Part of this is caused by biostasis: that is animals will, for various reasons, often enter the opposite physiological state after experiencing something intense.

For example, if you get an adrenaline jolt because something scary happens, you may feel even more relaxed after the incident has passed.

Part of this is evolutionary and part of it is just biochemical (your body is a feedback loop with lag).
