It is all very interesting indeed! However, it seems to me like worrying over ones image 'in the mirror' instead the 'One' who makes the image.
You are not your brain or its various and multiple vibrations anymore than you are emotions or the hormones and enzymes that orchestrate them as again 'the body reflection in the mirror'.
The deeper Self is master of all this. That is why 'purpose' is so critical. If you purpose and desire 'to know' then even if your body vehicles are not up the challenge; if you persist to know they will 'upgrade' to the occasion. Make it a habit with you and the 'upgrade' hardens to more permanence.
Some call it evolution, some call it self-development, others, making the most of ones self and still others the salvation of the soul.
But reverse it and degrade and we all generally agree to call that deplorable.
Huh?
