Euneirophrenia - noun.

When you wake up feeling happy and peaceful after a good dream...that's euneirophrenia in action.

The word is derived from Greek and can be broken down thusly:

eu - good
oneiro - dream
phrenia - state of mind

I like it! Of course, when I wake during a good dream, I'm pretty sure I always try to go back to sleep to stay there for a bit longer. Doesn't work... :(
