I agree on the help of meditation and maybe psychedelics to reflect on yourself and reach some consciousness.
"Because I know that one does not even have to identify with the face that stares back at them in the mirror"
But in my experience, this would be the point, where psychonauts start loosing the connection to physical reality.
Because sure, my face is not my identity. But it reflects very strongly my physical identity/reality.
So if your mind does not make a connection with the face it sees in the mirror, then I would start to worry, as then your mind and body is already quite seperated.
