Le Corps

Don't be afraid of clicking on our skinned and somewhat unsightly Vitruvian Man / Chef - he's a visual aid and he's here to help. Afterall, as Aristotle would have us know: "The soul never thinks without an image."

If mind maps aren't your thing - or you have the photogrpahic memory of a mid-range late 90s digital camera - you'll find the various parts of the human body listed alphabetically below. Imagine your mouth as ta bouche, and so on. Simple repetition can go a long way.
