I learned that technique way back in Firefighter I and Firefighter II as a way to regain control of your breathing and the situation and to use less air by being more relaxed and in control.  Also works great to lower your blood pressure during physicals  and rehab   I teach it to others when see them all "huffy and puffy" after a drill evolution, and it also works when trying to calm patients who are hyperventilating!
