Interesting thought exercise to look at one's body complex, notice unique features, and explore how those could serve oneself spiritually.
I empathize with the last. I have always been small (short and thin). People have treated me as if I were younger than I am my whole life. It bothered me when I was a younger (because people talked down to me), but I don't have much reaction to it any longer. People make assumptions based on appearances (and I do as well). It leads to communication, and greater understanding.
I have manageable hyperacusis which, in times of stress, flares up. The experiences are unsettling, but to me, it's a warning sign for which I am very grateful. It signals to me that my MBS is overwhelmed and I need to take care.
Nowadays, my wonderful body, which has served me so well, is showing the beginning signs of aging. I am interacting with that process and watching/experiencing what arises.
