Mirror, Mirror Off The Wall: A year without mirrors - why? Kjerstin Gruys has decided NOT to look into a mirror or reflection for a year. The idea came from The Birth of Venus by Sarah Dunats, about Italian nuns who lived with high regulation against vanity. And they've been some unexpected benefits for Ms Gruys - dip into her blog and discover why: http://www.ayearwithoutmirrors.com/
