Hello Tariq ,
I think your wife is having epileptic episodes !

Two things in the history is supporting my diagnosis, one is stretched jaws and pulling of body and second is feeling fatigue after every episodes ! The epileptic episodes might be triggered by some lesion in brain(can be seen in CT/MRI Brain) or just due to some physiological causes (can NOT be seen in CT/MRI Brain).

I advice you to visit nearby Neurologist, he will start some epilepsy preventing medicines and other necessary advices !!

hope my info helped you
