When the body is relaxed, resting, or feeding, the parasympathetic nervous system is in charge of the body's rest and digesting response. After a stressful incident, it basically undoes the work of sympathetic division. The parasympathetic nerve system slows breathing and heart rate while speeding up digestion.

I hope this helps.
