Portuguese term or phrase: boa disposição
"Entenda a importância de beber 2 a 4 litros de água por dia. Sua saúde vai mudar. Muitos problemas que você sente poderão desaparecer somente por você passar a beber a água que seu organismo precisa. Tome a decisão: vou beber 2 a 4 litros de água por dia. Vou beber 1 copo de água de uma em uma hora, mesmo que não tenha sede. Vou manter meu corpo bem hidratado. Água é vida. Água é defesa. Água é desintoxicação. Água é boa disposição. Água é saúde."

What would be the equivalent in English? Thanks in advance.
