. I had allowed the drive to survive to completely overcome the sanctity of marriage. I immediately understood that by being driven to survive the moment, I was in fact being selfish. The idea that forgetting to pick up a towel translated into my wife’s needs for stability and security not being met was something that I had not thought of. I felt empowered that there were things I could do to improve things, even if I felt my wife was torpedoing our relationship.
Our culture does not lend itself to taking responsibility for our own actions and praying that God will change the heart of our spouses. I was so embarrassed, ashamed, and saddened that I lost sight of being accountable for my own actions as a husband and trusting in God to improve my relationship. I also felt completely free when I realized that I could only control my portion of our relationship and if my marriage failed, there was nothing more I could do. I didn’t focus on my wife’s deficiencies, I instead worked on eliminating the low-hanging fruit like picking up, listening to details she believed were important, and putting real work into meshing our parenting styles. Things improved in my relationship almost immediately. The toxicity has continued to dwindle. I have awareness that I was tone deaf to before. Thank you again for your course. I saw my whole life flashing before my eyes, and your course slowed things down and honed in on causes of problems, not just superficial band aids. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who is serious about repairing a God-centered marriage!
I learned many secrets. I was able to have peace inside and have hope for our marriage, despite how he treats me. Now, our marriage has changed. He is a totally different man. He is awesome. After 3 decades of suffering, I would never expect this miracle…….and it keeps getting better. How constantly thankful I am for TMF.
God Bless You, this course is definitely not based on the way of the world today and that is what helps me press on and keep fighting for my marriage. So here is a copy of the email that is speaking to my heart….
I am very sincere when I say, thank you! I went back to the beginning of the course and I listen, read and I am taking notes. And then I listen again. I even journal every night and right down everything I am doing that I know I need to work harder on.
Thank you! Just wanted to send you gratitude as I work through the material. It is amazing to listen to this and keep working to actually live this out in my life. Take good care!
I have been spending a lot of time on the course the past 2 days and it has been so reassuring and calming. Paul’s teaching makes such good sense to me. So enlightening. Today was the first day in the past 2 months that I didn’t cry or feel panicky. I haven’t seen my husband much because of his work schedule but I feel much more at ease around him and much more loving and compassionate towards him. I am so grateful for this course.
Thank you so much. I am so glad I signed up with you guys. Your advice is fantastic!
I wanted to write in and give a progress update. Things have been going really well! We’re not just getting along but really enjoying each other’s company and joking around and laughing again
It feels like the momentum is shifting into the positive. I know I have to keep alert and keep watching my mind. It’s finally starting to sink in that I am equipped to do this and succeed. I have continued my daily devotional and scripture reading and praying whenever I feel angry or overwhelmed. I truly believe that SEW has not only made a difference in my marriage but also in my career.
Hello, I wanted to thank you again for your program. It has really helped me. I am making progress using the SEW technique and focusing on love. My husband is no longer sleeping in the guest room. He came back to our bed 4 nights ago
What I have noticed is that I am focusing on LOVE and POSITIVITY.
In all of my research in looking for how to overcome our issues and have the best relationship possible I have not found any approach like yours. They are all pretty much the same which is why I was drawn to …as I have tried other things that either don’t work …. Thank you again.
Hello, I just want to take a moment to say thank you for all of the marriages that will be saved because of this program. I knew on a certain level how crucial it is to renew the mind as part of the believer’s lifestyle. But, I had no idea how much control the mind has without willful restraint. I now understand that I have control and can watch my mind so I can control my mouth.. I’m excited about building my home with understanding and compassion from the heart. I choose to reverse the loyalty that served my selfish desires and decide what is appropriate, edifying language. Lastly, I don’t have the pressure of trying to convince my husband how important it is for him to see things my way..what a relief! I have the liberty of working on me and maintaining the right kind of power from the heart. These teachings are changing my life!
…In fact, The Marriage Foundation’s teachings are more helpful to me than any other advice I’ve received in my lifetime. I owe every ounce of happiness today to your teachings.
Thank you very much. This made me smile. I do need more smiles. I appreciate you🙏❤️❤️❤️
I had proof today that when the student is ready the teacher will appear. In this course, I am reminded I am paying for my own karma but I can grow past it to have my marriage back. It brought me to crocodile tears. I look forward to AMAZING growth. Thank you!!!!!
Thank you for the encouragement, I appreciate your help. I Need to just relax and not be so serious about everything… Thank you again!!This course is way more than I expected. It really hits home with me, I can see all things that I have been doing wrong and it is helping me to change and look at things so differently. Even though I get lost sometimes, your words of wisdom get me back on track. Thank you
God bless your company! I am not far into this but I feel so blessed to have this information and knowledge. It is so beneficial to me and for me and my relationships. ❤️ Thanks for this course!
Thank you so much for you help. I agree with you and I don’t know where I would be right now without this course. All the counselors are so very helpful. Again, thank you!!! Sometimes when you go to sleep you will find the next day you have such a calmness come over you and you wonder why you got so upset. I have taken several notes from each video/text and it helps to always go back and review them to keep everything fresh in your heart.Sincerely,Janie
Thank You, I am so very thankful for all the help I receive from all the TMF Counselor’s and even though you don’t provide names I just want to personally thank “YOU” for this response, it really talked to my heart in a big way and I just keep reading it over and over. I have spent so much time prior to finding the TMF course looking for answers. I literally spent months reading articles online, buying other courses that never really helped me like the TMF course. I blamed myself for my hubby’s pornography use, you know, “your not good enough” “you don’t look like any of the porn stars he always looks at” etc….but for the first time these words you wrote He is not you, nor are his bad habits your problem. The mind wants you to think it is your problem but why give your power, power that can used to master your mind to feel joy, to worry of any kind?Wow, for the first time my mind really believes this no matter how many times in the past I heard it. Of course, I also agree that I was not loving with “Unconditional Love” and I am really seeing a big difference when I do. The small kindnesses that I show that I thought did not mean much, like a big hug, a smile, being positive, letting him know how proud I am of him, (all with sincerity) these things are SO powerful and when I act loving toward him he response back in a big way. I am literally taking all this information in the course and sucking it up like a sponge. When I am done, I will be giving one of the best reviews.
Thank you again, I am kind of mad at myself, I let all my progress go out the window today and reverted back to my old ways of dealing with things. I told my hubby I was sick and spent the day in my room but I know he knew it was not the truth. In desperation I went to the TMF site and found an article on “How To Forgive Your Husband” and this paragraph set the bell off in my mind…. “What you have to do is come from your heart, which is superior to your mind, so you will clearly see your husband’s actions for what they were; self-destructive escape attempts…No, it was not you he was escaping, but he was unable to handle what is on his plate. Like you, he was never taught the basics of married life, or, if we are to be totally honest, neither of you were taught the basics of how to live; at all. Few people are prepared for life, and this is what happens.”
Yes, you’re right. I knew that was the answer and I was venting. It’s been a long time of coping without any hope and I’ve had no one to talk to about it, sadly because of the nature of my work (I’m a minister and it gets complicated). For me and my wife the gospel is the answer for everything but so often Christian help is void of brutally honest, real world application without endless contrived anecdotes, which is why I so appreciate Paul’s perspective and method. It’s a perfect marriage (no pun intended) with the macro answer to relationship problems that is the gospel, which is all about grace and unconditional love. I feel like Paul gives the abstract Christian concepts a concrete form … besides Christ Himself. My wife, who loathes almost all marriage material, is resonating with Breaking the Cycle and loves Paul’s no-nonsense approach. She has agreed to the course for women. I will purchase it and keep pressing on. Thank you.
Thank you for your quick response, you have no idea how much you have helped me. I just feel so awful because I walked in on him again. I have to go back and re-read all my notes and listen again to Mr. Friedman….I never thought this was going to be so hard, but I will keep pressing forward with the SEW technique because if I don’t change “me” then things will never get better. Thank you again, this course and Your words of Wisdom are a God sent.
We have spent five years in Christian marriage counseling.We have spent literally hundreds of hours, a weekend retreat, 10 week post retreat weekly classes. Nothing has healed the hurt. I first bought your books. They were very encouraging. But the course is helping me get the correct perspective plus a clear path and I’m more peaceful in my thinking already.
Please pass my gratitude to Paul. I am in the beginning and I am already feeling better inside, even while facing the hard realizations. I can see how I can change and how things can get better. Thank you.
One day, when I am past this and SEWing more, I want to come work there! ? Take good care and thank you.
Thank you for the support. ? I got through it last night and did not dig a hole and am feeling better. Going to keep going over lesson one. I am starting to see a new way of being.
Hello!Just want to say that the SEW method has really changed things for me already.Thank you.
Dear Marriage Foundation and Mr. Paul Freedman, It’s working already! The peace I’m beginning to feel is nearly tangible. The Holy Indifference, The SEW, the Give and Give, the rejection of all the Western psychology that has been drummed into my head, the Venues, the SEW, the SEW, the SEW, the dropping expectations of my Bride, Unconditional Love, the truth that our Soul has a Mind and a Body, Controlling my thinking and making it positive, the Soulmate, our individual Freewill. Its all so radical, but its radical unconditional love! Thank you for the tough love lessons. I needed to hear it! It’s all working and I’m only in week four. She knows something is different, but it’s still too new. Thank you for the HOPE. Thank you for the Encouragement to NEVER GIVE UP! Thank you for enlightening me concerning the reasons why the hundreds of hours of Christian Couples Counseling did not work… it was never going to work.With much Love and Respect,JohnSalinas, California
Thank you so much for your YouTube channel videos, I have already taken the decision to end my marriage but today I listened to your videos and I immediately changed my mind all thanks to you? I’m looking forward to buying your course for women.
Thank you it is so nice to have access to Tmf professionals to keep me on the right path with all your responses that are so clear and easy to understand but sometimes very bitter to swallow : I love it! Nothing like a good dose of truth!Thank you!Andre
I learned many secrets. I was able to have peace inside and have hope for our marriage, despite how he treats me. Now, our marriage has changed. He is a totally different man. He is awesome. After 3 decades of suffering, I would never expect this miracle…….and it keeps getting better. How constantly thankful I am for TMF.
TMF saved my marriage and my life. It enabled me to forget the past, no matter what happened. It lifted a big weight off me. There were no feelings of resentment, bitterness or hurt anymore. It didn’t matter how I was treated. It didn’t affect or phase me. There was a free feeling and the ability to rise above it all. No more subconsciously blaming or being angry inside.
Now that I am taking the course, I know I shouldn’t have done so much but at the time I was hurting so badly and wishing I could make my eyes unsee. I now try to “put it behind me” according to the videos from TMF. I am so thankful that I found Mr. Friedman’s videos! It led me to the marriage help course and I am on The Anatomy of a Fight, Part 2 right now. Thank you again
I am using sew. My behavior has turned around. I stay out of my feelings and think before I speak. I think positive thoughts and bless him in my thoughts. I am not feeling anxious or fear anymore. I am feeling secure and calm. I don’t know where we are headed as a couple but I am giving it all I have. The sew has made me a happy person. It has saved me. Hopefully in time it will save our marriage.
I wrote into you Sept. 12 asking about how to become the most wonderful wife to my husband because I had found out he slept with someone else. Long story short, I ended up with Trichomoniasis ( which is a not so common STD) . I have not been with anyone else, so when I asked him . He pretty much confessed. I got upset etc and we kinda split up for a month. During the month, I realized I still loved him. We have 2 children together and although we are not “legally ” married, we considered ourselves married in our hearts ♥ I began searching for videos on unconditional love and TMF popped up. I felt like I resonated with everything Mr. Paul said. I wrote in and you suggested the course. I began taking it. I’m only half way through and it has done wonders for us. I feel like we’re on our way to becoming best friends again with the benefit of being lovers too.
Mr. Friedman suggests in the marriage course that we text our husband’s often and compliment them, flirt with them….but he also said use what works for you…my question is that if I constantly compliment or flirt …am I “chasing ” him and thus creating little or no room for him to chase. Thank you again. I love watching the videos, they have restored the love.
Dearest TMF Counselor,
All I can say is …Wow !! Again you have blown my mind and opened my heart. I’m rereading your email to fully grasp what you are saying. I agree with you. I feel like I need to go into prayer. Pray for strength and wisdom and pray for my heart to soften. And pray for my Cory, May all of God’s Blessings pour down on him and his life . I know and God knows my heart. He knows how I love him. At one point in time, Cory considered me his Angel ? so let’s reclaim that spot that’s rightfully mine and rightfully so! Lol And on that note…Blessings to you dear counselor, Blessings to your family and Blessings to Mr. Friedman. Have a beautiful night,
Thank you very much and yes this does explain things very well and answers my question ? You can post this review where ever you feel fit (change the punctuation as necessary as I’m not great with grammar and some wording).
My wife and I were seeing a marriage counselor in our home town with little to no success. My wife shared TMF podcast with me on “How to stop arguing with your spouse”. I loved what Paul Friedman all had to say in the podcast (everything he said made perfect sense) so I signed up for the marriage course. My wife did too after I asked her if she would consider taking the course too. The course was and is the true fix to our marriage. The information provided within the courses is invaluable. I can’t thank TMF enough for offering such an amazing approach to making a marriage work. Truly remarkable and I am forever grateful! Thank you ~ Thank you ~ Thank you!!!
Hi, I started the marriage foundation on a Monday 2 months ago and already started noticing small results with the interaction between both my husband and I. It’s been a very pleasant environment for us where our interaction has been very soft instead of matter of fact. I have been applying the S.E.W method not only with my husband but also my kids, parents etc. It makes me a happier person, I realize and not always be negative. Thank you all!!
I was reading books and attending church but My sister in law told me about this program. She said it worked for her and I am married to her sister. So, I’m trying it with hope and prayer.
Hello Thank you Paul, I have found the course to be invaluable. I have read motivational books before by Tony Robbins, Rhonda Byrne, etc and I have never understood the concept monitoring my mind the way you put it. I GOT IT NOW! Thanks. It would be wonderful if you would consider making children friendly videos of these teachings so I can share them with my kids, i.e. where the emphasis is not on marriage as such rather general life skills:-)
Knowing that I should never offer advice really changed my mood to acceptance and trust that all things will work out. At times I used to try to teach my husband and give him advice. I stopped doing that. He changed more when I didn’t give advice at all compared to when I sometimes did. Learned just teach simply by example. A husband will never learn from advice and teaching, only by example.
Hi, thank you so much – this means so much. I felt so alone in these matters. We dated only for 2 months before we got married, so in many ways I am blaming myself for not discussing these important issues (mostly the having female friends bit) before we agreed to get married. I knew that the infatuation period would eventually end and that the honeymoon phase would also pass – but I never thought he was the kind of man that would make some of the decisions that he has made. I believed that he would not cheat, he isn’t that kind of person….isn’t that so cliché? He is a family man and I do believe that he sincerely loves me. When I found out about these conversations (they were via text message and these happened before we got married), it was after we had been married only 5 days. I let it bother me for about 4 weeks and finally confessed to him that I had looked through his phone and found these messages. Now that I am taking the course, I know I shouldn’t have done that. At the time, though, I was hurting so badly and wishing I could make my eyes unsee these words. We have talked about it all and have (mostly) patched up my hurt feelings and his pain of not being trusted and the betrayal of going through his phone. I was working to “put it behind me”, and that’s what let me to the videos from TMF. I am so thankful that I found Mr. Friedman’s videos, then the course! I am on The Anatomy of a Fight, Part 2 right now. Thank you again for helping me.
Can you please make sure that Paul gets to read this? I was raised by parents who loved each other but fought a LOT. Paul is AMAZING. if My parents knew this info that Paul teaches, it could have been so life changing for me. I am terribly insecure and I have been very critical of my husband for years. I find now that I have acted much like my mother. I have also acted like my father did when my parents had fights, especially when I would have fights with my husband and then leave. My father used to do that. My father died 21 years ago, and we got married 2 years after that. My mother is 82 and she is hateful, she suffered a lot of trauma in her life and she never had help. I have not spoken to her in 2 years because she was so hostile to me the last time I saw her. My brother denied anything is wrong, so for my own sake, I let him go too. I have not spoken to my brother in 2 years either. Now my mother in law is also in the a rehab, and she is 81. so I feel like a big dumbass because now, after being married for 19 years, now I finally appreciate my husband so much. I have worked so hard to help our kids, our youngest has autism and he had seizures when he was a baby. But now, I am finally getting the hang of how to be a wife. Thank you so much for all your terrific advice when I write in. We did a marriage preparation class at our church when we got married, but it was NOTHING like this. I learned some really crappy stuff from living in a dysfunctional family or for whatever reason, and Now I cannot love my husband and kids enough. Thank You Paul Friedman and to all of you at Marriage foundation. You have helped me be a better wife and my family is benefitting too!!! This is a much healthier place for our kids now. I hope my kids did not suffer from all the time when I was being over critical of my husband, doing the wrong things. Its so sweet now, my husband takes walks with me on his day off from work and its like he is my boyfriend again! Im delighted to have the man I married, and he recently saw a cardiologist and got a clean bill of health, he has high blood pressure but its not bad and we are both working on better diet and more exercise, but LOVE is the best medicine!!! after a couple weeks of being happy, he had a check up and his blood pressure has already come down. I dont know why I did not find your you tube videos and then the course sooner, but WOW!!! you have made such a difference!!! I am sure that the SEW method is helpful at home, with my marriage and I can truly see how using this method will be helpful with all of my relationships with every important person in my life. and our youngest is also named Joseph! I feel like I am now learning things after being married for 19 years and at 55 years old that I should have learned wayyy back before we got married. Thank You Paul Friedman, and thank you everyone at The Marriage Foundation!!! Im sending lots of love to you all!!!!!with love and blessings
Hi there My name is -a and I bought the course in September. I want to begin by thanking you. I feel that Mr. Paul Friedman’s videos have helped tremendously. I have realized my part in contributing to our problems. I’m about halfway through the course . And I guess today is just one of those days where I’m having a bit of a hard time. I’m not sure if I’m just emotional because my cycle might come on. Any suggestions on staying on track on the days that you may feel a little off? I guess I could start with making myself happy. I’m laughing at loud because I’m imagining Mr. Friedman saying something to that extent.

Thank you in advance
I do find the course valuable and will follow it as directed. I am also reading Breaking the Cycle and hope that is ok. I do want to convey a thank you message to Paul. These materials have at least given me hope. And that in turn has given me some additional strength to fight for my marriage.
I am so grateful for finding this course, it has changed my life and saved my marriage. My experience of the course was as follows; I Believe that the change will happen and I will stick to the course no matter what happens on the outside, it’s really all inner work The significance change happened for me when I remembered my marriage vows, that I love my husband no matter what and I stopped expecting a response that was for my benefit, I completely let go of that expectation and all of a sudden there was a change, and all was good again. When I realized my part in my marriage the weight of my actions were heavy, but I put that aside and focused wholly on my happiness no matter what the outer conditions were. I also followed the course guidance and went of the anatomy of a fight and the SEW videos so many times until it went into my sub conscious. I am so grateful, there are no words. We tried everything, 3 counsellors previously, but it was the opposite that I needed. I use the course and re watch videos when I need guidance or reassurance that I was on the right path. Warm regards,
Things have been trending in a much better direction recently. I still go through a lot of ups and downs (internally) but I have not been expressing those issues externally. I am still in the process of practicing SEW (which I know will be a lifelong endeavor) but I can say that I am slowly seeing my thought process change and while I am still not where I would like to be with my attitude personally I can say that I have seen growth. There have been some moments in our marriage as well that have given me reason to be optimistic. I have definitely seen a change in her since I have started my journey. Things are trending in the right direction but I am coming to terms with the issues in our marriage. I know now this is a process and things will not happen over night.
Good morning and thank you! I repeated your default reaction phrase over and over and over again in my head yesterday. It lowered my anxiety and by doing so I realized its effectiveness in lessening my anxiety, and prevented me from starting a fight. It changed my mood. I will keep using it. Thank you again.
Have you read Napolean Hill’s Outwitting the Devil? Very interesting that Paul figured it all out before the book was released. Thanks for all you do
Hello, It’s been a long year but my husband and I are doing really well for the most part. We’ve been back together for about 8 months and are very much in love again due to this program. We have such a beautiful relationship now. I have everything I wanted
I’ve been following the Marriage foundation coursework for about three months now and it’s been fantastic and my husband who out of the blue announced six months ago that he was not attracted to me anymore decided to stay at home with me so we could give our marriage a try. After (me) doing all the work, his was absolutely mind blown by how lovely I am to be around and he enjoys all of his time with me. The marriage foundation work keeps taking me to the next level.
I have to take counseling because I lost my 2 year old son last year and CPS was asking for the certificate to show proof of my healing and that I have been getting help. Even though the course for men is for helping with marriage which is why I originally took it. I have found out that it’s helped me with a lot more than just in my marriage. It has been helping me heal as I continue to live without my baby boy to find more peace and happiness in life without him. The course has helped me in a lot of different ways and I still continue to go back through the videos every week to try to continue to keep getting better.
I agree with you. I realize its impact and thanks to y’all’s course and learning the sew technique and learning how to control my mind and how I think. It’s really helped me a lot in a lot of different ways. Even helped make me a better dad for my other 3 kids. I’ve been needing the changes that y’all have helped me make for several years now. Even if things with my wife and I doesn’t work out and it wasn’t meant to be. I now know that I’m ok with that and that I’ll be ok and I can still find peace and happiness even if not with my wife.
I learned so much and my marriage of 32 years is better than ever. I know that God led me to this program and I’m so grateful. Thank you and God bless!
I realize the importance of SEW and the depth that it takes you need to make this work. 10. Hi there, After the shock of some family traumatic issues I have survived, and I have come back to this course, to get the SEW right. I realized the importance of SEW and the depth that it takes you and how I need to make this work. I am still struggling with the “noise” when I don’t follow the system. So I’m in the homework session!! And will make a priority. This will be added in my morning awakening routine. Thank you for still being here and honoring my membership.
Hi there, After the shock of family issues (tramautic) our issues. I have survived, however my husband is so angry for the way everybody behaved including being angry with me. I have come back to this, to get the SEW right. It’s in there but was not computing with all the noise.
Hello, I have been using the SEW technique and I am approaching the end of week 2. It has really transformed me and I can see a difference in my marriage. My husband’s wall he had up started to melt a little. And he even wanted to be intimate with me after 2 months. I am excited about my change and it really resonates with me. I finally feel like my true self in being a loving wife!
Now that I have been doing the SEW method, the mood has definitely changed in my home. I noticed my husbands wall was starting to come down just a little. We were intimate a couple of nights in a row.
Hello. How long will I have access to my course? I’m hopeful to have lifetime access as I would like to be able to continue reviewing forever! Thank you.
Please tell Paul that all of you have turned my relationship around and I’m doing great for him on all fronts. Plus, the multi part YouTube series Paul did helped me a great deal!! Thank you!!!!
I wanted to thank you so much for replying to my messages. Your words always speak to my heart. God uses you in special ways to pick me up so I can continue fighting for my marriage. That woman is facing a great opponent because I am not going to let her steal MY man ✊ I will work on filling my heart with joy in despite of my circumstances. Thanks again!! I feel better tonight! Reminding me to talk to the Lord renewed my spirit too.
I’ve been doing pretty good by practicing SEW method with my words and actions. My husband and I have been spending more time together. in the last week for the first time in a while and really no arguing, I asked him to help me get groceries. He told me he’d be down in a second and took over 30 minutes. I feel I handled it well because I didn’t blow up his phone ?. It’s a start but clearly working. Thanks
Hi there! It’s been a while. My husband and I got back together in October 2023 after being separated since march 2023. We’ve done good for the most part. I’ve made improvements and things are going well as we’ve both made changes based on what I’ve learned in the course for women.
“I just wanted to write and tell of an incident that happened today.I had a friend mention that she has noticed a change in me lately ( she is not the only one to say so) .She also told me that she was learning from my example of not letting things bother her that she has no control over.I thought this was a wonderful testament to this program that not only are others seeing a change in me , but it is making a positive impact on them.It gives me hope. My Husband hasn’t said anything or responded to me YET, but if others see my change, he has seen my change, and it will only be a matter of time before my change affects our relationship.By the way I love it when Paul includes in his lessons the positive affirmations that I CAN save my marriage, and that it will be wonderful.Thank you,”

Bethany

“I had just literally read an article about the 12 signs your marriage is over and it was all very doom and gloom and negative. Like there was no control in the outcome. Then i am so glad i clicked on your link, suddenly you were going through all the signs and how they are recoverable. it was actually positive, I felt an immediate lift off my shoulders.”

Ingrid

“I am currently on a program supporting me for sugar addiction. This program is also encouraging. So I am currently in the mindset of self improvement which is why i think your program spoke to me so profoundly”

Tamara

“I now always try to understand my husband. And he is so kind and always tries to understand me. We mostly utilize our knees in prayer and exercise patience. My analytical side felt maybe our problems had something to do with our gender difference; now I discovered most communication is miscommunication because we see things differently as men and woman. We found marriage counseling wasn’t beneficial for us so I tried your spiritual, self help way. We need to protect our sacred space and now stay private about our relationship. This is so wonderful.”

Mary

“I was searching for something for my sister, who was facing divorce, so saving marriage and divorce. While praying I realized she and I too needed the right kind of support, so I feel the prayer led me to this course. Anyhow I bought your book at that time then the course and seeing how much the differences improved our marriages now I want to help others and become a TMF counselor.”

Dianne

“I don’t have the ability to communicate like Paul, but truths attracted me. Truth will always attract people. As I invested time in understanding Paul’s course and approach, I found that it aligned with my deeper feelings about marriage, and what it can be. It aligns with my belief that marriage is a sacred institution that is / can be misunderstood and/or trivialized (or my made up word – transactionalized) . Sobering but Paul is able to connect societal ills to the carnage of failure in the marriage home. There is much truth to be found in this course. I love how Paul reminds or teaches simple truth such as, why we marry, so we might experience joy and happiness. I love how he focuses on all aspects of who we are. Paul is able to do that in such a deeply honest and kind way (non-offensive and diplomatic) – protecting the worth of individuals and marriage – as he communicates important points. We are spiritual. We are emotional. We are physical beings. In addressing relationships especially between husband and wife we have to address all of what we are. Paul seeks to bring out the best in relationships. Anyway, like I said, I’m not a great communicator but I recognize great communicators. I do love the way that Paul is able to communicate hard or abstract concepts and thoughts into something we can understand enough to put into practice. I could come go on and on and on..”

Cynthia

“I must say after 3 weeks, things are much better between wife and I. Thanks for the materials, the moral support and your prayers, they are working to the positive in my marriage. I was distraught when I started your courses. Best Regards,”

Tim Nations

“Hi, I completed the marriage course a while ago and it has made a major difference to our marriage. Our situation is complicated by the fact my wife has mental health issues and chronic fatigue syndrome which has contributed to marriage issues over the journey. Now I only want her to get better. I hate seeing her struggle, and want to encourage her to make some small changes. She struggles with energy, motivation and hates her job. She has low self esteem, has put on a lot of weight, has little social life and when she is not working, she is in bed generally watching tv. Sometimes, i can see she is physically exhausted. Other times, this is a choice (which is ok as we all deserve downtime) My opinion is (i keep this to myself) they are intrinsically linked, ie her mental health has contributed to her physical issues. Her psychiatrist has alluded to the same thing. For further background, she also attempted suicide 8 years ago (5 years prior to chronic fatigue diagnosis, she didn’t have that at the time) and has had mental health issues most of her life. Our marriage by the way is not as big a concern for her now as it was a few months ago before TMF course.The SEW method helps me keep my opinions to myself and just be supportive. Having been together for 17 years i don’t believe my wife has the will power or mental or physical strength to make any meaningful changes in her life. You will never know how much your course has helped me find happiness. You have taught me things I never knew existed.”

Benjamin

“As I am taking all the courses in preparation to become a counselor and I have listened to the Cause and Effect session probably 30 times or more. It was soooooo freeing, knowing that HE AND THE WOMAN HE HAS HAD AN EMOTIONAL AFFAIR WITH FOR TWO YEARS, are agents to my KARMA. I find myself mentally thanking him for being an agent to my KARMA. I know I am to be a counselor after watching the marriage my parents had and the 2 I year I have been through with mine. Mine is different for ME, thanks to Paul Friedman and I am eternally grateful!!!”

Ellen

“Hi there The good part of this course is that it really helped me calm my mind down and respond to my wife and kids in a tone that does not show my anger. My wife has moved back to our bedroom, I guess that’s what I really wanted. Thanks for getting me there.”

Ian Z

Bend, OR

“Hi, Having nearly finished the program, I can testify it has made an amazing difference to our marriage, we are both much happier and the future is very positive us. Our marriage now feels very healthy, our communication is now also very healthy and open. My wife has commented a couple of times how much I have changed and has thanked me mentioning she is grateful to feel loved and appreciated again.”

Steven D

“Have covered the fist two chapters and eagerly awaiting for the next part as I need to desperately improve as quickly as possible. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed and can see a lot of the issues / mistakes from my side of things; wish I’d know about this course before I got married which would have been coming up to 30 years. Going to re-evaluate the SEW methods so I can get it drilled into me.”

“I Pastored the same church for 35 years. Found The Marriage Foundation at 50 years of marriage and rekindled our teen age love! I believe Paul’s idea of not finding and focusing the problem but instituting unconditional love and controlling the mind. Two scriptures.” Be you transformed by the renewing of your mind. “ and “but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God.”

“Excellent Paul …………. being present is the key to life , don’t let our bodies, or emotions become US! very very pertinent , and true! I will be married 23 years next month , and yes the familiarity bug has hit us like many many others , to be conscious , of our thoughts , actions, responses , and RE-actions (another word for responses lol) mean everything , see the issue is not “not loving” our spouses , we love them , it’s the fact , that you can love your brother or sister with this type of love expression , which can dull , and fizzle out the flame of marriage …… what’s the 1st step in your opinion to unravel this mindset , OR did miss something in the video”

“Hi Dr Friedman. Your content is absolutely fantastic. I will be teaching my kids when they reach marriage age of how to be in a marriage. Your beautiful advice remindes me of the verse:- ‘Another of His signs is that He created spouses from among yourselves for you to live with in tranquillity: He ordained love and kindness between you. There truly are signs in this for those who reflect’. Quran, chapter 30, verse 21”

“The TMF Counselor course is the best training course I will ever experience. The wisdom is profound; the implications eternal. I can’t recommend all of his courses enough. They are life-changing in unimaginably beneficial ways. The entire world transforms beautifully when we take the TMF courses. Opportunities arise, happiness surmounts, relationships intensify, and the world fills with joy! I can’t imagine what the world would have been like without the TMF training. My heart would break into a million pieces if I thought of the alternative. Nothing compares to the TMF training.”

It is helping me to look at myself and my part in this relationship As it is there now is a wedge/distance between me and my wife because I tried to take a conversation about our relationship deep. It led me to thinking of ending our marriage after 14 years. Do not get me wrong, we both share blame as to why this marriage should not have continued, because I was not able to find the love I had for her. I want the best for wife and myself. Now I see hope.”

With your help, I have been working really hard- sometimes I slip up and that’s usually when I write in. The responses always step me back on track. Here I am some months later preparing to celebrate our wedding anniversary! September seems like a lifetime ago and I’m still reviewing the course material periodically. I just want to say thanks for the support and the lessons. I am truly seeing the vast power that I have in my marriage- just as you said. God bless you all.”

“Hi there. I just finished taking notes on Dealing with a Cheating Husband . It’s such a beautiful concept. I genuinely appreciate Paul’s view on free will his candid views are revolutionary. They make more sense than anything I studied in my two or three psychology classes. If I had a choice between the master’s degree education I received or TMF’s courses, I’d pick TMF. TMF made more of a difference in my life than anything else I’ve encountered. TMF is better than any religious text, although I enjoy reading sacred texts. Thank you for bringing light and joy into this world!”

“You are soooooo Correct. I have pushed my husband to this and I have taken the course. I admit I have done some backsliding and pray it is not too late to still make a difference back to where it was heading. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! I need to go through the course again.”

Janel D

“I took Paul’s course and have learned to not reacting to my wife’s behaviour and just love her as she is and not make things worse. This is my 3rd marriage and thank God I came to find his solution. Marriage therapy never worked for any of my three marriages. Thank you Paul!”

Micheal B

Independence, OH

“I am an engineer. After 2 divorces I “mapped” out the human condition and came to the same conclusions as Paul. I then took his courses and have bettered myself as a human soul with info I was never taught. I have still not yet met my soul mate (or even a girl friend), but I have found a way of life and happiness I choose as the evolution of my soul, and I like it! Thanks Paul; I hope you will create a course for those who are not married too, as I believe this/your philosophy is a divine path to happiness, love and dignity.”

“Even Paul has said everyone has their breaking point and this week was mine. I was almost catatonic at one point, so all things considered the SEW this week has been a life saver. I have stopped taking the anxiety medication and am practicing reading listening to SEW all day long for the past week.”

“All things great In one day I will write for you how much my life has changed in very positive way I can feel my husband’s guard coming down a bit, even in just the last 24 hours. I’m truly shocked but am hesitant to feel excited. But that’s not using SEW now is it? Lol”

“Hey there, Just wanted to give an update. As I’ve worked on myself and focused on making all of my interactions with my wife positive experiences where I’ve been intentional to be respectful, courteous, considerate, kind, and helpful with the kids and a number of things, I’ve seen progress everyday. My wife is engaging me in conversation. Two days ago she brought me lunch. Tonight she told my son to bring her phone over to me so I could watch the video on it and laugh with them. I felt a very good moment there as she watched me and waited to see my laughter as I watched it. These are all good things and I seem to see more of them everyday.”

“Paul is humble but exceptionally wise! He transformed my life into a tremendous place. I can’t thank him and TMF enough. His wisdom is so far-reaching! You’ll see more of it in the TMF Counselor course. How does one human become so evolved that a half-hour discussion has infinitely beautiful implications? He’s my guru. He’s a Saint!”

Eugene M

“I’m a wife and mother of 2. I watched your video on being a better wife to my hubby. Loved it. Only rolled my eyes once lol. Everything else was spot on. I am a little surprised the message for women was a half hour long and the message for men was 7 minutes. But if you think about it, we women talk a bit more and need more clarification most times lol. Makes sense. Keep up the good work sir!”

Norman E

Orlando, FL

“Dear Team!
I hope you are all doing well!
I confess that it took me a LONG time to complete the course! Although some of the knowledge has been there, controlling my mind and emotions were so so hard! The problems would always speak louder and I would continue with my old behavior! It was only until I heard my husband say for the first time the word divorce! It shook me! I ran to Paul’s YouTube page and found his advice in regards to what to not do if your husband asks for a divorce! I tried to follow the steps and also ran back to complete the course! I can say that once my behaviour shifted my husbands mood also shifted INSTANTLY! The house was a lot more peaceful, I was taking accountability for my behaviour and mistakes, my feminine side started flourishing and he calmed down! I am now going through the course again and will continue to do so until I am the person I truly want to be! There is still a female friend in the picture from my husband’s side but now more than ever I believe she will go, without me fighting them! The more I fought the more he would run to her. I am truly focused on me and my growth and looking forward to do everything with love from now on!”’

Chester

Pacifica, CA

“Hi! I just wanted to let you know I am forever grateful that I came across this website. My husband has told me he’s noticed my changes in responses to situations. He wanted a divorce in December and I was devastated. I started the women’s course immediately and practiced the SEW method every second. I even told my children about it because it’s beneficial to all aspects of life. He told me at the end of January that he doesn’t want a divorce anymore. Since then it’s been great! I can’t even compare it to anything else. I’m so so so happy to have had this opportunity to learn about my biology, the trauma responses I’ve always acted on, the reasons why I react so negatively. The perspective I’ve learned throughout the course is immeasurable. I will recommend this course to everybody I know. It’s beneficial to everybody regardless of martial status, age or gender. The logic and explanation seems like common sense but for me it opened my eyes and heart to so much. I feel happier and fee  l like I have clarity and know my purpose now. I will share and practice all the knowledge I’ve learned for the rest of my life. Thank you so much for all the work and dedication you’ve put into these courses.”

I didn’t realize that I had changed but if that’s what I have to do to win him back then I will do that. We had a little Romantic moment reminiscing about our Marriage and our Sons. I was feeling great and think that maybe the “Shift” has happened. “

“Thank U so much for your videos. Especially this one. I’ve been separated from my husband for 5mths, and we just can’t seem to get the communication right even though we’ve been seeing each throughout the separation. We always seem to butt heads and wind up fighting over the least little things. I’ve tried other relationships videos and courses but nothing seem to work. Until I came across yours. I really love the way U express how we should express love and support, and learn to communicate better so we can get along and have a happy marriage. And it’s starting to work. But, it does take work. Thank U so much. Now I have hope again, and will not give up on my 10yr marriage.”

“Good morning, I hope you are terrific today. I began the course for men on January 24 and thought I was progressing as I began to see and feel changes in my life. Still when around my wife I struggled to keep the overwhelming negative reactions from taking me over. Hopefully now, since I received a reply email over a week ago stating I have not been using the SEW technique, I have learned my lesson. I have noticed I am calmer since I’ve started using the SEW technique again on all my thoughts, feelings and anything else that comes into or I feel arising in my mind.”

Larrie

“I wrote once at the beginning of the course and now I’m writing again, 5 months+ after beginning the course. I have seen benefits form this course, I’m doing my best to implement the SEW method, to change my way of thinking, and to approach each situation as calmly and supportively as I can. Your course confirmed to me what I knew and felt spiritually to be the truth, and has helped me deal with almost any situation in a more deeply understanding and loving manner.”

“Hi,

I am writing to share some feedback.  I am now paying attention the milestones as outlined in the course and I am aware that I have a long way to go.  At this time I am really trying to use the SEW on my thoughts which I wasn’t doing previously.  Somehow I missed that step my first time through the course and I was only focusing on stopping my outer emotions/ words. In the last week as a couple we have gotten 3 separate compliments on our marriage.

The first was a convenience store employee who asked us how long we’d been together and then stated that we have a very positive energy together. The second was a coworker of both of us who wished us “Happy Valentine’s Day to the most in love couple I know” The third was a friend who joked that they were envious of our relationship and how happy we are together. All of this in the past week.  I feel motivated.  It’s hard to believe that just 1 year ago the word divorce came up in our conversations.  (Of course nobody else knows that.  We have kept everything between us)

Thank you to the marriage foundation for being there for us/ for me. “

Abegail Tracie

“Thank you. I’m committed to make the complete change for myself and my marriage. I believe in this training program and at some later think I want to join the counselors. I have to say this by far one of the hardest things I’ve had to go through but I’m growing. I’ll be married 25 years in July so I have a lot to undo but I’m doing it, something I would have never thought I could do. I appreciate all the help for all the counselors and especially Paul. I wish that some of the counselors would share their success stories about how their marriages changed.”

“Dear Counsellor,
Thank you to Paul and the entire TMF family! I made it to the end of the course and I don’t just feel accomplished yet but I feel empowered. I have had a couple of slips ups when my emotions whipped me but I unburdened to a counselor and kept it away from my husband and importantly I didn’t share it with anyone. I am happy I did this course bc I recognized so many ways that I held back love from my husband and as I correct those – I am seeing subtle changes in him. I will continue to listen the videos in the car on my to work etc. I will continue to work on watching my mind and guarding my thoughts. I might still need to write to you, if I get in an emotional ‘battle’ but I hope not much. Continue to help and pray for marriages the world over. May God continue to bless you richly.”

“Thank you for your wisdom. I am on the crossroads in my life with a husband who has put me through a roller coaster for almost 18 years. He can be the sweetest and most loving one day and very demanding and critical the next day. I’m suffering from depression and anxiety and often I have to hide it from him to avoid gaslighting. He refuses any kind of help or counseling and  extremely confident. I didn’t want to leave yet but I’m at the end of my rope and out of options after trying all I could to improve this marriage. I feel like I’m stuck forever.”

Before I just thought it was normal. Now I see it differently. In other areas of my life I find it easier to turn the negative into a positive using the SEW technique.”

Natasha

“Dear Counselor, I greet you well! I completed the course last week and thinking of where I was 3 months ago to now, I am feeling and dealing with issues now is 100% times better. Since I watched the anatomy of a fight videos and applied the SEW technique I only had one slip up and after I saw the consequences, I worked even harder not to have a repeat. My husband is now quite nice and is home much more. I have observed that he spends less time on his phone. He is even busy making and organizing repairs to our home.”

I found she was open to me not being negative. BOY, IS PAUL EVER RIGHT ABOUT HOW WE AS MEN TEACH OUR WOMEN TO BE NEGATIVE AND AGGRESSIVE. UGH. But! Now there is hope and God will bring us all closer to him. Cheers”

Christopher Manley

Florence, AL

“I hadn’t mentioned this before, but I’m a Messianic Jew, and find Paul’s style and substance to be both fulfilling and sufficient. By fulfilling I mean it aligns with the principles of faith that I believe in. By sufficient I mean he provides us with a clear understanding of the mind — I don’t need to have someone tell me why he loves his dog, just that he does. By the same token, I don’t need to read a popular psychology book on marriage or on the mind: what Paul says is based in love — is there anything more important or fundamental?”

It reminded me of something J— O— has said: “Don’t pray for victory, and then call in defeat” He was referring to those who pray for some turnaround event, but continue to wallow in the depths of gossip, bad thoughts, and victimhood. Say what you want about Pastor J—, he’s got some wise and Godly observations. JUST LIKE PAUL!”

I’m afraid we wouldn’t be getting these messages from anywhere else if you weren’t doing this, and my life and all of the lives I touch, would be so much unhappier if I didn’t find your messages, and if I didn’t get constant reminders about them.

OUR BOOKS

LESSONS FOR A HAPPY MARRIAGE

Paul’s first book is simple and effective. Although it is a wonderful and accurate overlay for marriage we recommend one of the courses when your marriage is on a steep slide toward separation and divorce.

BREAKING THE CYCLE

Again and again we hear from clients, marriage counselors, and clergy that the principles taught by The Marriage Foundation are revolutionary because they unravel the so-called “mysteries of marriage” and reduce everything to practical do’s and don’ts. 

BTC is similar but deeper than Lessons for a Happy Marriage and we still recommend one of the courses when your marriage is on a steep slide toward separation and divorce.

“Thank you, for your wisdom and for creating the course! I’m learning so much about myself—which is a beautiful thing.”

“Thank you so much. I am blessed by your teaching. I now realize that love is the ultimate despite the differences in beliefs. When you show your partner that pure love of God towards him or her then maybe through that God can open there eyes to see things the way you see it but if that doesn’t happen still let love leads.”

What they are doing to me as a soul is unbelievable. The impact it’s having on everyone in my life is something to always be cherished. The incredible wisdom you’ll gain from the courses will bring love, friendship, and even wealth and health you’ve never before imagined. It’s the biggest game changer of my life! It will be for you, too, the more and more you internalize the wisdom! You must get at least the books. You deserve the bliss it will bring you and every life you touch!”
