I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'feeling of wellbeing' is the definition.
'euphoria' can be an answer for 'feeling' (euphoria is a kind of feeling). I'm not certain of the 'of wellbeing' bit.

'hope stimulated around university upturn in attitude' is the wordplay.
'stimulated' is an anagram indicator (letters made active or stimulated).
'around' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'university' becomes 'U' (abbreviation for university).
'upturn in' says the letters should be written backwards.
'attitude' becomes 'air' (I've seen this before).
'air' back-to-front is 'ria'.
'hope' with letters rearranged gives 'epho'.
'epho' going around 'u' is 'eupho'.
'eupho'+'ria'='EUPHORIA'
