Morphology

inner + peace

The meaning 'a state of mental and emotional calm' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'inner' (internal) with 'peace' (absence of worry), yielding the straightforward idea of peace within oneself. This adjective+noun composition is cross-linguistically common and follows regular compositional patterns, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will likely understand the MWE.

Etymology

Inner peace comes from the simple image of a quiet place inside you, with inner meaning 'inside' and peace meaning 'quiet' or 'calm'. People pictured a calm room in their mind where noise and worry cannot reach, so the phrase now means 'a calm, worry-free state'.
