I’m new to this also but I will say I was doing the same and one thing that helped me was stretching my hands and fingers! It’s not stressed enough. Making sure I stretched really improved my range of motion and then I didn’t need to tense as much. Also watching posture and sitting position. Good Luck! Oh, also I’m struggling with tensing with my strumming so what I have done, because I’m really inconsistent and so I tense and then get worse, is just pick it up when I’m watching a movie for example and just strum kind of without paying attention just as a muscle memory type thing and within like 2 days it helped tons. Hope this helps!
