Morphology
The meaning is compositionally derivable: 'find' (to obtain or reach) combined with 'peace' (inner tranquility) naturally yields 'reach or achieve a state of tranquility.' This figurative but straightforward combination is common across languages and should be understandable to a B1 learner who knows both words.
Etymology
Find peace paints a simple picture: someone keeps looking until they find a quiet, safe spot of peace, like walking out of a noisy storm into a calm garden. So, it means 'to feel calm inside after difficulty'.
