Speaking of the body, in seven years, every singe cell in your body has been replaced. That means that by the time you are 21, you’ve already lived through three different bodies!
So, awareness doesn’t rely on a constant body.
The body is constantly changing.
The mind is constantly changing.
That is not completely true, some cells don't get replaced and stay a lifetime, this includes the central nervous system, like neurons

They may not be replaced but they age and change. So, they cannot be an unchanging self.
Neurons certainly account for brain activity. In fact, different types of brain activity can be mapped out in different parts of the brain, which I am sure you are
aware of too.
Your argument is that when the neurological
activity ceases, awareness ceases. Correct?
And that would suggest that the electricity in the brain either
possesses awareness, or
is awareness. Correct? One might say that it
produces awareness, but then you’d have to ask “For whom? Whose awareness is it?”
EMPTIFUL.
An inward outlook produces outward insight.
