Here's one trick to get out of a "suffering state" and get to a "beautiful state":
Silently in your head, send blessings (joy, happiness, love, inner peace, etc.) to people that you encounter in life and people that are playing a part in your thoughts. Do this whenever you feel the oncoming of an unnecessary negative emotion.
After 30 to 90 days, a new habit will be formed. And, probably, a new default peaceful internal state.

It sounded like fluff when I first came across it but so far it's helped me relate to perhaps unsavoury mind states in more healthy ways.
