Most of my teenage students (all I teach) have problems with this. One thing that has helped is to vocalize on an "oo" vowel, descending 5 tones, very legato. I tell them to make sure they start with a lot of air like saying the word "who" (sort of like an owl). Can also be done more as a sigh rather than worrying about singing each note. Not sure this will help. Obviously, I don't use this on the breathy ones! Looking forward to reading others' ideas.
