How about?

That's a revelation
or, worded it in a more defining way
my own experience has shown me that to be more centered I do need a place within me and I do have one already in place.

When my cottage burned down, it was not just the physical place I went to for rest and renewal. I carried another safe feeling with me.
Recognizing there is one in place..one that wouldn't go up in fire.
Allowing also means permission to do it; to depend on what is already within me to be my focus...not on an external place.
