Reflex Rabbit
Put the pronoun in the right place every time — and say your day out loud.
A reflexive verb carries a pronoun that matches its subject — me, te, se, nos, se: Me levanto a las siete (I get up at seven). The pronoun goes before a conjugated verb; with an infinitive or gerund you have two equally correct options — attach it (Voy a ducharme) or move it before the helper (Me voy a duchar). The pronoun often changes the meaning: dormir (sleep) vs dormirse (fall asleep), ir vs irse (leave), poner (put) vs ponerse (put on). And with body parts, Spanish uses the article, not a possessive: me lavo las manos, never mis manos.
Below: pronoun placement, the meaning-shift pairs, sequencing a full routine — and how you practise it by narrating your actual day in conversation, not with pronoun drills.

Your grammar teacher for this pack
There are no pronoun drills here. In the Reflex Rabbit lessons you talk, and Carla gets you narrating the routines where reflexives live: your real morning (primero me levanto y luego me ducho), getting ready for an event, your wind-down before bed (antes de acostarme, me lavo los dientes). Then she plays with the pairs that trip everyone — me dormí en el sofá versus plain dormir — until the little pronoun starts placing itself.
Blank mid-sentence and nothing bad happens — she waits. That's the practice, without unnecessary judgement.

Quick answers
One whose pronoun matches the subject because the action loops back onto it: Me levanto (I get up), ¿Te duchas por la mañana o por la noche? (do you shower in the morning or at night?). Drop the pronoun and the meaning breaks — it's Me levanto, not levanto, for 'I get up'.
Before a conjugated verb. With infinitives and gerunds, either attached or before the helper — Voy a ducharme and Me voy a duchar are both right. Commands: attach when affirmative (¡Levántate!), separate when negative (No te acuestes tarde).
Dormir = to sleep, dormirse = to fall asleep: Duermo ocho horas vs Me dormí en clase. The same shift powers ir / irse (go / leave), poner / ponerse (set / put on) and llamar / llamarse (call / be called).
With body parts and clothing, the reflexive pronoun already says whose they are, so Spanish uses the definite article: me lavo las manos (I wash my hands), me pongo el abrigo (I put on my coat).
Same pronouns, past endings: Ayer me levanté muy temprano (preterite, one event); De niño me duchaba antes de cenar (imperfect, a past habit).
