To balance your system. Your metabolism works best within a narrow range of pH (acid content). Your automated system will occasionally make a correction by taking in a deep breath and having you exhale more CO2 which is a acid factor. By slowing/speeding or changing the depth of your breathing your body adjusts your blood acid content. The kidneys help this too but you won't notice.
