معنی
Feeling satisfied and at peace.
زمینه فرهنگی
The phrase is deeply tied to the concept of 'obitelj' (family). A Croatian's heart is rarely 'na mjestu' if their family members are in trouble or far away. In coastal regions, this phrase is often associated with the sea and the return of sailors. The 'place' for the heart is often the home port. In the agricultural heartland, the phrase might be used when the harvest is safely stored before winter, ensuring the family's survival. For the millions of Croatians living abroad, this phrase is a linguistic 'homing beacon' used during summer visits to the homeland.
The Dative Secret
Always remember the small words: mi, ti, mu, joj. Without them, the phrase sounds like a medical textbook.
Don't Overuse
If you say it every time you find a parking spot, it loses its magic. Save it for the big sighs of relief.

It is always 'mjestu' (short 'e'). 'Mijesto' is a common spelling error even for some natives, but incorrect.
You can, but it sounds like you're translating from English. 'Srce mi je na mjestu' is much more natural.
There isn't one exact idiom, but 'Srce mi je nemirno' (My heart is restless) or 'Nisam na miru' (I am not at peace) work well.
No, 'Glava mi je na mjestu' would mean you are sensible or sane, not necessarily relieved or happy.
