Upper body tremors in back are present while in bed. I woke up with them. They fade in and out repeatedly 

My balance improved after reading while bent over on my elbows on a table

My upper body tremors do not go away, sitting on my elbows or perhaps swimming may be causing this, my lingering low back pain or something else...

I went to church and sang hymns, perhaps that and the relief of my anxiety alleviated my upper body tremor. My ears were plugged too. Not sure if that helps. Either way, I look only to God to end my suffering

When I sit inclined in apanasana on my sofa the tremor goes immediately to my low back. When I sit regular it moves to my neck, the frequency quietly lingers for 15 or seconds then fades out then right back again

Sitting in this position has quieted tremor the most today- see photos. My balance is restored afterwards as well. Maybe closing my knees to my chest is restorative, I’ll try to sleep in fetal position and see what happens

 Woke up too early with no felt tremors- had to urinate. Stayed in bed, slept for an hour or two longer- woke up with mild tremor in upper body  My left arm and hand felt jittery this morning. It resembled the earlier phase, my hands were a slightly twitchy again when I move them Went swimming and became confused at how much time has passed. I always spot the wall clock then track it in order to swim for 30 min after. I started at what I thought was 11:55am then noticed that it 11:30am later. I can't remember if I started at 11:55am or 10:55am. Regardless I made a mental note to leave when the big hand touches 25 after. It did, and I couldn't believe how fast it was. I was just warmed up so I decided to go 15 minutes after. I haven't noticed much vertigo today so far. Hands are still jittery, I think my anxiety amps this

3/2/22 Been experiencing resting tremors for the past two days, I feel them when sitting, standing and lying down. Pretty low profile but sometimes considerably noticeable. It may be an off and on occurrence or nonstop with me ignoring it Later that night I had a slow and meditative hour to read, I believe the tremors stopped or were great supressed as much Went to bed right after and felt it again, I kept my body straight and focused on my breath and the tremors were stopped or suppressed, it was a great enough effort to ignore them. But I noticed exactly where it was coming from: my right leg in the glute area. I felt blood circulating there followed by abrupt muscle twitches in the thigh. Following that my thumb and index fingers twitched in a shorter manner but still as abrupt During bed I also felt more movement in my abdomen than usual followed with sounds

Woke up obsessed with ideas. I let them brew all through breakfast. Dizziness is creeping in, nowhere near full effect but noticed Higher mental stress occurred at work. Balance disorder came in at higher intensity. Manageable still. A nervous left arm as well After a slow and controlled yoga session, my balance was near fully restored Went to drawing group and felt a dose of balance disorder. It felt as if I would randomly lose sense of it in my arm, like my control would just slip momentarily while I drew. I drew well- I was able to hold the pencil still onto paper, but I didn't feel competent. Maybe it had something to do with the past awful interaction I had with the model, it was definitely on my mind as I noticed her presence and I suspect it was on hers as well since she made the effort to ignore me years ago
