Yes, meditation and study...study of whatever teaching touches a chord in you.
Begin to consider that you are created of peace; this is how and why you can find inner peace...it already exists joyously within you. It is not hiding...you are hiding. Stop hiding, and seek it. You will find it.
Don't give up.

Finding peace is a highly individual practice. Some may find peace by listening to soft music. Some by walking alone in a forest, a meadow, or along the seashore. Others may find peace by practicing the Silence. Some find inner peace by turning off the news broadcasts! Meditation is the most popular way of finding peace which helps the individual go within to calm the mind and rid the consciousness of unsettling thoughts.

NO -meditation works when we can meditate without the world trying 2 give u tensions inadvertently or inadvertently
So only way out is to b yourself -b happy as u r -content MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS and try to do ur best in life leave the outcome to God -dont bother about others unless u feel they need ur help or ask for it love all hate none and INNER PEACE WILL SHINE FORTH when clouds of hatred anger jealousy etc. r not there!

Remove "ego" from you. Be with the present moment always. Don't think about "past", as we/you can not do any thing now for what has happened earlier. Don't think about the "future", as we/you don't know what is going to happen to you in the next moment. You have full control over the present moment only. Try to utilise it to the fullest and enjoy what you are doing. Being in the "present moment" and accepting "reality" will help you to find "inner peace". Always keep in mind that "you will always get what you actually require than what you want". You may not get what you want, but will definitely get what you actually require.

Be one with the universe.
You don't have to look for peace if you never lost it.
As Purna said - Be Good. Do Good. See Good.
Never let envy, hatred or greed come close to you. Get close to nice and happy people. Learn a new skill and celebrate and enjoy life.
You don't have to forgive if you never accused others at the first place.
Be compassionate and kind to yourself and others. Be Samdarshi - If you try to see same God everywhere, you'll find peace everywhere.

Meditation is one way, yes. I find most of my inner peace in nature, in the beauty of a flower, the sound of a bee, the flight of a bird. It is different for each of us. For me, my church and my worship is outside in God's world. I also find peace and enlightenment in music and art.

I find that inner peace comes with forgiveness and focusing less on the materialistic properties of life.

Meditation certainly helps. Focusing within until you can feel nothing but the ebb and flow of the Divine presence.

Four Stages of Development
Stage I: Chaotic, antisocial. A stage of undeveloped spirituality. The Stage 1 person is selfish, disordered, and generally incapable of loving others.
Stage II: Formal, institutional. The stage II person, typified by many churchgoers, is usually attached to the forms rather than the essence of her religion, and she may quickly take offense at anyone who attacks these forms. Personal stability and outward appearances are very important to her.
Stage III: Skeptic, individual. The stage III person is often referred to as a “nonbeliever” because he has given up being “conventional”. He thinks independently and is often deeply involved in social causes. An advanced stage III individual is an active truth-seeker.
Stage IV: Mystic, communal. This is the stage of unity. A person arriving at stage 4 sees an underlying connectedness between herself, other creatures, and her surroundings. With little or no outside prodding, and as a confident yet humble, self governing human being, she reaches out to others in recognition of the whole world as part of her community. “Mystics” comprehend the value of emptiness. Rather than being frightened by the enormity of the unknown, they acknowledge it and immerse themselves even deeper into it, that they may understand more.
