The Kabbalistic and Chassidic works speak about sweetening the Din (judgment). Don't get caught up in the jargon of the literal meaning of the terminology. It is really just discussing something that we do every day of our lives.
המתקת הדינים, sweetening the judgement, is accomplished when a person reveals the presence of Hashem from within the hiddeness. When a person is in an inspired state this is accomplished by all sorts of lofty Mitzvah activities, when a person is not inspired it is accomplished by working on finding new inspiration (חיזוק).
When a person exerts himself to find God from within his difficulties and challenges he is engaged in sweetening the judgement. He is faced with a choice of remaining in a dark and uninspired state, and he chooses to turn the darkness to light, the bitter to sweet.
