I personally classify it as a heavy attack strum, if i try to go easy to get a more brushing strum i miss the strings at least 90% of the times.

Try to make a conscious effort to be lighter with your strumming. You want the pick to glide over the strings. Don't dig in too far. Keep your arm, hands & fingers free of tension. The longer you work with your picking lightly, gradually it will become automated. But the more you practice at it without using a lighter touch the more you are simply training your brain & hands to play too heavily.

Best of success with it! Ask more if necessary.
