We all know we are meant to sing with a relaxed jaw but is yours relaxed?  Really?  Have you checked it lately? 
If you're having trouble with a note or passage, check your jaw.  Most of us hold tension there - especially when we're "working hard."  Don't assume just because you know your jaw "should" be relaxed, that it is.  Check it.  And then  - gently relax it.  There now, isn't that better?
