I would also add that even the simple act if recognizing that you're "caught up" is a success in itself. Every moment is an opportunity for mindfulness, whether your driving, working, or whatever you happen to be doing.

I would also recommend providing some time for breath meditation (just ten minutes per day starting out). It's surprising how much a consistent meditation practice can promote mindfulness during the day (and night). You might also find moments to be mindful during activities, such as drinking a cup of tea mindfully after meditation.

So do what you can do. The dreams will return.
