Solution

Deep breathing is one of the best ways to lower stress in the body. This is because when you breathe deeply, it sends a message to your brain to calm down and relax. The brain then sends this message to your body. Those things that happen when you are stressed, such as increased heart rate, fast breathing, and high blood pressure, all decrease as you breathe deeply to relax.
scientific explanation of this phenomena is more complex and need to know more about the working of each type of nueron associated with breathing.
As a whole, deep breathing reduces the speed of specific body functions which are at a high speed during emergency situations.eg heart beat rate, conversion of energy etc. Hope you understand.all the best.
