How Do You Uplift Yourself Emotionally

[Jessie & Jason]

I have tried so many ways to uplift myself by finding comfort in the reality that i know exists such as food, tv or calling friends. I was hoping they would help me to remove my focus from my issues and i would feel better. It did many times help only to go back to the same problem as soon as i am in my thoughts. I think the real definition of uplifting myself if i am honest to myself is by facing my fears and worries until they transform and by the power of that transformation uplifting energy scoops me up as an extension of my inner transformation. Can any one else relate with this?
